"I now add, farther, that the apostles argument……" — Jonathan Mayhew

"I now add, farther, that the apostles argument is so far from proving it to be the duty of people to obey, and submit to, such rulers as act in contradiction to the public good, and so to the design of their office, that it proves the direct contrary."

— Jonathan Mayhew
