thy_o heart_n and_o then_o thou_o may_v go_v to_o work_v with_o a_o good_a and_o glad_a courage_n and_o god_n will_v bless_v thy_o proceed_n if_o thou_o will_v serve_v he_o and_o pray_v to_o he_o as_o

thou_o that_o thou_o may_v take_v heed_n of_o the_o dark_a say_n of_o the_o philosopher_n &_o that_o thou_o do_v exercise_v thyself_o in_o this_o book_n for_o if_o thou_o do_v observe_v these_o my_o
