well_o to_o answer_v these_o and_o the_o like_a reason_n before_o you_o so_o peremptory_o assert_v any_o inferior_a court_n to_o be_v authentic_a interpreter_n of_o public_a oath_n you_o have_v best_o have_v a_o care_n that_o you_o be_v not_o follow_v with_o a_o cry_n of_o privilege_n of_o parliament_n and_o indeed_o that_o legislative_a power_n be_v little_o better_a than_o ridiculous_a which_o may_v be_v authentical_o evade_v or_o make_v quite_o another_o thing_n by_o the_o inferior_a minister_n of_o it_o and_o after_o all_o the_o interpretation_n of_o those_o court_n will_v not_o excuse_v you_o from_o insincerity_n and_o prevaricate_a with_o the_o state_n as_o you_o seem_v to_o fear_v p._n 10._o for_o if_o those_o court_n do_v give_v a_o low_a and_o more_o easy_a sense_n of_o the_o oath_n than_o can_v reasonable_o be_v think_v be_v intend_v by_o the_o imposer_n you_o ought_v not_o to_o catch_v at_o that_o for_o a_o advantage_n which_o they_o have_v no_o power_n to_o give_v nor_o ought_v you_o to_o join_v with_o they_o in_o elude_v the_o oath_n but_o to_o take_v care_n of_o yourselves_o that_o they_o neither_o cousin_n you_o nor_o you_o other_o for_o a_o oath_n ought_v to_o be_v take_v in_o judgement_n truth_n and_o righteousness_n in_o all_o which_o point_v you_o will_v fail_v if_o you_o take_v this_o course_n but_o have_v a_o care_v you_o do_v not_o gull_v yourself_o at_o the_o last_o for_o what_o be_v that_o innocent_a sense_n which_o the_o most_o tender_a recusant_n may_v have_v swear_v to_o true_o i_o think_v the_o secret_a be_v worth_a money_n and_o poor_a as_o i_o be_o i_o will_v have_v give_v something_o to_o know_v it_o but_o that_o we_o may_v not_o trisle_v with_o our_o conscience_n i_o desire_v you_o and_o all_o your_o innocent_a brethren_n to_o give_v i_o any_o one_o innocent_a sense_n wherein_o a_o oath_n may_v be_v take_v to_o a_o usurper_n in_o order_n to_o the_o maintain_v his_o usurpation_n against_o the_o lawful_a king_n and_o though_o i_o do_v not_o believe_v that_o either_o you_o or_o they_o though_o man_n of_o admirable_a invention_n can_v ever_o do_v it_o yet_o if_o you_o can_v it_o will_v not_o do_v your_o work_n for_o it_o be_v not_o what_o sense_n you_o give_v or_o take_v but_o what_o they_o impose_v but_o sir_n whilst_o you_o plead_v for_o other_o sincerity_n you_o render_v your_o own_o very_a suspicious_a for_o why_o be_v you_o so_o scrupulous_a about_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o oath_n do_v not_o you_o insolent_o charge_v king_n james_n with_o a_o session_n do_v not_o you_o thence_o ground_n a_o vacancy_n do_v not_o you_o assert_v william_n to_o be_v admit_v according_a to_o the_o law_n and_o constitution_n and_o by_o the_o proper_a judge_n now_o though_o these_o thing_n be_v never_o so_o false_a yet_o if_o you_o believe_v they_o true_a you_o believe_v he_o to_o be_v your_o lawful_a king_n and_o therefore_o according_a to_o your_o declare_a judgement_n may_v without_o scruple_n take_v the_o oath_n in_o as_o severe_a a_o sense_n as_o ever_o any_o oath_n of_o allegiance_n have_v be_v give_v in_o among_o we_o and_o therefore_o for_o you_o to_o make_v such_o a_o pother_n about_o sense_n and_o to_o look_v about_o so_o sharp_a for_o a_o innocent_a sense_n be_v enough_o to_o make_v a_o man_n suspect_v that_o you_o do_v not_o deal_v bona_fw-la side_n but_o that_o there_o be_v something_o still_o

about_o if_o they_o be_v not_o sensible_a already_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o they_o will_v in_o a_o little_a time_n and_o now_o sir_n if_o you_o will_v give_v i_o the_o same_o liberty_n to_o put_v together_o which_o you_o take_v i_o can_v learn_v from_o all_o this_o how_o our_o old_a law_n and_o oath_n bind_v we_o to_o your_o new_a allegiance_n but_o that_o rather_o our_o constitution_n and_o

when_o you_o set_v pen_n to_o paper_n it_o be_v to_o this_o effect_n that_o when_o the_o violence_n be_v essential_o unjust_a unnatural_a and_o contrary_a to_o the_o moral_a and_o eternal_a law_n of_o god_n and_o righteousness_n no_o human_a compact_n can_v ratify_v such_o wrong_n or_o justify_v and_o confirm_v what_o be_v essential_o injurious_a nor_o ought_v the_o priest_n of_o the_o most_o

then_o why_o then_o suppose_v say_v you_o p._n 6._o a_o son_n by_o fraudulent_a art_n get_v judgement_n in_o law_n and_o seize_v his_o father_n estate_n and_o body_n by_o execution_n and_o starve_v his_o father_n in_o prison_n this_o man_n immorality_n be_v damnable_a be_v it_o so_o i_o think_v this_o be_v a_o bone_n for_o some_o body_n to_o pick_v which_o may_v hold_v he_o tug_v though_o his_o

so_o whilst_o they_o act_v as_o officer_n of_o law_n and_o according_a to_o the_o direction_n of_o law_n but_o if_o your_o judge_n sheriff_n or_o other_o officer_n make_v themselves_o party_n and_o

for_o it_o but_o now_o let_v the_o five_o commandment_n look_v to_o itself_o for_o it_o be_v never_o so_o hardly_o beset_v there_o be_v a_o sort_n of_o protestant_n who_o i_o think_v be_v resolve_v
