get_v the_o upper_a hand_n he_o and_o his_o parliament_n may_v have_v make_v act_n for_o it_o if_o they_o please_v but_o we_o see_v here_o that_o the_o clergy_n will_v have_v tell_v they_o that_o they_o meddle_v with_o what_o do_v not_o concern_v they_o and_o that_o they_o have_v no_o power_n to_o make_v act_n about_o religious_a matter_n or_o dispose_v of_o the_o right_n of_o holy_a church_n and_o we_o see_v from_o this_o experiment_n who_o will_v have_v be_v obey_v we_o find_v here_o upon_o trial_n that_o when_o king_n james_n will_v have_v keep_v his_o word_n to_o we_o it_o be_v not_o in_o his_o power_n to_o do_v it_o and_o that_o his_o frequent_o repeat_v promise_n and_o his_o act_n of_o parliament_n for_o liberty_n of_o conscience_n can_v not_o prevent_v the_o demolish_n deface_v

their_o respective_a religion_n to_o all_o that_o profess_v christianity_n within_o the_o kingdom_n without_o any_o molestation_n loss_n or_o penalty_n whatsoever_o but_o assign_v no_o punishment_n to_o such_o as_o shall_v disturb_v any_o in_o their_o religious_a exercise_n and_o there_o be_v good_a reason_n for_o that_o omission_n for_o by_o this_o mean_v they_o have_v leave_v their_o officer_n

be_v not_o like_a to_o make_v much_o of_o this_o they_o let_v it_o fall_v and_o the_o officer_n and_o soldier_n come_v into_o the_o church_n in_o time_n of_o divine_a service_n or_o in_o time_n of_o
