some_o extraordinary_a valiant_a act_n of_o chivalry_n or_o else_o by_o some_o extraordinary_a gift_n of_o learning_n whereby_o they_o be_v have_v in_o high_a estimation_n above_o other_o man_n in_o respect_n of_o their_o qualification_n &_o endowment_n but_o most_o of_o your_o gentleman_n have_v be_v so_o notorious_o wicked_a along_o time_n that_o they_o have_v cast_v a_o foul_a stain_n upon_o their_o gentility_n and_o at_o this_o present_a day_n there_o lie_v a_o stain_n upon_o their_o soul_n as_o black_a as_o hell_n itself_o beside_o there_o have_v be_v many_o generation_n since_o

your_o father_n the_o devil_n &_o the_o lust_n of_o your_o father_n you_o will_v do_v john_n 8.44_o now_o certain_o if_o the_o devil_n be_v their_o father_n they_o must_v of_o necessity_n be_v bastard_n and_o so_o i_o come_v to_o the_o second_o particular_a you_o say_v you_o be_v of_o the_o protestant_a religion_n i_o answer_v that_o the_o protestant_a religion_n be_v a_o christian_a profession_n of_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n according_a to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n wherein_o man_n do_v enter_v into_o a_o covenant_n and_o bind_v themselves_o both_o to_o god_n and_o man_n each_o to_o other_o protest_v that_o they_o will_v stand_v to_o maintain_v the_o true_a faith_n in_o christ_n jesus_n and_o he_o crucify_v which_o they_o then_o profess_v even_o to_o the_o hazard_n of_o their_o life_n land_n and_o personal_a estate_n &_o hence_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o so_o many_o godly_a and_o holy_a patriarch_n suffer_v martyrdom_n in_o the_o time_n of_o q._n marry_o and_o this_o protestation_n of_o they_o be_v in_o the_o nature_n of_o our_o covenant_n that_o be_v late_o set_v forth_o by_o the_o honourable_a court_n of_o parliament_n and_o both_o for_o god_n and_o his_o glory_n for_o god_n hand_n shall_v be_v either_o for_o we_o or_o against_o we_o according_a to_o the_o performance_n of_o the_o duty_n either_o by_o truth_n or_o deceit_n those_o godly_a man_n in_o their_o protestation_n enter_v into_o a_o oath_n and_o into_o a_o curse_n neh._n 10.29_o and_o so_o have_v we_o in_o our_o covenant_n so_o that_o every_o one_o that_o take_v a_o oath_n do_v bind_v himself_o either_o to_o the_o performance_n or_o to_o the_o punishment_n num._n 30.2_o 3._o so_o that_o we_o make_v god_n our_o witness_n our_o party_n and_o our_o judge_n beside_o we_o enter_v into_o a_o covenant_n in_o our_o baptism_n there_o we_o promise_v to_o forsake_v the_o devil_n &_o all_o his_o work_n etc._n etc._n and_o baptism_n be_v a_o seal_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n but_o we_o have_v commit_v all_o manner_n of_o actual_a rebellion_n since_o that_o time_n all_o manner_n of_o sin_n &_o impiety_n and_o now_o at_o this_o time_n here_o be_v a_o nationall_n sin_n reign_v among_o we_o &_o it_o deseru_v a_o national_a judgement_n &_o punishment_n and_o when_o a_o nation_n or_o a_o people_n be_v a_o guilty_a of_o a_o extraordinary_a heinous_a sin_n it_o be_v both_o lawful_a and_o needful_a for_o they_o to_o enter_v in_o a_o covenant_n and_o to_o renew_v their_o covenant_n to_o bind_v themselves_o against_o sin_n to_o forsake_v it_o in_o their_o own_o person_n and_o to_o hinder_v &_o punish_v it_o in_o other_o esa_fw-mi 10.3_o 8._o and_o this_o shall_v suffice_v for_o the_o second_o particular_a i_o come_v now_o to_o the_o three_o you_o say_v you_o fight_v for_o the_o king_n but_o because_o the_o four_o particular_a have_v so_o near_o a_o relation_n and_o dependencie_n on_o the_o three_o i_o shall_v therefore_o handle_v they_o both_o joint_o and_o several_o you_o say_v likewise_o that_o the_o king_n stand_v to_o maintain_v the_o true_a protestant_a religion_n the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n the_o liberty_n of_o the_o subject_a and_o privilege_n of_o parliament_n and_o call_v all_o his_o declaration_n proclamation_n and_o protestation_n to_o witness_v i_o answer_v it_o be_v true_a there_o have_v be_v many_o set_n forth_o in_o his_o name_n and_o sign_v with_o c._n r._n although_o he_o never_o know_v of_o the_o publish_n of_o they_o therefore_o do_v not_o deceive_v yourself_o there_o be_v and_o have_v be_v many_o evil_a councillor_n about_o he_o and_o a_o porter_n keep_v the_o seal_n beside_o how_o can_v you_o say_v that_o you_o fight_v for_o the_o king_n whereas_o the_o king_n himself_o fight_v to_o destroy_v his_o kingdom_n it_o be_v true_a you_o fight_v for_o he_o so_o far_o forth_o as_o to_o help_v he_o do_v it_o to_o proceed_v far_o suppose_v the_o king_n shall_v offer_v violence_n to_o his_o own_o person_n to_o destroy_v himself_o which_o god_n forbid_v he_o shall_v will_v you_o help_v further_o he_o in_o it_o certain_o you_o be_v in_o a_o most_o miserable_a condition_n as_o the_o case_n stand_v but_o if_o it_o be_v lawful_a for_o the_o king_n to_o go_v to_o war_n against_o his_o subject_n than_o it_o be_v lawful_a for_o you_o to_o fight_v for_o he_o but_o i_o shall_v make_v it_o evident_o appear_v that_o you_o fight_v clear_o against_o he_o against_o god_n himself_o his_o church_n and_o people_n against_o yourself_o &_o against_o the_o whole_a kingdom_n and_o state_n first_o you_o fight_v against_o the_o king_n in_o strive_v to_o set_v up_o a_o arbitrary_a government_n which_o no_o earthly_a king_n can_v have_v unless_o of_o subject_n we_o shall_v become_v slave_n as_o they_o be_v in_o france_n but_o the_o king_n of_o king_n who_o sit_v in_o heaven_n and_o see_v all_o thing_n here_o below_o and_o be_v present_a in_o all_o place_n and_o dispose_v of_o all_o thing_n according_a to_o his_o own_o will_n and_o pleasure_n but_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a that_o our_o king_n can_v be_v present_a in_o all_o place_n as_o the_o king_n of_o king_n be_v than_o he_o may_v claim_v and_o challenge_v a_o arbitrary_a government_n to_o himself_o and_o govern_v his_o people_n according_a to_o his_o own_o will_n and_o we_o as_o subject_n will_v obey_v he_o according_a to_o the_o french_a fashion_n second_o you_o fight_v against_o god_n and_o against_o christ_n nay_o you_o fight_v against_o all_o the_o member_n of_o christ_n for_o all_o those_o which_o make_v a_o profession_n of_o christ_n and_o endeavour_v to_o regulate_v their_o life_n and_o conversation_n according_a to_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n you_o do_v not_o only_o hate_v their_o person_n but_o their_o very_a profession_n three_o you_o fight_v not_o only_o against_o you_o self_n but_o against_o the_o whole_a kingdom_n and_o state_n for_o you_o fight_v to_o destroy_v the_o law_n by_o which_o every_o man_n ought_v to_o possess_v and_o enjoy_v that_o which_o he_o have_v successive_o from_o his_o predecessor_n or_o purchase_v with_o his_o own_o money_n 4_o you_o fight_v against_o the_o parliament_n which_o the_o king_n himself_o both_o by_o law_n and_o oath_n be_v bind_v to_o maintain_v beside_o all_o this_o although_o you_o cavileere_v have_v steal_v away_o the_o king_n person_n from_o his_o parliament_n yet_o his_o power_n be_v their_o with_o they_o still_o for_o the_o king_n be_v subject_a to_o his_o inferior_a court_n of_o justice_n much_o more_o be_v he_o subject_a to_o his_o high_a court_n of_o parliament_n which_o command_v all_o other_o inferior_a court_n for_o if_o the_o king_n writ_n be_v issue_v out_o of_o his_o inferior_a court_n of_o justice_n and_o put_v in_o due_a execution_n although_o he_o be_v a_o hundred_o or_o two_o hundred_o mile_n off_o yet_o the_o law_n go_v on_o in_o as_o full_a force_n and_o power_n as_o if_o he_o himself_o be_v personal_o present_a and_o the_o king_n himself_o ought_v to_o be_v with_o his_o parliament_n in_o which_o he_o ought_v to_o join_v with_o they_o in_o the_o ordination_n and_o establishment_n of_o law_n thus_o you_o see_v you_o fight_v against_o god_n and_o against_o christ_n and_o all_o his_o member_n you_o fight_v against_o yourself_o and_o against_o the_o whole_a kingdom_n and_o state_n you_o fight_v against_o the_o law_n and_o endeavour_v to_o destroy_v the_o parliament_n the_o representative_a body_n of_o the_o whole_a kingdom_n and_o so_o consequent_o you_o fight_v against_o the_o king_n but_o the_o lord_n sit_v in_o heaven_n and_o shall_v laugh_v he_o will_v have_v you_o in_o derision_n psalm_n 1.2.4_o he_o let_v you_o alone_o till_o the_o measure_n of_o your_o iniquity_n be_v full_a as_o it_o be_v with_o the_o amorites_n gen._n 15.26_o then_o the_o lord_n will_v power_n forth_o the_o cup_n of_o his_o fury_n and_o will_v destroy_v they_o utter_o because_o you_o be_v so_o incense_v and_o enrage_v against_o the_o church_n &_o people_n of_o god_n isa_n 41.11_o you_o shall_v be_v as_o nothing_o and_o as_o a_o thing_n of_o naught_o vers_fw-la
