a_o few_o day_n will_v show_v very_o much_o of_o their_o wicked_a design_n against_o all_o that_o have_v take_v the_o covenant_n and_o engage_v in_o both_o kingdom_n in_o this_o cause_n of_o god_n and_o his_o truth_n against_o the_o antichristian_a enemy_n and_o a_o very_a small_a body_n of_o soldier_n upon_o the_o border_n will_v destroy_v all_o their_o design_n and_o make_v they_o not_o

of_o the_o great_a duke_n and_o his_o party_n and_o no_o doubt_n but_o god_n in_o a_o very_a short_a time_n will_v here_o their_o prayer_n and_o be_v avenge_v of_o this_o ungodly_a party_n that_o be_v
