A91883	Liberty of conscience: or The sole means to obtaine peace and truth. Not onely reconciling His Majesty with His subjects, but all Christian states and princes to one another, with the freest passage for the gospel. Very seasonable and necessary in these distracted times, when most men are weary of war, and cannot finde the way to peace.	Robinson, Henry, 1605?-1664?; Walwyn, William, 1600-1681, attributed name.	1643 (1643)	Wing R1675; Thomason E39_1; ESTC R20544	74,273	74

upon_o good_a will_n the_o one_o preach_v christ_n of_o contention_n not_o sincere_o suppose_v to_o add_v affliction_n to_o my_o bond_n but_o the_o other_o of_o love_n know_v that_o i_o be_o set_v

notwithstanding_o this_o text_n because_o it_o mean_v only_o that_o god_n impute_v not_o sin_n unto_o they_o that_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n so_o he_o that_o believe_v in_o god_n and_o confess_v that_o
