COming by Chance into St. Laurence-Kirk, Where Preachers did of Old Resistance Jerk, The prating Reader having made an End, I saw your Rev'rence on the Mount ascend, Like Publican-Zacheus, who, to see Jesus pass by, climb'd up into the Tree. My Thanks, good Sir, I must confess is due To penitent Zacheus, and to You. He by Example, You by Preaching, taught (And therein seas'nably reveal'd the Thought Of many Hearts) the Nature and Extent Of that great Duty of the Penitent, Call'd Restitution, which embalms his Tears, Sets him to Rights, and pays off all Arrears: Procures his Pardon from th'offended God, Atones his Vengeance, and do's charm his Rod. Pardon (a) th' Impenitent in vain implore, Impenitent are they that don't (b) Restore To th'wronged Man what was his (c) Own before. (a) No Pardon without Repentance, and no Repentance without Restitution. Dr. Be- veridges Sermon on St. Luke 19. 8. before- mention'd. (b) And as ye have hurt the Name of your Neighbour, or otherwise hindred him, so now intend to Restore it to him again. For without Restitution, God accepteth not your Confession, nor yet your Repen- tance. Book of Homilies, Fol. pag. 286. 120. pag. 465. (c) And so it is still, for Possession does not take away Right, and therefore Zacheus emphatically says, My Goods. Behold Lord, the half of my Goods I give to the Poor-- My Goods, i.e. what remains to me after I have restor'd what I have unjustly taken from another, who has the Right, and not I, though I have the Possession. And what remains when I have made such Restitu- tion, I may truly call my own---Dr. Bev- ut supra. If this be true, Sir, then Your Flock is damn'd, And every swearing Priest that can be nam'd; Who, to detain unjustly, do not dread, The Crown they stole from off their Monarch's Head: Whom by false Accusation they dethron'd, And, as an Abdicating King, disown'd. Tho'* t' Abdicate by Force, seems, by the By, A Monstrous Riddle, and Unlearned Lye: Which to (d) believe, a Judgment is on those, Who think't no Sin their Sov'raign to Depose, Renounce, Abjure, Transfer Allegiance too: And what cannot a debauch'd Conscience do? * To abdicate an Office, supposes a volun- tary Act and the consent of him who quits it: according to Tully, Salust, Livy, etc. (d) For this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a Lye: That they all might be damned who believed not the Truth, but had plea- sure in Unrighteousness, 2 Thess. 2. 11. 12. If RESTITUTION, Sir, must needs be made, Why not to Scepters, as well as to the Spade? If to our Fellow-Subjects we owe that Care, Much more to Kings who God's Vicegerents are. Or is it Lawful to defraud the King, Whil'st we are just to every other Thing? Is it our Duty to do Right to All Except to Him, whom we our Father call? Must God's Laws be obey'd b'our partial Will, Th' Apostles sad (e) Prediction to fulfill? Render to all their Dues, the Gospel says, Directs to strait, condemns all crooked Ways. Restore to th' Wrong'd, and to all Justice do, The Voice of * Moses is, and (f) Jesus too. (e) In the last days perilous times shall come, for Men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous----disobedient to Pa- rents, unthankful, unholy, without Natu- ral Affection, Truce-breakers, False Accu- sers --- Fierce, Despisers of those that are Good, Traytors --- 2 Tim. 3 1, 2, 3, 4. A Text, which 'tis to be wisht a certain Re- verend Divine, [Dr. Sh--ock] who lately preach'd at Whitehall, had gone thorough with. * Lev. 6. 2, 3, 4, 5. (f) Remember the G[o]lden Rule which our Saviour recommends, Whatsoever ye would that Men, etc. Dr. Bev. ut supra. Go preach this Gospel-Doctrine through the Town, Bid 'em Restore who do Usurp the Crown. The Man's (g) alive, and too his injur'd Son, To whom Restore before the (h) Setting-Sun, Or else (sad Fate!) Three Kingdoms are undon. Fill City and Court-Pulpits with the Sound, Cry, (i) RESTITUTION, all the Kingdom round. Fear not, preach, pray (You Leader of the Blind!) Bewitched Subjects to a better Mind. By the Excorcising Art conjure the Devil From Rebel-Hearts, stop the impending Evil. Bid 'em transcribe Zacheuss (k) Honestie, Lest they ascend, not his, but Hamans Tree; (Tho, as Zacheus, so amply to Restore, Will make the Thieves, and frolick Lenders, poor.) Or else descend into the lowest Hell, Where Parricides, Robbers and Rebels dwell: For if the Publican we do contemn, The Publican the Christian will condemn. Bid 'em Repent, do Justice, and Restore, Call home the King, and then Rebel no more. (g) If the Man is alive whom ye have wrong'd, make Restitution to him; or if he is dead, to his Son, or Executor, etc. (h) And I advise you to make no delay, make Restitution before the Sun is set. Id. ibid. (i) Without Restitution to the wrong'd, never expect God's Blessing upon you or yours, etc. Id. ibid. (k) Be just, and act like honest Men, etc. follow the Example in the Text, etc. Id. ib.
