case_n of_o the_o captivity_n of_o judah_n be_v their_o despise_n of_o the_o messenger_n of_o god_n 2_o chron._n 36.16.2_o because_o such_o sin_n do_v more_o exceed_o divide_v and_o untie_v the_o

what_o hand_n they_o be_v that_o sow_v such_o doctrine_n among_o we_o with_o a_o purpose_n no_o doubt_n to_o make_v use_n of_o a_o boundless_a licence_n to_o instill_v corrupt_a doctrine_n into_o as_o many_o as_o they_o find_v fit_a tinder_n to_o catch_v that_o fire_n since_o therefore_o such_o a_o charge_n do_v evident_o lie_v upon_o magistrate_n to_o use_v their_o power_n for_o the_o peace_n

it_o if_o such_o word_n or_o such_o writing_n be_v blasphemous_a and_o subversive_a to_o church_n or_o state_n or_o both_o and_o high_o derogatory_a to_o the_o honour_n of_o christ_n civil_a

3.15_o 2._o we_o say_v christ_n do_v never_o either_o purchase_n or_o permit_v to_o any_o man_n profess_v himself_o a_o christian_n a_o liberty_n to_o subvert_v or_o endeavour_v to_o subvert_v by_o
