A60636	Innocency and conscientiousness of the Quakers asserted and cleared from the evil surmises, false aspersions, and unrighteous suggestions of Judge Keeling expressed in his speech made the seventh of the seventh month at the sessions-house in the Old-Baily ... : wherein also is shewed that this law doth not concern them, they being no seditious sectaries, nor contrivers of insurrections, nor evil-doers, therefore no just law is against them.	Smith, William, d. 1673.	1664 (1664)	Wing S4308; ESTC R16062	11,414	18

doer_n shall_v be_v as_o true_a as_o any_o that_o take_v oath_n and_o if_o false_a our_o penalty_n the_o see_v with_o false_a swearer_n and_o further_o witness_n under_o moses_n law_n have_v no_o
