about_o if_o they_o be_v not_o sensible_a already_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o they_o will_v in_o a_o little_a time_n and_o now_o sir_n if_o you_o will_v give_v i_o the_o same_o liberty_n to_o put_v together_o which_o you_o take_v i_o can_v learn_v from_o all_o this_o how_o our_o old_a law_n and_o oath_n bind_v we_o to_o your_o new_a allegiance_n but_o that_o rather_o our_o constitution_n and_o oath_n bind_v we_o to_o king_n james_n and_o not_o to_o william_n though_o the_o contrary_a hereto_o be_v your_o shameless_a conclusion_n from_o your_o wild_a premise_n all_o along_o you_o make_v dyschere_n by_o who_o you_o represent_v we_o to_o give_v up_o the_o cause_n as_o far_o as_o you_o go_v which_o disingenuous_a deal_n we_o have_v too_o much_o cause_n to_o complain_v of_o but_o the_o better_a to_o detect_v it_o i_o must_v follow_v your_o step_n and_o now_o come_v such_o a_o tremendous_a objection_n that_o i_o wonder_v your_o joint_n do_v not_o tremble_v and_o your_o hand_n shake_v when_o you_o set_v pen_n to_o paper_n it_o be_v to_o this_o effect_n that_o when_o the_o violence_n be_v essential_o unjust_a unnatural_a and_o contrary_a to_o the_o moral_a and_o eternal_a law_n of_o god_n and_o righteousness_n no_o human_a compact_n can_v ratify_v such_o wrong_n or_o justify_v and_o confirm_v what_o be_v essential_o injurious_a nor_o ought_v the_o priest_n of_o the_o most_o high_a god_n to_o consecrate_v and_o confirm_v such_o rape_n by_o oath_n and_o religious_a sponsion_n if_o there_o be_v any_o such_o thing_n as_o this_o and_o such_o i_o fear_v we_o shall_v find_v there_o be_v if_o there_o be_v any_o such_o thing_n as_o god_n commandment_n we_o have_v need_n have_v a_o care_n what_o we_o do_v that_o man_n wit_n be_v ill_o bestow_v on_o he_o who_o argue_v himself_o out_o of_o his_o own_o soul_n but_o here_o you_o think_v to_o slip_v your_o neck_n out_o of_o the_o collar_n by_o tell_v we_o that_o the_o internal_a immorality_n of_o all_o action_n must_v be_v careful_o distinguish_v from_o the_o civil_a consequence_n of_o they_o well_o be_v it_o so_o we_o will_v do_v this_o for_o you_o too_o as_o fair_o and_o careful_o as_o we_o can_v and_o what_o then_o why_o then_o suppose_v say_v you_o p._n 6._o a_o son_n by_o fraudulent_a art_n get_v judgement_n in_o law_n and_o seize_v his_o father_n estate_n and_o body_n by_o execution_n and_o starve_v his_o father_n in_o prison_n this_o man_n immorality_n be_v damnable_a be_v it_o so_o i_o think_v this_o be_v a_o bone_n for_o some_o body_n to_o pick_v which_o may_v hold_v he_o tug_v though_o his_o tooth_n be_v as_o long_o as_o his_o nose_n but_o sir_n what_o if_o a_o daughter_n shall_v do_v thus_o will_v not_o this_o woman_n immorality_n be_v damnable_a if_o not_o pray_v next_o time_n you_o write_v give_v we_o a_o reason_n of_o the_o difference_n but_o it_o seem_v if_o they_o shall_v be_v both_o damn_a yet_o the_o judge_n sheriff_n and_o other_o officer_n be_v innocent_a it_o may_v be_v so_o whilst_o they_o act_v as_o officer_n of_o law_n and_o according_a to_o the_o direction_n of_o law_n but_o if_o your_o judge_n sheriff_n or_o other_o officer_n make_v themselves_o party_n and_o join_v with_o and_o assist_v such_o a_o wicked_a son_n or_o daughter_n to_o effect_v such_o a_o evil_a act_n or_o do_v applaud_v and_o approve_v it_o when_o they_o know_v it_o be_v do_v by_o such_o wicked_a and_o unlawful_a art_n than_o their_o be_v officer_n of_o law_n will_v rather_o increase_v than_o diminish_v their_o guilt_n and_o so_o for_o your_o robber_n and_o pirate_n a_o man_n may_v lawful_o suffer_v by_o they_o though_o it_o be_v better_a if_o he_o can_v escape_v it_o but_o if_o you_o will_v plead_v that_o their_o robbery_n and_o piracy_n be_v lawful_a if_o you_o say_v they_o require_v a_o just_a right_n to_o what_o they_o get_v by_o such_o wicked_a mean_n or_o if_o you_o actual_o join_v with_o they_o and_o rob_v and_o share_v in_o their_o booty_n you_o will_v be_v as_o very_a a_o rogue_n as_o they_o and_o which_o be_v most_o like_a the_o case_n i_o leave_v other_o to_o judge_v much_o such_o another_o instance_n be_v your_o lord_n of_o a_o manor_n let_v he_o look_v how_o he_o come_v to_o be_v so_o i_o may_v treat_v with_o he_o as_o lord_n of_o the_o manor_n who_o the_o law_n declare_v to_o be_v so_o but_o if_o the_o lord_n tenant_n conspire_v against_o their_o lawful_a landlord_n and_o dispossess_v he_o of_o his_o manor_n and_o invite_v a_o stranger_n and_o say_v and_o swear_v he_o shall_v be_v lord_n of_o the_o manor_n and_o according_o pay_n homage_n and_o fealty_n to_o he_o you_o sir_n may_v determine_v for_o their_o swear_n and_o lie_v too_o if_o you_o please_v but_o i_o shall_v have_v nothing_o the_o better_a opinion_n of_o your_o honesty_n for_o it_o but_o now_o let_v the_o five_o commandment_n look_v to_o itself_o for_o it_o be_v never_o so_o hardly_o beset_v there_o be_v a_o sort_n of_o protestant_n who_o i_o think_v be_v resolve_v by_o make_v away_o the_o five_o commandment_n to_o be_v even_o with_o the_o papist_n for_o suppress_v the_o second_o and_o indeed_o according_a as_o some_o man_n act_n and_o write_v unless_o it_o be_v to_o furnish_v pretence_n and_o to_o show_v our_o fine_a clothes_n and_o eat_v roast_a meat_n on_o sunday_n i_o see_v not_o what_o occasion_n they_o have_v for_o any_o commandment_n and_o so_o they_o may_v make_v religion_n a_o law_n of_o liberty_n or_o a_o liberty_n from_o all_o law_n and_o i_o do_v not_o perceive_v sir_n that_o you_o much_o mend_v the_o matter_n you_o say_v that_o from_o the_o five_o commandment_n we_o can_v charge_v k._n w._n with_o subjection_n to_o king_n james_n etc._n etc._n p._n 7._o if_o by_o this_o you_o mean_v that_o we_o can_v thence_o prove_v he_o to_o have_v be_v his_o subject_n i_o do_v not_o know_v that_o ever_o any_o man_n attempt_v such_o a_o thing_n but_o do_v a_o nephew_n and_o a_o son-in-law_n owe_v no_o duty_n if_o he_o owe_v not_o that_o which_o be_v proper_o call_v subjection_n or_o may_v a_o man_n because_o he_o be_v not_o his_o subject_n spoil_v another_o of_o all_o he_o have_v and_o must_v all_o person_n applaud_v and_o approve_v the_o act_n and_o swear_v he_o be_v in_o the_o right_a the_o case_n of_o a_o own_o daughter_n be_v still_o more_o severe_a but_o for_o that_o you_o say_v that_o she_o be_v in_o duty_n bind_v to_o follow_v her_o husband_n fortune_n order_n and_o authority_n even_o against_o the_o will_n of_o her_o father_n and_o this_o with_o a_o more_o plenary_a consent_n if_o she_o judge_v her_o husband_n cause_n to_o be_v just_a i_o do_v not_o think_v either_o she_o or_o your_o judgement_n worth_a a_o farthing_n unless_o the_o cause_n be_v just_a in_o itself_o sorry_a argument_n will_v serve_v to_o persuade_v ambitious_a person_n that_o they_o have_v right_a to_o a_o crown_n though_o unconcerned_a person_n at_o the_o same_o time_n plain_o see_v the_o fallaciousness_n of_o they_o but_o sir_n i_o be_o not_o satisfy_v with_o your_o bare_a word_n that_o a_o woman_n be_v bind_v thus_o to_o follow_v her_o husband_n through_o thick_a and_o thin_a i_o grant_v that_o she_o ought_v to_o be_v the_o partner_n both_o of_o his_o joy_n and_o sorrow_n but_o let_v she_o have_v a_o care_n how_o she_o become_v partner_n in_o his_o sin_n nor_o do_v the_o relation_n of_o a_o wife_n take_v away_o the_o relation_n of_o a_o child_n as_o you_o seem_v to_o intimate_v though_o you_o be_v ashamed_a plain_o to_o say_v it_o they_o may_v indeed_o limit_v each_o other_o so_o that_o the_o father_n may_v not_o command_v the_o daughter_n any_o thing_n inconsistent_a with_o the_o duty_n of_o a_o wife_n nor_o the_o husband_n the_o wife_n any_o thing_n inconsistent_a with_o the_o duty_n of_o a_o child_n to_o a_o parent_n but_o yet_o the_o great_a end_n of_o these_o relation_n be_v to_o strengthen_v and_o support_v not_o to_o destroy_v each_o other_o as_o you_o close_o insinuate_v beside_o your_o reason_n be_v a_o mistake_n in_o itself_o as_o to_o this_o case_n for_o can_v you_o with_o all_o your_o trick_n of_o legerdemain_n remove_v both_o king_n james_n and_o the_o prince_n of_o wales_n out_o of_o the_o way_n than_o there_o will_v rise_v another_o relation_n and_o then_o he_o in_o these_o dominion_n must_v follow_v her_o fortune_n not_o she_o his_o for_o according_a to_o our_o constitution_n she_o will_v be_v his_o queen_n and_o here_o he_o must_v be_v her_o subject_a it_o be_v true_a the_o name_n of_o king_n will_v be_v allow_v but_o the_o power_n by_o our_o constitution_n will_v be_v lodge_v in_o she_o and_o he_o will_v be_v liable_a to_o offend_v against_o her_o law_n to_o treason_n against_o her_o person_n and_o to_o be_v try_v by_o her_o authority_n
