which_o many_o time_n occasion_n clamour_n when_o because_o of_o their_o rarity_n and_o the_o urgency_n of_o occasion_n they_o must_v needs_o be_v great_a yet_o it_o be_v sufficent_o compensated_a

if_o you_o have_v a_o mind_n to_o put_v money_n into_o the_o bank_n suppose_v a_o 1000_o l._n less_o or_o more_o you_o must_v go_v to_o the_o clark_n and_o ask_v a_o folio_n for_o your_o name_n and_o
