due_a respect_n whereunto_o god_n by_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n have_v bind_v they_o in_o this_o world_n and_o this_o must_v so_o be_v for_o the_o other_o true_a vow_n of_o renounce_v be_v make_v

their_o country_n papist_n of_o who_o their_o country_n consist_v who_o life_n they_o have_v regard_v no_o more_o than_o sheep_n yea_o no_o more_o than_o fleae_n and_o that_o with_o such_o delight_n
