homily_n the_o 39_o article_n and_o her_o doctrine_n as_o it_o relate_v either_o to_o god_n religion_n or_o the_o civil_a obedience_n due_a to_o the_o king_n and_o the_o whole_a government_n of_o state_n and_o the_o security_n of_o all_o these_o by_o a_o oath_n of_o allegiance_n if_o his_o lordship_n think_v that_o the_o law_n allow_v either_o peer_n or_o commons_o such_o a_o liberty_n of_o
