Get out of harms way.

Thou camest out of thy mother's belly without government, thou hast liv'd hitherto without government, and thou mayst be carried to thy long home without government, when it shall please the Lord. How many people in this world live without government, yet do well enough, and are well look'd upon?

For neither good nor evil can last for ever; and so it follows that as evil has lasted a long time, good must now be close at hand.
