we_o say_v so_o too_o a_o foul_a imputation_n to_o charge_v the_o reform_a church_n of_o a_o secret_a inclination_n to_o apostatise_v from_o their_o own_o confession_n which_o do_v not_o only_o maintain_v a_o justifiableness_n of_o their_o present_a government_n but_o a_o necessity_n of_o it_o as_o the_o only_a government_n appoint_v by_o god_n in_o his_o church_n as_o we_o show_v in_o

by_o consequence_n they_o will_v not_o change_v it_o for_o any_o other_o form_n in_o the_o world_n because_o they_o tell_v we_o they_o be_v the_o form_n god_n have_v set_v down_o in_o his_o word_n the_o form_n christ_n have_v appoint_v in_o his_o church_n the_o form_n by_o which_o the_o church_n ought_v to_o be_v govern_v can_v we_o think_v the_o church_n that_o thus_o profess_v and_o believe_v can_v ever_o look_v for_o a_o better_a form_n or_o will_v accept_v another_o though_o propound_v to_o they_o as_o better_v when_o they_o profess_v this_o be_v that_o form_n by_o which_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v govern_v the_o testimony_n of_o particular_a divine_n must_v not_o be_v put_v in_o the_o balance_n against_o the_o confession_n of_o whole_a church_n god_n forbid_v that_o all_o that_o
