god_n name_n in_o vain_a which_o way_n soev_a one_o do_v not_o keep_v his_o oath_n nor_o commit_v the_o evil_n he_o swear_v too_o yet_o he_o sin_v in_o that_o he_o make_v no_o great_a reckon_n of_o

word_n as_o christ_n say_v and_o if_o one_o be_v subject_n to_o damnation_n for_o every_o vain_a oath_n as_o saint_n james_n affirm_v then_o what_o shall_v be-come_a of_o those_o that_o will_v dare_v to_o call_v god_n to_o bear_v witness_n of_o a_o false_a thing_n and_o bear_v themselves_o out_o in_o a_o lie_n by_o pretend_v his_o name_n therefore_o in_o zaccar_n 5._o the_o lord_n show_v that_o
