a_o whole_a street_n may_v join_v so_o

together_o to_o keep_v such_o person_n out_o of_o their_o family_n it_o be_v grant_v so_o they_o may_v again_o he_o say_v a_o whole_a town_n may_v join_v together_o and_o so_o a_o whole_a county_n and_o then_o a_o whole_a kingdom_n may_v do_v the_o same_o to_o which_o some_o stander_n by_o seem_v not_o to_o assent_v but_o say_v master_n burrough_n it_o be_v as_o lawful_a in_o the_o last_o

no_o just_a cause_n give_v by_o i_o of_o offence_n to_o these_o two_o worthy_n mr._n burrough_n and_o master_n greenhill_n but_o when_o i_o first_o speak_v it_o upon_o just_a occasion_n i_o do_v it_o to_o their_o honour_n and_o so_o i_o hope_v the_o print_n of_o it_o will_v be_v to_o show_v their_o soundness_n in_o judgement_n against_o such_o error_n now_o if_o master_n john_n goodwin_n do_v
