further_a object_n that_o some_o good_a man_n will_v be_v offend_v at_o your_o acceptance_n of_o that_o title_n i_o confess_v it_o be_v very_o considerable_a and_o i_o think_v every_o judicial_a

you_o of_o the_o character_n you_o give_v of_o good_a man_n in_o your_o last_o speech_n they_o be_v such_o you_o say_v as_o give_v obedience_n to_o gospel-ordinance_n which_o require_v obedience_n
