their_o mend_n and_o not_o their_o end_n i_o mean_v only_o in_o respect_n of_o their_o former_a distinct_a title_n and_o government_n shall_v hereby_o be_v mean_v certain_o you_o can_v find_v in_o all_o the_o scripture_n nor_o in_o any_o humane_a writer_n such_o a_o signification_n of_o these_o word_n and_o as_o for_o the_o christian_a belief_n it_o do_v not_o alter_v the_o form_n of_o civil_a

with_o the_o profession_n of_o pagan_n and_o do_v now_o consist_v in_o the_o eastern_a church_n in_o the_o religion_n of_o the_o mahometan_n so_o far_o be_v it_o in_o its_o purity_n and_o integrity_n from_o teach_v we_o to_o disturb_v the_o peace_n of_o any_o kingdom_n to_o seek_v i_o say_v the_o suppression_n and_o removeall_n of_o the_o government_n or_o religion_n thereof_o by_o outward_a

the_o four_o kingdom_n be_v of_o one_o quality_n and_o this_o of_o another_o but_o doubtless_o as_o the_o four_o be_v no_o more_o of_o one_o quality_n than_o gold_n silver_z brass_n and_o iron_n be_v all_o of_o one_o quality_n so_o though_o they_o be_v all_o of_o different_a quality_n from_o this_o yet_o this_o can_v not_o be_v the_o reason_n wherefore_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n ver_fw-la 44._o

of_o a_o world_n in_o which_o all_o the_o kingdom_n on_o earth_n shall_v make_v but_o one_o kingdom_n under_o christ_n when_o once_o the_o time_n comprehend_v by_o the_o image_n shall_v be_v at_o a_o

but_o it_o alone_o shall_v stand_v for_o ever_o and_o that_o text_n john_n 18.36_o my_o kingdom_n be_v not_o of_o this_o world_n do_v help_v also_o to_o confirm_v this_o for_o it_o either_o point_n
