do_v further_o if_o this_o be_v a_o good_a reason_n because_o the_o star_n do_v fight_v against_o sisera_n therefore_o the_o influence_n of_o star_n reach_v to_o success_n in_o man_n action_n why_o shall_v not_o this_o be_v as_o good_a the_o river_n kison_n help_v the_o people_n of_o god_n against_o sisera_n therefore_o the_o influence_n of_o the_o river_n do_v the_o like_a for_o there_o be_v

which_o before_o we_o have_v rehearse_v out_o of_o the_o book_n entitle_v the_o centiloquie_n that_o no_o astrologer_n be_v able_a by_o mere_a art_n without_o the_o help_n of_o a_o familiar_a spirit_n
