to_o have_v their_o scruple_n satisfy_v upon_o the_o root_n out_o of_o this_o ancient_a government_n must_v needs_o abandon_v our_o communion_n 3._o that_o the_o true_a protestant_a religion_n

the_o dispute_n be_v not_o so_o much_o whether_o bishop_n or_o no_o bishop_n as_o whether_o a_o king_n or_o no_o king_n for_o we_o must_v hold_v the_o negative_a if_o subject_n may_v be_v allow_v by_o
