the_o civil_a bar_n obstruction_n hindrance_n in_o take_v of_o those_o yoke_n that_o pinch_v the_o very_a soul_n and_o conscience_n of_o man_n such_o as_o yet_o be_v the_o payment_n of_o tithe_n and_o

jesus_n i_o answer_v thus_o the_o first_o grand_a design_n of_o christ_n jesus_n be_v to_o destroy_v and_o consume_v his_o mortal_a enemy_n antichrist_n this_o must_v be_v do_v by_o the_o breath_n of_o his_o mouth_n in_o his_o prophet_n and_o witness_n nation_n now_o the_o nation_n of_o the_o world_n have_v impious_o stop_v this_o heavenly_a breath_n and_o stifle_v the_o lord_n jesus_n in_o

liberty_n of_o the_o magistrate_n conscience_n also_o conscience_n and_o therefore_o be_v his_o bounty_n and_o donation_n to_o his_o bishop_n and_o minister_n as_o large_a as_o those_o of_o
