i_o have_v think_v good_a to_o make_v choice_n of_o these_o word_n of_o the_o prophet_n for_o the_o subject_a of_o my_o ensue_a discourse_n that_o from_o they_o i_o may_v warn_v you_o of_o this_o

but_o before_o i_o proceed_v to_o these_o word_n of_o the_o text_n perhaps_o it_o may_v not_o be_v amiss_o to_o premise_v this_o to_o you_o viz._n that_o i_o have_v not_o make_v choice_n of_o these_o word_n thereby_o intend_v to_o blow_v up_o any_o spark_n of_o rebellion_n or_o to_o give_v any_o encouragement_n to_o rise_v up_o against_o government_n it_o be_v not_o my_o province_n nor_o my_o

such_o as_o do_v rise_v up_o against_o their_o lawful_a ruler_n and_o i_o will_v have_v all_o other_o to_o be_v so_o too_o the_o great_a reason_n that_o any_o may_v be_v apt_a to_o think_v that_o there_o be_v at_o some_o time_n to_o rise_v up_o against_o authority_n and_o lawful_a government_n will_v by_o no_o mean_n tolerate_v and_o make_v it_o lawful_a so_o to_o do_v but_o those_o that_o

our_o bless_a lord_n will_v not_o suffer_v he_o to_o use_v his_o sword_n upon_o this_o account_n to_o save_v his_o life_n but_o bid_v he_o put_v it_o up_o into_o its_o place_n again_o we_o may_v be_v

that_o we_o be_v command_v to_o be_v subject_a to_o king_n and_o all_o in_o authority_n and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o such_o exception_n annex_v to_o such_o command_n that_o any_o time_n or_o
