as_o it_o shall_v be_v if_o death_n be_v yvell_n the_o which_o necessary_o man_n be_v constrain_v to_o suffer_v yvell_n therefore_o it_o seem_v true_a that_o death_n consider_v alone_o by_o hit_v

for_o their_o trespace_n yet_o it_o be_v truth_n that_o the_o tone_n die_v well_o in_o a_o good_a death_n the_o tother_o die_v naught_o in_o a_o yvel_a death_n not_o for_o the_o dethe_v by_o itself_o
