[ 1451] Liberty the cause of Licentiousnesse.

IT was a grave and smart answer of Secretary Walsingham,* 1.1 a great States∣man of that time, when he was consulted by the Queen, about the lawfull∣nesse of Monopoly-Licences; Licentiâ omnes deteriores sumus▪ We are all the worse for Licence: And most true it is, let but the golden raynes of Law and Religion lye any thing loose upon the People shoulders,* 1.2 they will soon be li∣centious enough; If the well-compacted hedge of Discipline and Government be broken down, neither Church or State shall long want those that will intrude upon their Priviledges, and trample all Authority under their feet.
