enemy_n contend_v but_o only_o ever_o after_o while_o we_o live_v be_v sure_a of_o mortal_a war_n and_o enmity_n sorrow_n and_o grief_n and_o all_o extremity_n my_o counsel_n therefore_o be_v that_o

end_n when_o hector_n thus_o his_o mind_n declare_v have_v and_o with_o most_o grave_a conclusion_n so_o do_v close_o the_o wise_a discourse_n which_o be_v to_o they_o have_v make_v his_o second_o brother_n paris_n therewith_o rise_v and_o to_o the_o king_n along_o discourse_n do_v make_v which_o in_o these_o word_n with_o courage_n bold_a he_o speak_v and_o say_v my_o lord_n if_o it_o like_v your_o grace_n to_o hear_v and_o give_v i_o leave_v to_o speak_v then_o must_v i_o say_v and_o will_v it_o prove_v you_o have_v no_o cause_n to_o fear_v nor_o will_v i_o wish_v you_o long_o the_o
