to_o kill_v he_o and_o so_o come_v to_o be_v take_v in_o a_o military_a sense_n to_o prosecute_v by_o the_o sword_n but_o because_o i_o be_o resolve_v to_o confine_v my_o discourse_n to_o legal_a or_o

to_o make_v this_o which_o be_v the_o first_o step_n of_o my_o discourse_n as_o plain_a as_o i_o can_v i_o tell_v you_o again_o that_o the_o scripture-word_n for_o to_o persecute_v signify_v to_o

wherein_o the_o several_a book_n of_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n be_v write_v as_o well_o as_o in_o the_o age_n since_o good_a man_n be_v often_o prosecute_v and_o pursue_v by_o
