therein_o though_o the_o king_n himself_o shall_v forbid_v though_o the_o king_n shall_v deny_v his_o assent_n and_o declare_v his_o most_o express_a dissent_n and_o threat_n against_o it_o yet_o they_o will_v persist_v therein_o all_o the_o day_n of_o their_o life_n 13._o yea_o though_o king_n and_o parliament_n as_o be_v now_o come_v to_o pass_v shall_v make_v law_n against_o it_o they_o must_v be_v zealous_a and_o constant_a in_o this_o common_a cause_n so_o little_a regard_n will_v the_o covenant_n allow_v to_o this_o day_n to_o the_o king_n consent_n 14._o yet_o heed_n what_o follow_v against_o all_o opposition_n and_o promote_v the_o same_o against_o all_o let_n and_o impediment_n whatsoever_o give_v i_o leave_v to_o say_v though_o this_o opposition_n these_o let_n and_o impediment_n be_v from_o the_o king_n himself_o as_o you_o know_v they_o be_v at_o this_o very_a same_o time_n this_o being_n impose_v by_o the_o two_o house_n and_o take_v by_o the_o people_n and_o the_o king_n himself_o in_o arm_n to_o defend_v his_o own_o and_o the_o church_n government_n 15._o pray_v resolve_v where_o then_o be_v the_o king_n consent_v or_o if_o the_o king_n please_v to_o

carry_v opposition_n too_o be_v yourselves_o the_o judge_n the_o word_n be_v against_o all_o opposition_n how_o can_v you_o be_v engage_v to_o endeavour_v against_o all_o opposition_n but_o by_o opposition_n against_o all_o opposition_n but_o by_o oppose_v all_o opposition_n even_o that_o which_o the_o king_n himself_o shall_v make_v or_o rather_o indeed_o do_v make_v 17._o now_o how_o you_o can_v oppose_v the_o king_n or_o the_o opposition_n make_v by_o he_o and_o his_o commission_n and_o yet_o understand_v his_o consent_n in_o the_o same_o matter_n i_o think_v you_o will_v not_o go_v about_o to_o inform_v i_o 18._o once_o more_o that_o the_o endeavour_n of_o the_o covenant_n carry_v force_n and_o opposition_n in_o they_o according_a to_o the_o grammatical_a construction_n and_o

enter_v into_o this_o league_n and_o covenant_n in_o the_o maintain_n and_o pursue_v thereof_o 19_o which_o expression_n i_o shall_v abhor_v to_o infer_v it_o do_v not_o my_o argument_n force_v it_o do_v beyond_o all_o capacity_n of_o contradiction_n engage_v the_o covenanter_n in_o a_o party_n to_o live_v and_o die_v together_o in_o a_o hostile_a way_n of_o opposition_n against_o the_o king_n and_o his_o army_n and_o friend_n in_o a_o pursuit_n of_o the_o end_n of_o the_o covenant_n 20._o which_o can_v consist_v with_o the_o place_n of_o subject_n or_o lawful_a endeavour_n or_o possible_o suppose_v the_o king_n consent_n 21._o i_o can_v rejoice_v to_o conclude_v that_o this_o meaning_n of_o the_o covenant_n be_v express_v at_o first_o by_o the_o prime_a inventor_n and_o contriver_n of_o the_o covenant_n such_o word_n as_o these_o you_o find_v in_o a_o declaration_n call_v the_o declaration_n of_o the_o convention_n of_o estate_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o scotland_n 22._o to_o our_o knowledge_n say_v they_o upon_o swear_v and_o subscribe_v of_o this_o league_n and_o covenant_n the_o opposite_a malignant_a party_n will_v rage_v and_o tumultuate_v more_o than_o ever_o and_o therefore_o unless_o we_o will_v either_o betray_v our_o religion_n liberty_n and_o law_n and_o all_o that_o we_o and_o we_o do_v possess_v and_o suffer_v ourselves_o to_o be_v cut_v off_o and_o massacre_v by_o the_o bloody_a and_o barbarous_a cruelty_n of_o those_o our_o enrage_a enemy_n there_o be_v a_o necessity_n of_o take_v arm_n for_o mutual_a defence_n 23._o last_o that_o the_o king_n consent_n be_v little_o intend_v or_o understand_v in_o the_o covenant_n be_v yet_o more_o manifest_a if_o it_o be_v consider_v that_o it_o be_v not_o only_o make_v and_o publish_v and_o press_v without_o notice_n give_v he_o and_o at_o such_o a_o time_n too_o and_o condition_n of_o affair_n as_o have_v serve_v the_o king_n from_o the_o covenant_a party_n but_o it_o be_v still_o carry_v on_o
