that_o he_o can_v obey_v it_o without_o hazard_n of_o his_o aeternnll_a salvation_n it_o be_v unjust_a not_o to_o obey_v they_o and_o the_o apostle_n precept_n take_v place_n servant_n in_o all_o

it_o will_v at_o once_o be_v manifest_a what_o we_o must_v do_v and_o what_o abstain_v from_o at_o the_o command_n of_o city_n and_o of_o prince_n iii_o but_o by_o obedience_n in_o this_o
