of_o conscience_n also_o that_o his_o majesty_n will_v out_o of_o the_o dept●_n of_o his_o excellent_a wisdom_n and_o providence_n think_v and_o as_o it_o be_v calculate_v with_o himself_o whether_o

his_o majesty_n can_v begin_v too_o soon_o now_o in_o my_o opinion_n time_n will_v open_v and_o facilitate_v thing_n for_o reformation_n of_o religion_n there_o and_o not_o shut_v up_o or_o lock_v
