it_o before_o they_o come_v that_o they_o come_v after_o the_o due_a order_n 2_o the_o whole_a house_n be_v full_a of_o guest_n and_o there_o be_v amongst_o they_o all_o but_o only_o one_o man_n that_o want_v a_o wedding_n garment_n in_o such_o a_o crowd_n and_o company_n one_o will_v think_v that_o happy_o one_o may_v have_v skulk_v and_o have_v lyen_fw-we hide_v and_o not_o have_v be_v
