all_o this_o notwithstanding_o that_o solemn_a covenant_n which_o the_o parliament_n force_v the_o people_n to_o take_v in_o the_o presence_n of_o almighty_a god_n bind_v they_o to_o discover_v all_o

all_o opposition_n these_o be_v proceed_n which_o the_o very_a heathen_a will_v abhor_v and_o which_o be_v quite_o contrary_a to_o the_o late_a solemn_a and_o great_a declaration_n of_o the_o army_n

to_o destroy_v they_o and_o make_v the_o parliament_n odious_a in_o regard_n he_o have_v so_o betray_v his_o trust_n in_o his_o eminent_a office_n viz._n of_o be_v speaker_n of_o the_o house_n of_o

6._o that_o m._n speaker_n have_v many_o hypocritical_a and_o subtle_a agent_n who_o go_v from_o person_n to_o person_n from_o place_n to_o place_n to_o hinder_v m._n speaker_n treachery_n and_o

likewise_o declare_v that_o i_o be_o confident_a that_o no_o well-affected_a person_n whatsoever_o will_v dare_v direct_o or_o indirect_o to_o oppose_v the_o aforesaid_a public_a trial_n but_o will_v
