of_o their_o heart_n and_o themselves_o compel_v to_o condemn_v themselves_o by_o accusation_n wrest_v out_o of_o their_o own_o mouth_n upon_o the_o cease_n of_o the_o former_a committee_n authority_n these_o 7._o which_o now_o sit_v judge_n of_o delinquency_n and_o sequestration_n be_v impower_v about_o 25._o jan._n 1649_o since_o which_o time_n they_o and_o their_o subcommissioner_n in_o the_o

for_o by_o the_o same_o rule_n if_o the_o present_a commissioner_n shall_v sequester_v half_o the_o land_n and_o good_n in_o england_n right_a or_o wrong_n and_o then_o be_v displace_v and_o new_a
