god_n and_o if_o they_o be_v continue_v in_o without_o redress_n who_o be_v able_a to_o show_v the_o punishment_n and_o calamity_n which_o in_o time_n will_v ensue_v and_o come_v upon_o we_o in_o this_o land_n the_o contempt_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o grow_v into_o atheism_n thereby_o will_v draw_v down_o infinite_a plague_n and_o misery_n for_o the_o righteous_a god_n will_v not_o always_o

this_o be_v to_o be_v do_v of_o we_o speedy_o because_o dissension_n be_v like_o the_o break_n out_o of_o water_n the_o long_a it_o continue_v the_o wide_a be_v the_o breach_n make_v and_o so_o

to_o be_v seek_v for_o let_v it_o be_v that_o we_o both_o agree_v it_o be_v to_o be_v seek_v and_o also_o do_v seek_v for_o it_o yet_o if_o we_o seek_v not_o the_o right_a way_n we_o be_v never_o

true_a holiness_n and_o sanctification_n the_o other_o be_v in_o error_n and_o sin_n and_o not_o in_o the_o lord_n now_o indeed_o it_o be_v the_o holy_a unity_n in_o the_o lord_n which_o be_v praise_v in_o this_o psalm_n and_o which_o we_o must_v seek_v after_o upon_o which_o the_o blessing_n of_o god_n shall_v come_v this_o may_v you_o see_v by_o that_o exhortation_n of_o saint_n paul_n ephes_n 4._o when_o he_o say_v study_v to_o keep_v the_o unity_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o the_o band_n of_o peace_n for_o he_o add_v as_o the_o reason_n there_o be_v one_o body_n and_o one_o spirit_n as_o you_o be_v all_o call_v in_o hope_n of_o your_o call_n one_o lord_n one_o faith_n one_o baptism_n one_o god_n and_o father_n of_o all_o etc._n etc._n for_o like_a as_o all_o the_o member_n of_o the_o

he_o say_v also_o because_o as_o there_o be_v a_o reconciliation_n wrought_v by_o christ_n between_o god_n and_o man_n and_o so_o a_o man_n be_v come_v into_o unity_n with_o god_n he_o must_v also_o
