suspicious_a be_v ordinary_o subject_a to_o the_o deceit_n of_o the_o more_o crafty_a but_o i_o conceive_v that_o it_o be_v best_a to_o be_v virtuous_a both_o for_o this_o world_n and_o the_o other_o too_o for_o if_o you_o be_v in_o prosperity_n it_o serve_v to_o set_v off_o and_o illustrate_v your_o virtue_n if_o in_o adversity_n which_o nevertheless_o may_v be_v decline_v by_o the_o prudence_n

the_o science_n may_v be_v subservient_fw-fr to_o the_o virtue_n their_o mistress_n the_o second_o say_v science_n be_v so_o much_o inferior_a to_o virtue_n as_o the_o mean_n be_v to_o their_o end_n since_o all_o science_n be_v only_o in_o order_n to_o acquire_v virtue_n without_o which_o they_o be_v but_o troublesome_a talk_n and_o dead_a notion_n and_o since_o such_o knowledge_n as_o edify_v

no_o other_o aim_v but_o to_o render_v homage_n to_o virtue_n and_o cherish_v it_o with_o praise_n its_o only_a aliment_n the_o ordinary_a employment_n of_o learned_a person_n be_v to_o extol_v the_o
