I Observe There Is In Mr. Hooker

He That Goeth About To Persuade A Multitude That They Are Not So Well Governed As They Ought To Be Shall Never Want Attentive And Favorable Hearers.

For Men To Be Tied And Led By Authority, As It Were With A Kind Of Captivity Of Judgment, And Though There Be Reason To The Contrary Not To Listen Unto It, But To Follow Like Beasts The First In The Herd, They Know Not, Nor Care Not Whither, This Were Brutish.

Of Two Evils We Take The Less.

The Reason Why The Simpler Sort Are Moved With Authority, Is The Consciousness Of Their Own Ignorance; Whereby It Cometh To Pass That Having Learned Men In Admiration, They Rather Fear To Dislike Them Than Know Wherefore They Should Allow And Follow Their Judgments. Contrariwise With Them That Are Skilful Authority Is Much More Strong And Forcible; Because They Only Are Able To Discern How Just Cause There Is Why To Some Men's Authority So Much Should Be Attributed.

Whatsoever Is Good; The Same Is Also Approved Of God.
