their_o father_n and_o husband_n be_v dead_a objection_n 5._o this_o maintain_n of_o minister_n by_o tithe_n seem_v not_o to_o hold_v any_o good_a proportion_n because_o that_o in_o some_o place_n

thereof_o though_o full_o pay_v be_v too_o scant_o a_o maintenance_n therefore_o in_o some_o place_n the_o nine_o eight_o or_o seven_o part_n have_v need_n be_v afford_v to_o the_o minister_n

ordinary_o competent_a to_o attend_v the_o spiritual_a charge_n of_o that_o country_n for_o the_o clear_n and_o further_a strengthen_v of_o this_o answer_n it_o be_v not_o altogether_o impertinent_a

maintenance_n of_o the_o ministry_n as_o by_o tithe_n and_o their_o reason_n be_v because_o every_o politic_a law_n be_v to_o be_v hold_v the_o more_o indifferent_a and_o equal_a the_o more_o near_o it_o be_v to_o the_o law_n which_o god_n enact_v of_o the_o same_o kind_n among_o the_o israelite_n but_o among_o the_o israelite_n this_o be_v the_o law_n of_o god_n that_o the_o tithe_n shall_v be_v
