against_o i_o from_o the_o malice_n they_o have_v to_o i_o and_o not_o any_o thing_n know_v by_o i_o for_o any_o blasphemy_n there_o be_v in_o it_o for_o i_o be_o sure_a there_o be_v none_o neither_o

for_o the_o law_n of_o man_n or_o any_o late_a act_n of_o parliament_n make_v against_o blasphemy_n i_o be_o also_o sure_a that_o there_o be_v never_o a_o particular_a contain_v in_o this_o bill_n that_o come_v within_o the_o compass_n of_o the_o act_n as_o for_o the_o first_o and_o last_o particular_n in_o the_o bill_n that_o christ_n shall_v die_v for_o his_o own_o sin_n as_o well_o as_o
