affair_n as_o it_o appear_v by_o these_o word_n immediate_o follow_v viz._n let_v your_o communication_n be_v yea_o yea_o and_o nay_o nay_o for_o whatsoever_o be_v more_o than_o these_o come_v of_o

when_o the_o matter_n be_v doubtful_a and_o of_o concern_v and_o no_o evidence_n can_v be_v have_v to_o clear_a and_o decide_v it_o when_o they_o be_v not_o only_o lawful_a but_o also_o very_o necessary_a the_o corruption_n of_o humane_a nature_n have_v make_v man_n such_o a_o false_a and_o fickle_a creature_n that_o his_o single_a testimony_n can_v be_v sufficient_a security_n for_o another_o especial_o in_o weighty_a case_n and_o therefore_o in_o swear_v he_o call_v god_n for_o a_o witness_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o what_o he_o say_v and_o affirm_v now_o this_o call_n or_o ask_v a_o testimony_n from_o god_n make_v a_o oath_n become_v a_o part_n of_o god_n worship_n and_o give_v he_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o honour_n and_o glory_n for_o hereby_o he_o that_o swear_v

he_o to_o be_v the_o searcher_n of_o heart_n and_o reins_o and_o that_o he_o know_v the_o secret_a intent_n and_o meaning_n of_o our_o spirit_n he_o acknowledge_v also_o his_o infallible_a truth_n for_o this_o be_v manifest_o carry_v in_o his_o oath_n that_o though_o he_o be_v a_o false_a and_o deceitful_a creature_n and_o his_o affirmation_n can_v obtain_v universal_a and_o full_a evidence_n yet_o he_o that_o be_v great_a than_o he_o by_o who_o name_n he_o swear_v can_v deceive_v and_o last_o he_o acknowledge_v his_o righteousness_n for_o he_o that_o swear_v do_v either_o express_o or_o
