i_o i_o shall_v proceed_v to_o what_o remain_v viz._n second_o to_o apply_v this_o text_n to_o such_o thing_n chief_o the_o 2_o d._n application_n to_o thing_n viz._n against_o rebellion_n chief_o against_o which_o it_o be_v direct_o and_o natural_o applicable_a and_o sure_o it_o can_v be_v apply_v against_o nothing_o so_o direct_o as_o against_o zedekiah_n crime_n of_o ingratitude_n

that_o contain_v all_o the_o rest_n i._n e_fw-la rebellion_n for_o no_o man_n can_v be_v a_o rebel_n but_o he_o must_v be_v be_v every_o rebel_n must_v be_v ungrateful_a as_o well_o as_o perfidious_a 1._o he_o must_v be_v ungrateful_a ungrateful_a one_a ungrateful_a for_o the_o preservation_n of_o his_o life_n or_o fortune_n and_o of_o what_o soever_o can_v be_v dear_a to_o he_o he_o owe_v whole_o
