free_a so_o in_o plain_a english_a the_o generality_n of_o the_o people_n and_o those_o of_o the_o best_a sense_n hold_v themselves_o no_o wise_a affect_a or_o prescribe_v unto_o by_o these_o declaration_n for_o we_o who_o know_v the_o tenor_n of_o they_o when_o they_o lay_v conceal_v in_o the_o council_n book_n and_o yet_o think_v ourselves_o at_o liberty_n to_o believe_v as_o our_o
