by_o a_o unprositable_a life_n when_o we_o do_v not_o only_o render_v ourselves_o not_o desire_v by_o be_v useless_a in_o our_o generation_n but_o be_v as_o it_o be_v kick_v out_o of_o the_o world_n

acceptable_a quanties_n engage_v the_o affection_n of_o other_o but_o be_v like_o smoke_n to_o the_o eye_n of_o those_o which_o they_o converse_v with_o by_o crabbed_a condition_n and_o by_o

of_o posterity_n can_v purge_v away_o this_o reproach_n but_o like_o a_o fret_a canker_n it_o eat_v through_o the_o most_o solid_a marble_n and_o leave_v a_o ugliness_n which_o no_o hand_n can_v
