corbet_n speech_n we_o be_v now_o die_a man_n and_o upon_o die_a ground_n &_o we_o be_v now_o in_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o great_a god_n to_o who_o we_o be_v now_o go_v true_o i_o desire_v to_o speak_v in_o his_o fear_n touch_v that_o which_o we_o be_v here_o come_v to_o suffer_v for_o i_o will_v only_o say_v this_o mr._n sheriff_n both_o the_o levy_v of_o the_o war_n and_o that_o act_n that_o we_o be_v now_o accuse_v and_o condemn_v for_o if_o they_o have_v be_v do_v without_o authority_n they_o have_v be_v abominable_a and_o to_o justify_v that_o authority_n i_o do_v not_o come_v here_o to_o do_v it_o the_o parliament_n the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o nation_n that_o now_o be_v have_v decry_v it_o down_o and_o say_v it_o be_v void_a and_o the_o court_n of_o justice_n where_o we_o have_v be_v in_o pursuance_n of_o their_o judgement_n have_v give_v judgement_n against_o we_o true_o so_o long_o as_o that_o act_n of_o parliament_n stand_v on_o foot_n judge_n must_v give_v judgement_n according_o but_o there_o have_v be_v many_o appeal_n about_o that_o authority_n and_o the_o nation_n have_v be_v govern_v by_o it_o and_o the_o nation_n about_o we_o have_v own_v it_o and_o we_o be_v now_o go_v to_o god_n who_o be_v the_o righteous_a judge_n and_o that_o word_n be_v upon_o my_o heart_n isa._n 33.22_o true_o man_n may_v judge_v and_o they_o may_v make_v law_n and_o it_o be_v our_o duty_n to_o submit_v to_o the_o law_n of_o the_o nation_n or_o leave_v it_o if_o we_o think_v they_o too_o hard_o but_o whatsoever_o law_n be_v make_v god_n be_v our_o judge_n and_o he_o will_v judge_v this_o cause_n and_o god_n be_v our_o lawgiver_n it_o be_v a_o scripture_n phrase_n god_n be_v our_o lawgiver_n and_o he_o be_v also_o our_o king_n and_o he_o will_v save_v we_o he_o will_v judge_v the_o cause_n of_o his_o people_n and_o i_o hope_v that_o the_o mind_n of_o sober_a man_n will_v wait_v for_o that_o judgement_n true_o mr._n sheriff_n as_o concern_v that_o common_a aspersion_n lay_v upon_o we_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v against_o magistrate_n and_o minister_n the_o lord_n know_v it_o be_v my_o principle_n and_o i_o desire_v there_o may_v be_v a_o stand_a settle_a government_n a_o godly_a magistracy_n and_o likewise_o a_o godly_a ministry_n in_o this_o nation_n and_o i_o pray_v god_n grant_v that_o his_o people_n may_v be_v bless_v under_o they_o and_o true_o for_o the_o magistrate_n that_o now_o be_v the_o hand_n of_o god_n have_v bring_v he_o into_o the_o throne_n while_o i_o have_v be_v in_o other_o nation_n i_o have_v bless_v god_n and_o desire_v the_o lord_n that_o he_o may_v rule_v for_o god_n and_o be_v a_o terror_n to_o evil_a doer_n and_o countenance_v the_o true_a professor_n of_o the_o true_a protestant_a religion_n that_o he_o may_v defend_v both_o religion_n itself_o and_o the_o professor_n of_o it_o true_o there_o have_v be_v many_o as_o they_o call_v they_o sect_n and_o heresy_n that_o have_v spring_v up_o in_o these_o late_a time_n but_o bless_v be_v god_n there_o have_v be_v also_o great_a appearance_n of_o god_n and_o much_o light_n be_v break_v out_o more_o in_o this_o nation_n than_o i_o can_v ever_o hear_v of_o or_o see_v in_o the_o nation_n round_o about_o though_o they_o profess_v the_o same_o religion_n i_o have_v be_v among_o many_o who_o they_o call_v reform_v protestant_n but_o of_o true_a protestant_n such_o as_o hold_v out_o their_o profession_n in_o their_o life_n there_o be_v more_o in_o this_o nation_n than_o elsewhere_o and_o they_o be_v not_o to_o be_v compare_v for_o number_n bless_a be_v god_n and_o the_o lord_n increase_v they_o and_o multiply_v they_o daily_o for_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o nation_n be_v not_o in_o a_o multitude_n of_o people_n only_o but_o of_o such_o as_o fear_v the_o lord_n and_o worship_n god_n and_o lift_v up_o his_o name_n and_o true_o my_o desire_n and_o prayer_n be_v that_o the_o gospel_n the_o true_a and_o glorious_a gospel_n of_o god_n the_o gospel_n of_o jesus_n christ_n may_v have_v a_o free_a course_n in_o this_o nation_n and_o may_v be_v glorify_v in_o the_o live_v of_o man_n as_o well_o as_o in_o their_o word_n as_o for_o the_o particular_a way_n of_o worship_n that_o i_o be_o of_o i_o shall_v only_o say_v that_o in_o my_o judgement_n and_o conscience_n i_o have_v and_o do_v understand_v that_o which_o be_v call_v the_o congregational_a way_n to_o be_v near_o to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o i_o do_v free_o bear_v my_o testimony_n to_o the_o confession_n of_o it_o that_o be_v extant_a which_o be_v make_v at_o the_o savoy_n but_o with_o this_o that_o also_o of_o the_o assembly_n of_o divine_n that_o be_v make_v in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o long_a parliament_n and_o the_o declaration_n they_o make_v concern_v religion_n save_v only_o as_o to_o the_o discipline-part_n as_o to_o the_o other_o i_o do_v full_o subscribe_v unto_o it_o for_o i_o think_v that_o the_o say_v confession_n be_v the_o most_o clear_a of_o any_o protestant_a confession_n whereof_o i_o have_v see_v divers_a that_o be_v extant_a and_o in_o foreign_a part_n they_o will_v confess_v as_o much_o mr._n sheriff_n as_o to_o what_o i_o shall_v desire_v for_o the_o nation_n for_o true_o we_o be_v take_v our_o leaf_n of_o it_o and_o we_o shall_v see_v your_o face_n no_o more_o that_o which_o i_o upon_o the_o knee_n of_o my_o soul_n do_v beg_v for_o this_o nation_n be_v that_o as_o they_o be_v protestant_n in_o name_n and_o take_v that_o upon_o they_o in_o profession_n so_o their_o life_n may_v be_v answerable_a true_o nothing_o do_v more_o dread_a my_o spirit_n and_o cause_v i_o to_o fear_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n to_o come_v upon_o this_o nation_n then_o when_o i_o hear_v that_o among_o those_o which_o bear_v the_o name_n of_o protestant_n there_o be_v such_o profaneness_n drunkenness_n swear_v and_o such_o abomination_n that_o be_v not_o to_o be_v name_v no_o not_o among_o moral_a man_n the_o lord_n stop_v the_o course_n of_o they_o as_o also_o the_o growth_n of_o popery_n and_o superstition_n and_o that_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n may_v break_v forth_o and_o that_o man_n may_v love_v it_o for_o true_o the_o gospel_n be_v worth_a the_o love_a the_o truth_n of_o god_n be_v worth_a love_a and_o if_o we_o love_v they_o then_o true_o god_n will_v love_v we_o and_o bless_v we_o mr._n sheriff_n for_o my_o own_o part_n if_o there_o be_v any_o here_o that_o i_o know_v i_o have_v wrong_v i_o will_v ask_v they_o pardon_v and_o forgiveness_n if_o i_o know_v they_o i_o must_v confess_v i_o have_v be_v in_o many_o public_a action_n i_o have_v be_v of_o all_o the_o parliament_n since_o the_o late_a king_n reign_n and_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o this_o parliament_n i_o must_v confess_v i_o be_v call_v to_o it_o do_v think_v it_o be_v my_o duty_n to_o act_v according_a to_o the_o ability_n god_n give_v i_o and_o to_o deny_v myself_o i_o thank_v god_n for_o it_o i_o come_v with_o a_o estate_n to_o the_o parliament_n and_o i_o bless_v god_n for_o it_o i_o spend_v it_o while_o i_o sit_v in_o the_o parliament_n and_o true_o i_o thank_v god_n they_o can_v find_v any_o estate_n that_o i_o have_v forfeit_v for_o i_o have_v none_o to_o forfeit_v this_o business_n that_o we_o be_v here_o for_o i_o be_v very_o far_o from_o be_v a_o contriver_n of_o when_o the_o bill_n come_v into_o the_o house_n i_o must_v confess_v i_o be_v a_o member_n of_o the_o parliament_n do_v somewhat_o wonder_v at_o it_o and_o i_o do_v speak_v against_o it_o but_o when_o it_o be_v past_a and_o i_o be_v name_v to_o be_v a_o commissioner_n true_o it_o be_v do_v by_o that_o that_o be_v then_o call_v the_o authority_n of_o the_o nation_n i_o do_v think_v i_o be_v bind_v to_o obey_v in_o that_o respect_n i_o will_v say_v no_o more_o i_o never_o sit_v but_o once_o in_o that_o they_o call_v the_o high_a court_n of_o justice_n but_o for_o that_o i_o will_v say_v no_o more_o i_o do_v not_o come_v to_o condemn_v that_o authority_n and_o power_n neither_o will_v i_o now_o because_o the_o parliament_n and_o the_o nation_n and_o the_o spirit_n of_o man_n be_v against_o it_o justify_v it_o and_o be_v a_o little_a interrupt_v he_o say_v i_o will_v not_o speak_v to_o offend_v any_o man_n true_o i_o thank_v god_n i_o never_o get_v any_o thing_n either_o of_o king_n land_n nor_o bishop_n nor_o dean_n &_o chapter_n land_n i_o never_o know_v what_o belong_v to_o the_o trade_n of_o buy_v or_o sell_v land_n i_o think_v i_o be_v in_o a_o better_a way_n look_v to_o that_o station_n which_o god_n have_v call_v i_o
