too_o cunning_a for_o such_o distinction_n for_o god_n sake_n therefore_o lie_v your_o hand_n upon_o your_o heart_n and_o ask_v your_o own_o soul_n what_o pretence_n or_o excuse_n can_v be_v find_v for_o this_o in_o any_o law_n either_o of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o england_n or_o heaven_n be_v there_o any_o one_o word_n either_o in_o the_o common_a or_o statute_n law_n which_o allow_v a_o english_a
