darkness_n unto_o the_o light_n and_o from_o satan_n power_n unto_o the_o power_n of_o god_n the_o creator_n of_o all_o that_o man_n through_o faith_n and_o obedience_n may_v come_v to_o be_v bless_v with_o the_o blessing_n of_o eternal_a life_n furthermore_o the_o lord_n god_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n for_o his_o glory_n and_o honour_n sake_n do_v now_o command_v and_o require_v all_o man_n as_o well_o the_o king_n on_o the_o throne_n as_o the_o low_a of_o man_n to_o bow_v their_o heart_n and_o submit_v their_o soul_n in_o all_o holy_a obedience_n and_o conformity_n unto_o the_o

both_o high_a and_o low_a rich_a and_o poor_a etc._n etc._n this_o obedience_n and_o conformity_n unto_o the_o light_n and_o spirit_n of_o christ_n do_v the_o god_n of_o heaven_n command_v &_o require_v of_o we_o all_o even_o from_o the_o high_a to_o the_o low_a upon_o pain_n and_o peril_n of_o eternal_a condemnation_n and_o a_o utter_a separation_n from_o god_n and_o all_o the_o saint_n in_o light_n and_o these_o thing_n oh_o you_o ruler_n and_o people_n of_o england_n have_v deep_o enter_v into_o the_o heart_n of_o many_o thousand_o in_o this_o our_o native_a country_n even_o in_o

that_o which_o he_o require_v of_o we_o all_o and_o so_o in_o obedience_n to_o his_o heavenly_a call_n many_o be_v they_o who_o love_v not_o their_o life_n unto_o the_o death_n that_o god_n may_v be_v

to_o worship_v and_o reverence_n his_o holy_a name_n in_o faithful_a obedience_n unto_o christ_n the_o light_n and_o the_o truth_n oh_o how_o have_v the_o seed_n of_o the_o serpent_n rage_v and_o raise_v war_n against_o the_o lord_n and_o against_o his_o anoint_v but_o the_o lord_n our_o god_n be_v with_o we_o and_o his_o bless_a presence_n dwell_v in_o we_o and_o among_o we_o so_o that_o in_o the_o godly_a resolution_n of_o our_o soul_n we_o be_v purpose_v in_o the_o name_n and_o power_n and_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n to_o go_v on_o and_o follow_v the_o lamb_n in_o

and_o reverence_n even_o all_o the_o day_n of_o our_o appoint_a time_n and_o behold_v this_o be_v but_o our_o reasonable_a duty_n so_o to_o do_v and_o as_o the_o lord_n our_o god_n have_v engage_v we_o through_o his_o infinite_a love_n &_o mercy_n thus_o to_o walk_v in_o all_o holy_a duty_n and_o obedience_n unto_o he_o even_o the_o same_o obligation_n come_v upon_o all_o as_o they_o wait_v for_o a_o understanding_n in_o the_o light_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n but_o now_o this_o be_v that_o which_o grieve_v the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o be_v the_o great_a of_o

and_o be_v that_o cry_a sin_n and_o grievous_a abomination_n which_o draw_v down_o wrath_n and_o vengeance_n from_o god_n upon_o the_o wicked_a and_o world_n of_o ungodly_a as_o it_o do_v in_o

and_o ruler_n of_o this_o our_o nation_n to_o consider_v and_o remember_v lest_o they_o also_o perish_v in_o god_n wrath_n and_o indignation_n but_o for_o as_o much_o as_o god_n have_v put_v it_o into_o their_o head_n to_o do_v justice_n and_o to_o execute_v judgement_n in_o the_o earth_n oh_o that_o they_o may_v serve_v god_n in_o their_o generation_n and_o set_v a_o stop_n to_o the_o

who_o will_v certain_o render_v recompense_n and_o vengeance_n unto_o his_o enemy_n either_o in_o this_o world_n or_o in_o that_o which_o be_v to_o come_v oh_o sad_a to_o consider_v where_o shall_v the_o wicked_a and_o the_o ungodly_a appear_v who_o do_v not_o only_o neglect_v their_o own_o duty_n and_o obedience_n to_o god_n but_o be_v beat_v their_o fellow-servant_n and_o smite_v with_o the_o
