A56434	A shield of the truth, or, The truth of God cleared from scandals and reproaches cast upon it by scandalous and reproachfull tongues which the devil in all ages did make use of, whereby he blasphemed the truth of God, striving to present it odious in the eyes and ears of all people, that so he might uphold his own kingdom, but the day hath made him manifest, & the Lord is come, & is coming to make war with him, and bind him, and cast him into the bottomless pit and all who bears his image, and under his dominion is written by ...

that_o be_v sufficient_a to_o pacify_v for_o our_o sin_n and_o yet_o do_v not_o repent_v but_o say_v the_o lord_n bring_v no_o more_o vain_a oblation_n away_o with_o your_o new_a moon_n and_o
