A60636	Innocency and conscientiousness of the Quakers asserted and cleared from the evil surmises, false aspersions, and unrighteous suggestions of Judge Keeling expressed in his speech made the seventh of the seventh month at the sessions-house in the Old-Baily ... : wherein also is shewed that this law doth not concern them, they being no seditious sectaries, nor contrivers of insurrections, nor evil-doers, therefore no just law is against them.	Smith, William, d. 1673.	1664 (1664)	Wing S4308; ESTC R16062	11,414	18

that_o we_o have_v a_o design_n to_o carry_v on_o and_o therefore_o will_v not_o swear_v allegiance_n to_o the_o king_n now_o if_o he_o do_v believe_v what_o he_o say_v of_o we_o that_o we_o shall_v assert_v what_o we_o do_v not_o believe_v or_o be_v so_o void_a of_o conscienciousness_n then_o how_o can_v he_o in_o reason_n expect_v that_o a_o impose_v oath_n shall_v be_v so_o much_o bind_v to_o
