in_o discern_v the_o heart_n of_o other_o man_n whereas_o now_o in_o spite_n of_o all_o their_o infallibility_n such_o friend_n as_o keith_n and_o leeds_n who_o they_o once_o admire_v profess_v that_o

you_o will_v excuse_v i_o i_o do_v again_o ask_v whether_o you_o do_v own_o george_n fox_n book_n of_o the_o great_a mystery_n because_o doubtless_o you_o have_v read_v it_o and_o if_o you_o will_v
