A68419 Siuqila too good, to be true : omen : though so at a vewe yet all I tolde you is true, I vpholde you, now cease to aske why? for I can not lye : herein is shewed by way of dialogue, the wonderful maners of the people of Mauqsun, with other talke not friuolous.

a_o ingrate_a mariner_n which_o climb_v up_o to_o the_o top_n of_o a_o ship_n slip_v sudden_o down_o when_o if_o god_n have_v not_o guide_v he_o be_v as_o like_a to_o have_v fall_v into_o the_o sea_n

afterward_o when_o he_o think_v himself_o in_o no_o danger_n a_o sudden_a blast_n of_o wind_n do_v blow_v he_o out_o of_o the_o ship_n into_o the_o sea_n and_o then_o neither_o his_o nose_n his_o hand_n nor_o his_o leg_n can_v save_v he_o and_o thus_o god_n do_v suffer_v this_o wretch_n to_o perish_v that_o do_v yield_v that_o to_o his_o nose_n iestinglye_o that_o he_o shall_v attribute_v to_o

deliver_v out_o of_o such_o desperate_a danger_n for_o without_o his_o power_n and_o providence_n we_o can_v neither_o incur_v the_o same_o nor_o escape_v the_o same_o siuqila_n you_o say_v most_o true_a yet_o there_o be_v not_o one_o amongst_o a_o hundred_o i_o have_v almost_o say_v a_o thousand_o when_o they_o do_v escape_v great_a peril_n most_o wonderful_o and_o contrary_a to_o man_n expectation_n that_o do_v then_o fall_v down_o humble_o upon_o their_o knee_n and_o give_v god_n most_o humble_a and_o hearty_a thanks_o for_o preserve_v they_o from_o that_o peril_n and_o danger_n
