in_o the_o late_a trouble_n almost_o in_o all_o parish_n this_o therefore_o be_v to_o multiply_v division_n that_o at_o last_o must_v overthrow_v all_o and_o there_o be_v no_o consider_v person_n but_o see_v a_o necessity_n that_o all_o minister_n shall_v be_v bind_v to_o the_o same_o rule_n another_o reason_n for_o continue_v the_o ceremony_n be_v because_o it_o will_v be_v in_o vain_a to_o

leave_v to_o they_o to_o conform_v in_o what_o they_o can_v have_v no_o scruple_n of_o conscience_n yet_o this_o do_v not_o satisfy_v they_o but_o he_o have_v say_v before_o that_o some_o of_o they_o
