they_o wear_v long_a hair_n and_o they_o suffer_v their_o lock_n to_o grow_v long_o therefore_o they_o express_o oppose_v and_o contradict_v the_o word_n of_o god_n if_o any_o now_o reply_n that_o

and_o for_o a_o badge_n or_o emblem_n of_o their_o subjection_n to_o their_o husband_n must_v needs_o be_v unnatural_a and_o so_o unlawful_a unto_o man_n but_o the_o wear_n and_o nourish_v of_o long_a

our_o nation_n do_v general_o heretofore_o and_o do_v yet_o for_o the_o most_o part_n cut_v their_o hair_n of_o a_o decent_a grave_a and_o comely_a manner_n without_o any_o reservation_n of_o a_o

and_o long_o unshorn_a hair_n together_o with_o the_o reservation_n of_o these_o effeminate_a fantastic_a ridiculous_a and_o uncivil_a love-lock_n must_v needs_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o law_n of_o

must_v needs_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n because_o 94._o these_o sin_n and_o vice_n be_v so_o but_o for_o man_n to_o wear_v long_a hair_n or_o love-lock_n in_o any_o christian_n
