so_o understand_v it_o yet_o oftentimes_o they_o have_v give_v we_o occasion_n of_o laughter_n the_o first_o be_v that_o when_o we_o tell_v they_o that_o some_o refuse_v so_o great_a a_o office_n straightway_o they_o ask_v where_o you_o say_v that_o they_o refuse_v it_o be_v it_o not_o evident_a that_o their_o excuse_n will_v not_o be_v accept_v as_o who_o shall_v say_v if_o they_o will_v accept_v of_o it_o who_o be_v there_o that_o will_v make_v a_o excuse_n and_o thus_o they_o say_v because_o they_o do_v so_o themselves_o nicety_n for_o when_o great_a office_n be_v bestow_v upon_o they_o eftsoon_o they_o offer_v up_o a_o petition_n make_v a_o thousand_o excuse_n to_o the_o king_n not_o to_o receive_v they_o and_o they_o desi●e_v nothing_o less_o neither_o can_v any_o thing_n happen_v so_o grievous_a unto_o they_o as_o to_o accept_v their_o excuse_n but_o usual_o they_o be_v not_o admit_v though_o sometime_o they_o be_v to_o their_o great_a grief_n of_o heart_n as_o i_o myself_o have_v see_v but_o to_o excuse_v themselves_o or_o to_o refuse_v with_o some_o danger_n be_v the_o use_n so_o common_a that_o they_o will_v not_o fail_v to_o do_v so_o for_o if_o they_o shall_v not_o do_v so_o it_o be_v more_o certain_a that_o they_o shall_v go_v without_o the_o office_n the_o second_o thing_n that_o make_v we_o more_o to_o laugh_v be_v that_o many_o of_o they_o tell_v we_o that_o if_o we_o will_v return_v into_o our_o country_n without_o doubt_n they_o will_v make_v we_o pope_n the_o reason_n though_o not_o open_o which_o they_o yield_v be_v that_o we_o
