power_n with_o wrong_a to_o the_o right_a heir_n we_o sin_v and_o so_o much_o the_o more_o if_o bind_v by_o oath_n and_o covenant_n not_o to_o assist_v or_o comply_v with_o any_o other_o neither_o

they_o indeed_o do_v rather_o speak_v for_o a_o time_n of_o unsettlement_n etc._n etc._n they_o mean_v if_o a_o government_n be_v once_o settle_v by_o the_o generality_n of_o the_o people_n and_o no_o

our_o oath_n and_o covenant_n perhaps_o prevail_v to_o make_v the_o usurper_n think_v of_o some_o better_a way_n of_o reduce_v the_o government_n to_o the_o ancient_a channel_n whereas_o this_o way_n of_o compliance_n fasten_v and_o settle_v they_o in_o their_o sin_n and_o government_n together_o and_o whereas_o he_o say_v that_o may_v be_v call_v a_o settlement_n when_o there_o be_v such_o a_o

will_v have_v be_v of_o this_o mind_n 2._o it_o be_v indeed_o impossible_a to_o preserve_v that_o king_n person_n yet_o say_v the_o gent._n we_o find_v some_o part_n of_o the_o vow_n and_o covenant_n to_o speak_v of_o all_o the_o day_n of_o our_o life_n as_o to_o extirpate_v profaneness_n heresy_n blasphemy_n and_o for_o reformation_n all_o which_o it_o be_v well_o if_o the_o covenanter_n will_v

these_o thing_n impossible_a now_o to_o be_v preserve_v and_o if_o not_o do_v they_o not_o still_o bind_v we_o to_o endeavour_v they_o 2._o his_o word_n be_v worthy_a to_o be_v print_v and_o print_v again_o will_v any_o man_n that_o understand_v and_o favour_n religion_n and_o piety_n say_v that_o the_o clause_n which_o concern_v religion_n and_o piety_n be_v expire_v do_v we_o promise_v to_o

the_o kingdom_n what_o be_v this_o but_o to_o say_v unto_o god_n if_o thou_o will_v deliver_v we_o we_o will_v be_v bind_v to_o thou_o till_o we_o be_v deliver_v and_o no_o long_o etc._n etc._n sure_o this_o be_v too_o like_o that_o course_n of_o carnal_a israel_n ps_n 78.14_o etc._n etc._n but_o he_o go_v on_o here_o it_o be_v good_a to_o consider_v whether_o there_o be_v any_o clause_n in_o any_o
