Electors of the Emperour they afterwards descend from their seats and there before the Audience take a Solemn Oath one after another in these following words I doe Swear upon this Evangelist before me that with all my Faith which I owe to God my diligence and care which I owe to the Emperour without former reward or future hope of greater Honour that I will chuse with all my Faith and Truth a Just
