observe_v in_o the_o 22_o vers_fw-la but_o for_o their_o own_o ambitious_a ends._n one_a will_v have_v think_v that_o that_o declaration_n of_o king_n david_n to_o his_o privy_a council_n 1_o chron._n xxviij_o have_v be_v sufficient_a to_o blast_v all_o pretence_n of_o usurpation_n but_o these_o disturbance_n not_o only_o give_v he_o new_a occasion_n of_o declare_v god_n will_n in_o solomon_n

and_o express_v so_o much_o pleasure_n and_o satisfaction_n at_o his_o son_n accession_n to_o the_o crown_n in_o those_o day_n it_o be_v no_o crime_n to_o be_v zealous_o loyal_a to_o worship_n

at_o his_o own_o death_n he_o will_v not_o suffer_v they_o to_o be_v unmannerly_a in_o their_o sorrow_n but_o teach_v the_o people_n to_o forget_v he_o and_o look_v up_o towards_o his_o son_n and_o so_o they_o do_v as_o hearty_o as_o the_o king_n can_v wish_v for_o they_o blow_v the_o trumpet_n 40._o verse_n 39_o 40._o and_o all_o the_o people_n say_v god_n save_o king_n solomon_n and_o all_o
