be_v oblige_v to_o peace_n in_o the_o state_n or_o peace_n in_o the_o church_n the_o answer_n be_v plain_a and_o ready_a from_o hence_o that_o we_o be_v oblige_v to_o both_o as_o far_o as_o be_v possible_a and_o as_o much_o as_o in_o we_o lie_v and_o that_o nothing_o less_o than_o absolute_a and_o evident_a necessity_n can_v justify_v either_o war_n in_o the_o state_n or_o separation_n in_o the_o church_n which_o one_o rule_n if_o well_o heed_v and_o practise_v the_o condition_n of_o the_o world_n will_v be_v much_o more_o peaceable_a and_o quiet_a than_o it_o be_v or_o be_v like_a to_o
