have_v be_v take_v in_o the_o fault_n of_o dissent_v may_v be_v in_o great_a pain_n they_o may_v have_v a_o ache_a mind_n which_o be_v worse_o and_o far_o more_o painful_a than_o a_o ache_a limb._n

most_o certain_a it_o be_v that_o every_o man_n may_v be_v take_v in_o a_o fault_n and_o it_o be_v as_o certain_a that_o every_o man_n be_v not_o fit_a to_o tell_v other_o of_o their_o fault_n he_o
