you_o will_v be_v it_o never_o so_o perverse_o nay_o nothing_o but_o false_o and_o all_o the_o better_a because_o of_o the_o covenant_n haec_fw-la est_fw-la lex_fw-la adami_n be_v it_o not_o god_n

demeanour_n ever_o be_v without_o coven_n or_o collusion_n neither_o falsehood_n nor_o perverseness_n in_o the_o carriage_n of_o it_o of_o thus_o much_o they_o now_o make_v a_o solemn_a profession_n and_o that_o be_v the_o second_o last_o that_o god_n in_o his_o good_a time_n will_v rescue_v and_o deliver_v they_o that_o be_v to_o be_v infer_v here_o and_o it_o be_v express_v in_o the_o close_a of_o the_o psalm_n and_o that_o be_v the_o three_o now_o in_o the_o foremost_a of_o these_o will_v come_v to_o be_v consider_v the_o person_n first_o who_o they_o be_v that_o pretend_v to_o this_o

two_o will_v make_v the_o covenant_n itself_o know_v so_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v to_o seek_v in_o that_o neither_o the_o next_o part_n will_v be_v the_o hard_a of_o the_o two_o but_o yet_o in_o that_o we_o shall_v have_v two_o chief_a point_n to_o guide_v we_o the_o first_o matter_n of_o law_n what_o it_o be_v to_o be_v perverse_a to_o be_v false_a and_o froward_a in_o such_o a_o case_n and_o therein_o no_o less_o than_o the_o law_n itself_o yea_o no_o other_o than_o the_o lawgiver_n god_n himself_o will_v be_v for_o our_o rule_n so_o we_o need_v not_o fear_v the_o fraud_n of_o a_o bold_a pleader_n to_o make_v a_o nose_n of_o wax_n of_o it_o nor_o the_o flaunt_n of_o a_o rude_a hackster_n to_o hew_v out_o his_o own_o pleasure_n in_o it_o no_o annuntiabunt_fw-la caeli_fw-la
