be_v innocent_a the_o reason_n why_o they_o be_v not_o intend_v by_o the_o act_n be_v because_o they_o be_v loyal_a to_o the_o civil_a government_n and_o obedient_a to_o the_o spiritual_a for_o that_o they_o speak_v and_o preach_v divine_a truth_n and_o then_o that_o the_o dissenter_n preach_v divine_a truth_n be_v easy_o thus_o prove_v the_o church_n of_o england_n teach_v divine_a truth_n the_o
