near_o to_o the_o north_n of_o the_o which_o we_o have_v before_o show_v be_v people_v and_o inhabit_v although_o according_a to_o the_o say_n of_o herodita_fw-it these_o hill_n be_v direct_o under_o

so_o that_o by_o this_o mean_v we_o will_v conclude_v and_o say_v that_o it_o be_v better_a more_o commodious_a &_o more_o wholesome_a for_o our_o human_a life_n than_o any_o other_o for_o even_o as_o
