of_o protestant_n do_v first_o arise_v for_o when_o luther_n do_v first_o renounce_v that_o strumpet_n of_o rome_n he_o cause_v they_o all_o that_o be_v with_o he_o to_o enter_v into_o a_o

of_o late_o take_v the_o very_a same_o protestation_n against_o all_o popery_n and_o popish_a innovation_n therefore_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o we_o have_v many_o among_o we_o who_o will_v hazard_v life_n and_o state_n and_o all_o they_o have_v to_o maintain_v that_o protestation_n and_o so_o by_o the_o good_a blessing_n of_o the_o lord_n will_v prove_v themselves_o good_a and_o faithful_a protestant_n but_o for_o the_o second_o although_o i_o call_v it_o calvin_n institution_n yet_o not_o as_o if_o he_o have_v make_v it_o of_o his_o own_o head_n but_o as_o a_o faithful_a servant_n of_o

that_o have_v thus_o engage_v themselves_o be_v convince_v that_o their_o doctrine_n worship_n discipline_n and_o government_n be_v agreeable_a to_o god_n word_n else_o why_o have_v we_o bind_v

and_o for_o this_o i_o hope_v we_o be_v convince_v that_o the_o presbyterial_a be_v the_o best_a reformation_n else_o why_o do_v we_o bind_v ourselves_o to_o preserve_v it_o in_o scotland_n we_o be_v or_o shall_v be_v resolve_v be_v resolve_v before_o we_o vow_v and_o not_o after_o vow_n to_o make_v enquiry_n prov._n 20.25_o again_o we_o swear_v that_o we_o will_v endeavour_v to_o bring_v the_o church_n of_o god_n in_o the_o three_o kingdom_n to_o the_o near_a conjunction_n and_o uniformity_n in_o religion_n confession_n of_o faith_n sorme_n of_o church-government_n directory_n for_o

thus_o far_o bless_v be_v the_o lord_n for_o our_o bless_a union_n therefore_o my_o motion_n i_o hope_v will_v not_o seem_v strange_a when_o i_o shall_v desire_v faithfulness_n to_o our_o late_a
