his_o office_n in_o such_o a_o way_n why_o not_o by_o a_o unjust_a separation_n from_o or_o rejection_n of_o he_o 2._o if_o a_o people_n sinful_a rejection_n of_o their_o officer_n do_v not_o

he_o cease_v from_o be_v their_o minister_n and_o this_o open_v as_o wide_a a_o door_n for_o the_o people_n of_o a_o city_n or_o nation_n to_o un-minist_a themselves_o or_o to_o leave_v themselves_o
