23.27_o let_v we_o therefore_o see_v we_o know_v these_o thing_n before_o beware_v lest_o we_o also_o be_v lead_v away_o with_o the_o error_n of_o the_o wicked_a fall_v from_o our_o own_o

they_o shall_v do_v to_o we_o but_o in_o a_o special_a manner_n we_o ough_o to_o have_v respect_n unto_o the_o magistrate_n who_o god_n have_v set_v over_o we_o to_o do_v to_o they_o even_o as_o we_o
