with_o a_o warning_n to_o they_o to_o repent_v and_o turn_v from_o the_o evil_a of_o their_o way_n and_o fear_v the_o lord_n lest_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n come_v upon_o they_o at_o unaware_o upon_o the_o second_o day_n of_o the_o eight_o month_n call_v by_o the_o world_n october_n in_o the_o year_n 1660._o the_o general_a quarter_n session_n for_o the_o county_n of_o ox_n be_v keep_v at_o

and_o therefore_o you_o be_v enemy_n to_o christ_n jesus_n and_o king_n charles_n for_o christ_n say_v swear_v not_o at_o all_o and_o king_n charles_n have_v promise_v that_o we_o shall_v have_v the_o

for_o it_o and_o this_o he_o have_v promise_v to_o my_o friend_n which_o be_v one_o with_o i_o in_o spirit_n and_o it_o be_v now_o in_o print_n to_o the_o public_a view_n of_o his_o subject_n therefore_o you_o be_v no_o friend_n neither_o to_o god_n nor_o the_o king_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a you_o be_v enemy_n to_o both_o because_o you_o go_v about_o and_o do_v as_o much_o as_o in_o
