appearance_n look_v very_o brave_a and_o for_o the_o present_n may_v gain_v a_o popular_a applause_n but_o in_o the_o end_n serve_v only_o to_o expose_v the_o person_n themselves_o and_o the_o cause_n

than_o to_o be_v oppress_v that_o no_o government_n can_v be_v destitute_a of_o a_o power_n to_o relieve_v itself_o that_o the_o whole_a be_v better_a than_o a_o part_n that_o this_o late_a

for_o what_o can_v induce_v one_o man_n to_o obey_v another_o but_o that_o he_o engage_v to_o protect_v he_o for_o if_o i_o be_o bind_v to_o obey_v where_o i_o have_v not_o a_o assurance_n of_o
