the_o 3_o ground_n or_o reason_n of_o invocate_a the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o a_o oath_n as_o they_o do_v natural_o rise_v of_o that_o term_n of_o my_o text_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d so_o will_v

and_o in_o case_n of_o necessity_n for_o want_n of_o other_o sufficient_a pledge_n god_n do_v vouchsafe_v to_o pledge_v his_o truth_n for_o honest_a man_n that_o mean_v well_o the_o truth_n and_o credit_n of_o god_n be_v great_a than_o man_n and_o therefore_o man_n swear_v by_o he_o as_o by_o a_o great_a 2_o a_o oath_n be_v the_o manifestation_n of_o a_o secret_a truth_n or_o intention_n of_o the_o heart_n for_o to_o swear_v in_o thing_n manifest_a be_v the_o take_n of_o the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o vain_a but_o god_n alone_o be_v the_o knower_n of_o the_o heart_n and_o reins_n therefore_o he_o only_o must_v testify_v that_o which_o be_v perfect_o know_v to_o none_o but_o he_o he_o be_v great_a in_o knowledge_n then_o man_n in_o knowledge_n of_o secret_a thought_n and_o thing_n that_o

his_o truth_n be_v falsify_v his_o name_n be_v abuse_v in_o the_o high_a degree_n great_a reason_n therefore_o that_o he_o shall_v be_v judge_n in_o that_o case_n to_o redeem_v his_o sacred_a name_n by_o take_v vengeance_n upon_o perjure_a person_n from_o this_o ground_n it_o arise_v that_o the_o majesty_n of_o god_n be_v call_v upon_o in_o a_o oath_n ut_fw-la testis_fw-la &_o vindex_fw-la and_o therefore_o as_o god_n do_v pawn_v his_o sacred_a name_n for_o our_o credit_n so_o do_v we_o lay_v in_o a_o counterpane_n of_o our_o salvation_n or_o of_o somewhat_o that_o be_v dear_a unto_o we_o for_o our_o fidelity_n which_o we_o must_v forfeit_v if_o we_o keep_v not_o our_o oath_n the_o apostle_n have_v give_v a_o instance_n of_o a_o perfect_a form_n in_o this_o kind_n 2._o cor._n 1._o
