help_v the_o lord_n in_o his_o work_n for_o it_o do_v not_o beget_v to_o love_v and_o be_v it_o not_o most_o just_a that_o that_o name_n or_o form_n shall_v be_v leave_v for_o a_o curse_n that_o

which_o to_o morrow_n he_o will_v lay_v aside_o as_o useless_a and_o by_o his_o withdraw_a his_o power_n from_o it_o leave_v it_o no_o better_o than_o a_o idol_n such_o be_v the_o brazen_a serpent_n

their_o brethren_n conscience_n be_v not_o apostasy_n and_o whether_o this_o usurpation_n do_v not_o at_o first_o lead_v the_o church_n of_o rome_n into_o the_o apostasy_n and_o whether_o it_o will_v not_o the_o second_o time_n lead_v the_o quaker_n to_o apostatise_v from_o the_o true_a faith_n once_o deliver_v to_o they_o let_v the_o wise_a in_o heart_n judge_n j._n c._n thou_o accuse_v i_o of_o
