this_o the_o answer_n will_v be_v short_a because_o it_o have_v for_o the_o main_a already_o be_v consider_v 1._o that_o the_o covenant_n itself_o be_v unlawful_a which_o therefore_o oblige_v to_o nothing_o but_o repentance_n and_o restitution_n of_o a_o stray_n subject_a to_o his_o allegiance_n to_o god_n and_o the_o king_n again_o 2._o that_o there_o be_v one_o special_a thing_n considerable_a of_o this_o covenant_n which_o will_v keep_v it_o either_o from_o oblige_v or_o from_o be_v any_o kind_n of_o excuse_n or_o extenuation_n of_o the_o crime_n that_o this_o action_n be_v guilty_a of_o and_o that_o be_v the_o voluntary_a take_n of_o that_o covenant_n on_o purpose_n thus_o to_o ensnare_v yourselves_o in_o this_o obligation_n to_o do_v what_o shall_v not_o otherwise_o be_v do_v we_o before_o tell_v you_o that_o herod_n oath_n will_v not_o justify_v the_o behead_v of_o john_n and_o shall_v now_o add_v that_o if_o some_o precedaneous_a hatred_n to_o john_n make_v herod_n lay_v this_o design_n before_o hand_n that_o herodias_n daughter_n shall_v dance_v that_o upon_o her_o dance_n he_o will_v be_v vehement_o please_v that_o upon_o she_o please_v of_o he_o he_o will_v swear_v to_o give_v she_o any_o thing_n she_o shall_v ask_v even_o to_o half_a his_o kingdom_n and_o the_o same_o compact_n appoint_v she_o to_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d petition_n to_o take_v john_n baptist_n head_n for_o her_o reward_n as_o 〈◊〉_d not_o unlikely_a but_o that_o as_o herodias_n be_v of_o counsel_n with_o her_o daughter_n so_o herod_n may_v be_v with_o herodias_n if_o the_o train_n i_o say_v lay_v thus_o sure_a herod_n oath_n will_v take_v off_o but_o little_a from_o the_o crimson_a dye_n of_o his_o murder_n but_o rather_o superadde_a that_o sin_n of_o deep_a hypocrisy_n of_o make_v piety_n and_o the_o religion_n of_o oath_n a_o servant_n and_o instrument_n to_o his_o incest_n and_o murder_n of_o a_o prophet_n and_o then_o i_o shall_v no_o far_o apply_v then_o by_o ask_v this_o question_n do_v you_o not_o take_v this_o covenant_n on_o purpose_n to_o lay_v this_o obligation_n upon_o you_o and_o now_o pretend_v that_o for_o your_o covenant_n sake_n you_o must_v needs_o do_v it_o if_o you_o can_v deny_v this_o o_o then_o remember_v herod_n but_o if_o you_o take_v the_o covenant_n without_o any_o such_o design_n but_o now_o find_v yourselves_o thus_o ensnare_v by_o it_o then_o rather_o remember_v the_o time_n to_o get_v out_o of_o that_o snare_n and_o not_o to_o to_o engage_v yourselves_o fast_o in_o it_o 3._o i_o answer_v that_o if_o by_o uniformity_n be_v mean_v that_o among_o ourselves_o in_o this_o kingdom_n the_o take_v away_o our_o liturgy_n by_o ordinance_n while_o it_o remain_v establish_v by_o valid_a law_n be_v no_o over-fit_a mean_n to_o that_o end_n nothing_o but_o a_o new_a act_n and_o a_o assurance_n that_o all_o will_v be_v obedient_a to_o that_o act_n can_v be_v proper_a for_o that_o purpose_n and_o i_o be_o sure_a there_o be_v some_o man_n in_o the_o world_n who_o if_o such_o a_o act_n displease_v the_o obedience_n will_v not_o be_v very_o uniform_a what_o ever_o it_o may_v seem_v to_o be_v when_o better_a subject_n be_v suppose_v to_o be_v conclude_v by_o it_o but_o if_o it_o be_v uniformity_n with_o the_o best_a reform_a church_n as_o your_o covenant_n mention_n then_o 1._o that_o uniformity_n in_o matter_n of_o form_n or_o ceremony_n be_v no_o way_n necessary_a communion_n betwixt_o church_n may_v be_v preserve_v without_o it_o nor_o near_o so_o useful_a as_o that_o other_o among_o ourselves_o and_o therefore_o the_o bargain_n will_v be_v none_o of_o the_o most_o thrive_a when_o that_o acquisition_n be_v pay_v so_o dear_a for_o uniformity_n with_o stranger_n purchase_v with_o confusion_n at_o home_n as_o bad_a a_o market_n as_o unequal_a a_o barter_n as_o if_o we_o shall_v enter_v upon_o a_o civil_a war_n for_o no_o other_o gain_n then_o to_o make_v up_o a_o peace_n with_o some_o neighbour_n prince_n which_o none_o but_o a_o mad_a statesman_n will_v ever_o counsel_v but_o then_o 4._o the_o covenant_n for_o such_o uniformity_n oblige_v not_o to_o make_v this_o directory_n which_o i_o shall_v prove_v 1._o by_o the_o verdict_n of_o those_o themselves_o which_o have_v take_v the_o covenant_n of_o who_o many_o i_o be_o confident_a never_o conceive_v themselves_o thereby_o

do_v not_o oblige_v to_o abolish_v liturgy_n not_o only_o because_o the_o general_a matter_n of_o the_o covenant_n refer_v unto_o the_o government_n and_o not_o to_o the_o liturgy_n but_o because_o
