fair_a and_o beautiful_a wheresoever_o they_o come_v and_o be_v as_o somebody_o in_o the_o world_n these_o do_v thus_o and_o thus_o these_o forsake_v the_o truth_n of_o god_n and_o seek_v to_o

therefore_o we_o must_v now_o propound_v those_o thing_n that_o may_v help_v to_o take_v off_o the_o mind_n of_o man_n from_o the_o earth_n eleven_o consideration_n to_o take_v off_o man_n heart_n

if_o this_o be_v so_o that_o there_o be_v more_o evil_a in_o the_o least_o fin_n than_o there_o be_v good_a in_o all_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o earth_n it_o concern_v thou_o rather_o to_o have_v thy_o

of_o the_o earth_n it_o may_v be_v thou_o that_o be_v poor_a and_o mean_a in_o the_o world_n thy_o mind_n be_v upon_o some_o little_a matter_n thou_o can_v never_o expect_v to_o have_v any_o great_a
