A45147	Pacification touching the doctrinal dissent among our united brethren in London being an answer to Mr. Williams and Mr. Lobb both, who have appealed in one point (collected for an error) to this author, for his determination about it : together with some other more necessary points falling in, as also that case of non-resistance, which hath always been a case of that grand concern to the state, and now more especially, in regard to our loyalty to King William, and association to him, resolved, on that occasion / by Mr. John Humfrey.

three_o party_n between_o the_o offender_n and_o the_o offend_a in_o which_o person_n he_o obey_v and_o suffer_v for_o we_o then_o last_o shall_v impunity_n and_o life_n be_v due_a to_o we_o
