With a cleare discovery, who are the false prophets, and when they came in. And who they are that deny Christ, and that preach another gospel. And who deny the scriptures, churches, ministers, and magistrates, whereby the magistrates and people of this nation may see they justifie that which the scripture condemns, and condemne that which the holy men of God justified. / By a servant of the Lord, whose name in the flesh is, Edward Burrough.

the_o servant_n of_o the_o lord_n witness_v against_o the_o church_n the_o ministry_n and_o the_o minister_n be_v contrary_a to_o god_n but_o the_o ministry_n which_o be_v to_o the_o seed_n which_o

in_o prison_n magistrate_n and_o magistracy_n we_o deny_v not_o but_o do_v give_v respect_n unto_o for_o conscience_n sake_n for_o who_o bear_v the_o sword_n of_o justice_n who_o use_v their_o power_n to_o be_v a_o terror_n to_o the_o wicked_a and_o for_o the_o praise_n of_o they_o that_o do_v well_o be_v minister_n of_o god_n and_o we_o desire_v that_o there_o be_v more_o magistracy_n here_o and_o
