I say I cannot but give my testimony, and chiefly concerning tythes as the Lord hath brought it to me, that for which hath been the cause of so much persecution in all ages, with something concerning oaths, which so many snares, traps and gins, hath been laid for the righteous innocent servants of the Lord, because they cannot swear. And these are the testimonies given forth from one that loves and fears the Lord, M.W.	Watkins, Morgan, fl. 1653-1670.	1665 (1665)	Wing W1071; ESTC R217155	7,077	9

see_v here_o be_v a_o law_n for_o the_o common_a swearer_n by_o itself_o so_o they_o plain_o show_v they_o never_o know_v the_o true_a christ_n that_o hold_v up_o or_o plead_v for_o oath_n for_o what_o strength_n be_v in_o a_o oath_n can_v they_o that_o swear_v as_o soon_o forswear_v let_v we_o go_v back_o a_o little_a but_o to_o the_o last_o state_n whilst_o it_o be_v yet_o in_o memory_n
