but_o if_o absolution_n can_v not_o be_v deny_v by_o reason_n of_o habitation_n or_o because_o they_o serve_v in_o favour_n of_o the_o hollander_n it_o may_v perhaps_o be_v deny_v by_o reason_n of_o

for_o so_o it_o tend_v likewise_o to_o the_o defence_n of_o a_o man_n own_o life_n and_o good_n this_o cause_n then_o of_o defence_n do_v exceed_o justify_v the_o war_n because_o it_o be_v favour_v
