The Prime Immunity in Mans State,is that he is most properly the Subject of the Law of Nature.He is the Favourite Animal on Earth;in that this Part of Gods Image,viz.Reason is Congenate with his Nature,wherein by a Law Immutable,Instampt upon his Frame,God has provided a Rule for Men in all their Actions;obliging each one to the performance of that which is Right,not only as to Justice,but likewise as to all other Moral Vertues,which is nothing but the Dictate of Right Reason founded in the Soul of Man.... The Second Great Immunity of Man is an Original Liberty Instampt upon his Rational Nature.He that intrudes upon this Liberty,Violates the Law of Nature.... The Third Capital Immunity belonging to Mans Nature,is an equality amongst Men;Which is not to be denyed by the Law of Nature,till Man has Resigned himself with all his Rights for the sake of a Civil State;and then his Personal Liberty and Equality is to be cherished,and preserved to the highest degree."
