Smallwood, D.D. to his book lately published, being a sermon preached at Carlile, 1664, wherein he hath laboured to prove swearing lawful among Christians, his reasons and arguments are weighed and answered, and the Doctrines of Christ vindicated against the conceptions and interpretations of men, who would make it void / by a sufferer for Christ and his doctrine, F.H.

notwithstanding_o a._n s._n his_o argument_n his_o ten_o argument_n be_v that_o if_o the_o high_a priest_n charge_v christ_n to_o swear_v and_o he_o without_o exception_n answer_v upon_o oath_n and_o that_o some_o year_n after_o he_o have_v say_v swear_v not_o at_o all_o from_o hence_o follow_v that_o when_o the_o magistrate_n impose_v a_o oath_n the_o person_n charge_v to_o swear_v may_v lawful_o
