A96902	The Solemne League and Covenant of three kingdomes, cleared to the conscience of every man, who is not willingly blinde, or wilfully obstinate. The antiquity of the Covenant on the Scots-side; the seasonablenesse of it on the English side; the admirable wisedome of God, in stirring-up the spirits of men on all sides, at such a time as this; all this with other things mightily conducing to, and promoting of the militia of kingdomes, and the posturing every person there, is referred to a place, where it may take up more room. The clearnese for the matter of this Covenant; the solemnity for the manner of it, is the subject of these few leaves, and yet to be made more clear to them thaT have a mind to understand. By E.W. Imprimatur Edm: Calamy, the morrow after wee lifted up our hands, and subscribed our names to this Covenant, Octob. 2. 1643.	Woodward, Ezekias, 1590-1675.	1643 (1643)	Wing W3505; Thomason E71_13; ESTC R14305	22,799	20

for_o two_o reason_n and_o a_o three_o which_o be_v chief_a of_o all_o first_o it_o be_v not_o so_o suitable_a to_o the_o work_n of_o the_o day_n i_o covenant_n now_o in_o all_o the_o people_n sight_n

be_v it_o which_o i_o intend_v the_o adversary_n be_v more_o weary_a in_o torment_v than_o christian_n be_v in_o suffer_v their_o torment_n so_o the_o adversary_n try_v they_o with_o gentle_a
