A83990 Englands remedy of a deadly malady: the vvise-womans saving the city Abel, by delivering the head of Sheba, who was a traitor to the common-wealth of Israel. Which serveth as a pattern, whereby the City of London may be saved, by the wise endeavours of the citizens thereof, like this wise-womans, (which are upon divine record both for our learning and imitation) even by delivering up to law & justice, the traitors to the common-wealth of England. ... 1647 (1647) Wing E3028; Thomason E397_20; ESTC R201676 19,353 23

but_o the_o word_n to_o vote_n will_v have_v be_v deceive_v by_o they_o as_o they_o have_v cheat_v the_o commonwealth_n but_o to_o be_v short_a because_o we_o be_v all_o like_a to_o be_v assault_v
