to_o all_o you_o protestant_a persecutor_n whether_o magistrate_n priest_n or_o people_n this_o be_v for_o you_o to_o read_v god_n eternal_a who_o have_v form_v we_o give_v we_o breath_n and_o bring_v

nor_o do_v deserve_v such_o cruel_a and_o inhuman_a usage_n at_o your_o hand_n for_o not_o any_o of_o you_o can_v just_o charge_v we_o with_o evil_a neither_o have_v we_o wrong_v any_o man_n in_o his_o propriety_n or_o estate_n whereby_o the_o creation_n in_o any_o kind_n have_v suffer_v detriment_n or_o loss_n neither_o have_v we_o impair_v any_o man_n reputation_n or_o take_v his_o
