in_o chief_a and_o sole_a proprietor_n who_o be_v the_o world_n and_o all_o that_o dwell_v therein_o part_v indeed_o of_o his_o dominion_n he_o have_v be_v please_v to_o bestow_v on_o the_o son_n of_o

for_o he_o be_v a_o jealous_a god_n and_o will_v not_o give_v his_o honour_n to_o another_o 3._o and_o for_o this_o peculiar_a service_n he_o have_v choose_v to_o be_v wait_v upon_o by_o a_o distinct_a peculiar_a people_n that_o the_o homage_n and_o worship_n of_o the_o world_n may_v be_v present_v to_o he_o in_o public_a by_o proper_a hallow_a hand_n and_o these_o man_n they_o too_o have_v their_o character_n you_o may_v know_v they_o who_o they_o be_v and_o to_o who_o they_o belong_v 4._o in_o the_o last_o place_n we_o may_v mention_v as_o proper_a to_o god_n not_o what_o he_o have_v primary_o reserve_v but_o what_o afterward_o his_o pious_a servant_n out_o of_o zeal_n and_o gratitude_n have_v offer_v to_o he_o such_o be_v all_o donation_n sacred_a to_o his_o name_n and_o

and_o you_o will_v see_v they_o belong_v to_o god_n in_o the_o next_o place_n consider_v we_o what_o be_v caesar_n and_o if_o we_o look_v upon_o he_o we_o shall_v know_v his_o quality_n and_o his_o value_n who_o image_n bear_v he_o and_o who_o do_v he_o represent_v be_v he_o not_o the_o vicegerent_n of_o god_n 1._o wherever_o therefore_o his_o sovereign_n the_o almighty_a have_v not_o prevent_v he_o by_o any_o precedent_n command_v there_o he_o have_v right_a and_o liberty_n to_o put_v forth_o his_o in_o those_o case_n to_o expect_v a_o active_a cheerful_a obedience_n and_o that_o we_o
