contrary_a reason_n and_o enducement_n for_o fear_n either_o of_o contradiction_n or_o injustice_n and_o first_o it_o be_v out_o of_o question_n that_o all_o penal_a law_n be_v but_o obligation_n of_o

and_o such_o a_o omission_n it_o may_v be_v to_o refuse_v to_o worship_n god_n but_o to_o refuse_v to_o worship_v he_o after_o this_o or_o that_o manner_n will_v hardly_o rise_v unto_o it_o yet_o will_v it_o not_o straight_o way_n follow_v that_o because_o it_o be_v just_o that_o offender_n in_o that_o kind_n shall_v be_v punish_v therefore_o the_o supreme_a magistrate_n be_v unjust_a that_o inflict_v no_o punishment_n upon_o they_o because_o we_o be_v to_o know_v that_o injustice_n do_v not_o always_o follow_v upon_o the_o not_o do_v of_o what_o be_v just_o for_o as_o it_o do_v not_o

the_o people_n of_o israel_n do_v and_o yet_o we_o do_v not_o say_v he_o be_v unjust_a because_o he_o do_v not_o do_v it_o but_o if_o refusal_n of_o communion_n with_o the_o church_n of_o england_n
