that_o be_v not_o fit_a you_o be_v party_n and_o therefore_o partial_a and_o no_o competent_a judge_n again_o you_o be_v private_a man_n and_o subject_n and_o therefore_o can_v have_v no_o lawful_a

you_o will_v not_o call_v he_o out_o of_o heaven_n in_o person_n to_o judge_v betwixt_o you_o for_o you_o need_v not_o because_o he_o have_v leave_v his_o law_n and_o judgement_n among_o you_o here_o on_o earth_n record_v in_o his_o own_o book_n of_o the_o old_a &_o new_a testament_n which_o may_v be_v sufficient_a to_o determine_v this_o cause_n without_o any_o further_a assistance_n see_v that_o
