how_o the_o engagement_n can_v possible_o admit_v of_o a_o dispensation_n such_o a_o council_n be_v by_o that_o engagement_n appoint_v as_o a_o representative_a of_o the_o army_n ought_v as_o we_o

the_o army_n notwithstanding_o there_o appear_v less_o safety_n and_o great_a hazard_n and_o i_o believe_v this_o cord_n draw_v on_o many_o honest_a hearted_a man_n who_o do_v conscientious_o seek_v to_o make_v good_a that_o engagement_n but_o herein_o i_o confess_v a_o double_a error_n first_o have_v this_o engagement_n be_v to_o be_v prosecute_v yet_o ought_v not_o we_o to_o have_v move_v
