government_n of_o england_n i_o do_v not_o gather_v up_o these_o his_o argument_n for_o any_o need_n we_o have_v of_o they_o but_o to_o put_v he_o in_o mind_n of_o his_o own_o take_v heed_n for_o if_o

must_v be_v set_v up_o retain_v and_o practise_v though_o prince_n be_v utterlie_o against_o it_o we_o must_v not_o tarry_v one_o hour_n to_o expect_v a_o new_a grant_n from_o man_n to_o do_v our_o

so_o neither_o can_v their_o disalowance_n make_v unlawful_a such_o duty_n of_o religion_n as_o the_o word_n of_o god_n approve_v nor_o can_v they_o give_v dispensation_n to_o any_o person_n to_o
