19.23.24_o heart-division_n p._n 19.23.24_o that_o man_n shall_v suffer_v god_n who_o they_o honour_v to_o be_v blaspheme_v 2._o to_o see_v their_o wife_n and_o child_n and_o dear_a friend_n to_o be_v

seducer_n to_o desist_v and_o ask_v they_o why_o they_o do_v so_o and_o entreat_v they_o to_o forbear_v therefore_o these_o must_v come_v under_o the_o magistrate_n restrain_v power_n 4._o then_o follow_v we_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o magistrate_n deal_v with_o they_o viz._n their_o shame_n and_o repentance_n they_o shall_v disclaim_v their_o usurp_a profession_n and_o confess_v that_o they_o
