the_o spiritual_a liberty_n we_o shall_v not_o wrongful_o draw_v to_o the_o civil_a order_n as_o though_o christian_n be_v according_a to_o the_o outward_a government_n less_o subject_a to_o the_o

for_o it_o be_v a_o certain_a mean_a between_o god_n and_o man_n because_o it_o suffer_v not_o man_n to_o suppress_v in_o himself_o that_o which_o he_o know_v but_o pursue_v he_o so_o far_o till_o
