occasion_n to_o admire_v the_o little_a conscience_n of_o your_o late_a english_a doctor_n in_o challenge_v the_o father_n of_o the_o first_o five_o hundred_o year_n wherein_o if_o their_o adversary_n

they_o by_o retail_v from_o other_o and_o howsoever_o though_o they_o be_v admit_v and_o take_v as_o you_o give_v they_o up_o yet_o in_o my_o poor_a opinion_n they_o either_o touch_v not_o your_o
