to_o the_o rule_n aforecited_a doct._n feat_n yea_o with_o all_o my_o heart_n say_v the_o doctor_n god_n forbid_v else_o it_o be_v very_o fit_a that_o we_o shall_v labour_v to_o have_v our_o

of_o this_o oath_n can_v be_v good_a three_o this_o oath_n be_v contrary_a to_o all_o good_a mean_n for_o by_o the_o law_n of_o god_n every_o thing_n shall_v be_v determine_v by_o two_o or_o three_o
