A43822	Nevv lords, nevv lavvs, or, A discovery of a grand usurpation, in opposition to the Holy Laws of God and contempt of the good laws, and royal prerogative of the supream magistrate, as it hath been lately practised by the lordly Matthew Caffin, a pretended true apostle of our blessed Lord and Saviour, and ruling head of his congregation, usually meeting at Southwater near Horsham in Sussex.

be_o persuade_v it_o must_v be_v otherwise_o then_o in_o the_o way_n of_o regeneration_n there_o be_v a_o old_a proverb_n kiss_v go_v by_o favour_n but_o suppose_v a_o honest_a widow_n or_o maid_n
