melt_v by_o the_o beam_n of_o the_o sun_n then_o by_o the_o scorch_a of_o the_o fire_n you_o will_v say_v humble_v for_o what_o there_o be_v three_o thing_n that_o we_o have_v cause_n to_o be_v

kindly_a manner_n we_o may_v have_v have_v a_o furious_a rebuke_n second_o be_v humble_v for_o all_o our_o murmur_a and_o repine_v and_o discontent_n o_o we_o do_v not_o think_v that_o the_o war_n will_v have_v hold_v so_o long_o and_o o_o what_o taxation_n be_v upon_o we_o and_o all_o our_o estate_n rend_v away_o and_o how_o many_o be_v there_o that_o have_v rather_o that_o all_o the_o good_a

on_o the_o other_o side_n as_o it_o be_v say_v concern_v the_o pope_n and_o the_o general_a counsel_n the_o pope_n prevail_v notwithstanding_o the_o general_a council_n though_o that_o be_v above_o

on_o the_o other_o side_n they_o have_v keep_v to_o their_o principle_n because_o their_o principle_n be_v suitable_a to_o the_o flesh_n but_o there_o be_v many_o on_o this_o side_n that_o have_v
