pretence_n of_o obedience_n unto_o worldly_a prince_n do_v perverte_a all_o the_o order_n of_o nature_n for_o that_o lawful_a prayer_n which_o god_n allowethe_v that_o we_o shall_v make_v for_o our_o

with_o honesty_n &_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n but_o this_o amplification_n &_o set_v forth_o of_o the_o obedience_n unto_o erthly_a prince_n be_v to_o far_o above_o measure_n when_o it_o be_v join_v

which_o god_n permit_v and_o allow_v final_o that_o great_a danger_n and_o violence_n which_o be_v intend_v towards_o she_o do_v discharge_v she_o and_o deliver_v she_o from_o the_o bond_n of_o such_o a_o bitter_a and_o dangerous_a life_n notwithstanding_o when_o all_o thing_n be_v well_o weigh_v &_o considere_v no_o worldly_a cause_n ought_v either_o to_o withdraw_v man_n or_o wife_n the_o one_o
