sight_n of_o god_n as_o far_o as_o they_o keep_v their_o place_n and_o well_o use_v their_o talent_n wherefore_o o_o you_o magistrate_n minister_n and_o people_n as_o you_o love_v your_o soul_n and_o

shall_v forbear_v to_o take_v his_o liberty_n as_o a_o know_a christian_a man_n as_o before_z assert_v to_o convince_v man_n conscience_n to_o promote_v and_o zealous_o promulgate_v the_o truth_n as_o far_o as_o he_o know_v it_o by_o the_o force_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n and_o by_o that_o only_a this_o he_o must_v do_v if_o he_o be_v a_o sanctify_a one_o as_o a_o saint_n
