from_o the_o present_a king_n we_o may_v expect_v the_o preservation_n of_o that_o religion_n and_o the_o defence_n of_o it_o to_o the_o utmost_a of_o his_o power_n not_o only_o here_o but_o in_o

to_o he_o which_o be_v one_a that_o we_o be_v then_o willing_a and_o incline_v to_o yield_v he_o true_a allegiance_n and_o 2_o that_o we_o hereafter_o will_v act_v suitable_o to_o that_o inclination_n six_o we_o all_o conceive_v it_o reasonable_a that_o we_o shall_v live_v peaceable_o and_o quiet_o under_o the_o government_n of_o king_n william_n that_o we_o shall_v never_o be_v active_a to_o

who_o take_v it_o think_v be_v mean_v by_o swear_v faith_n and_o true_a allegiance_n to_o king_n william_n and_o therefore_o according_a to_o the_o ordinary_a sense_n impose_v upon_o the_o oath_n by_o many_o wise_a judicious_a person_n we_o ourselves_o think_v it_o reasonable_a to_o take_v it_o and_o sure_o then_o there_o concern_v of_o the_o protestant_a religion_n at_o home_n and_o abroad_o our_o
