if_o in_o his_o love_n and_o hearty_a affection_n he_o true_o and_o reciprocal_o return_v not_o the_o best_a of_o his_o service_n other_o also_o that_o sit_v at_o the_o helm_n and_o have_v the_o

notwithstanding_o the_o convenience_n allurement_n and_o advantage_n which_o cause_n most_o man_n to_o be_v so_o much_o in_o love_n with_o live_v about_o the_o town_n and_o court_n the_o country_n

of_o home_n though_o a_o man_n be_v not_o tie_v to_o a_o continual_a attendance_n yet_o he_o be_v to_o some_o and_o if_o he_o be_v but_o now_o &_o then_o there_o his_o estimation_n and_o respect_n

sometime_o at_o court_n mix_v together_o but_o as_o the_o frenchman_n do_v allay_v their_o drink_n three_o part_n water_n to_o one_o of_o wine_n of_o religion_n there_o be_v never_o yet_o nation_n
