before_o judge_n a_o cause_n betwixt_o a_o father_n and_o his_o son_n most_o reverend_a judge_n plaintiff_n against_o the_o father_n here_o be_v the_o son_n which_o ought_v to_o be_v his_o father_n heir_n who_o for_o marryig_a against_o his_o father_n consent_n his_o father_n have_v disinherited_n which_o be_v against_o all_o law_n or_o right_n both_o of_o god_n nature_n and_o man._n defendant_n most_o reverend_a judge_n disobedient_a child_n ought_v to_o have_v no_o part_n nor_o parcel_v of_o their_o parent_n estate_n as_o land_n good_n or_o whatsoever_o for_o it_o the_o parent_n have_v no_o duty_n nor_o obedience_n from_o their_o child_n their_o child_n can_v challenge_v no_o part_n of_o their_o parent_n estate_n and_o since_o he_o have_v marry_v disobedient_o he_o ought_v to_o live_v poor_o or_o to_o get_v his_o live_n by_o his_o own_o labour_n or_o industry_n plaintiff_n most_o reverend_a judge_n there_o be_v no_o reason_n nor_o law_n that_o if_o one_o man_n commit_v a_o fault_n to_o a_o other_o that_o man_n shall_v commit_v a_o other_o to_o be_v quit_v with_o he_o and_o put_v the_o case_n the_o son_n be_v unnatural_o disobedient_a must_v the_o father_n be_v unnatural_o cruel_a to_o be_v revenge_v of_o he_o defendant_n most_o reverend_a judge_n parent_n be_v the_o fit_a judge_n of_o their_o child_n fault_n and_o crime_n commit_v against_o they_o but_o howsoever_o parent_n can_v be_v think_v cruel_a or_o unnatural_a to_o punish_v the_o crime_n of_o their_o child_n no_o more_o than_o god_n can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v cruel_a or_o unjust_a to_o punish_v sinner_n for_o god_n who_o make_v creature_n may_v do_v what_o he_o please_v with_o they_o for_o be_v his_o own_o work_n he_o may_v dispose_v or_o order_v they_o as_o he_o think_v best_o or_o as_o he_o please_v so_o parent_n that_o beget_v their_o child_n may_v do_v the_o like_a in_o thing_n concern_v themselves_o plaintiff_n but_o god_n be_v merciful_a wherefore_o parent_n ought_v to_o be_v natural_a defendant_n god_n be_v just_a and_o therefore_o child_n ought_v to_o be_v dutiful_a plaintiff_n but_o if_o god_n shall_v punish_v his_o creature_n according_a to_o their_o desert_n no_o

so_o if_o god_n shall_v not_o punish_v some_o of_o his_o creature_n all_o will_v be_v damn_v and_o to_o make_v up_o the_o fullness_n of_o their_o sin_n they_o will_v despise_v his_o love_n and_o not_o fear_v his_o power_n and_o so_o they_o will_v neither_o love_v nor_o fear_n god_n so_o child_n will_v have_v neither_o duty_n nor_o obedience_n to_o their_o parent_n but_o to_o prove_v it_o a_o
