he_o give_v a_o great_a alm_n i._o no_o doubt_v he_o do_v to_o the_o country_n but_o not_o to_o the_o labourer_n unless_o they_o take_v their_o hire_n and_o work_v not_o and_o yet_o even_o then_o be_v

almsman_n but_o a_o robber_n and_o stand_v answerable_a to_o his_o superior_n under_o god_n n._n if_o all_o the_o people_n then_o give_v tithe_n do_v they_o give_v alm_n to_o themselves_o i._o they_o
