axiochus_n thy_o talk_n be_v very_o foolish_a for_o reason_v thus_o without_o reason_n and_o seek_v to_o make_v some_o sense_n of_o senseless_a word_n thou_o both_o do_v and_o say_v clean_o contrary_a to_o thyself_o not_o mark_v how_o at_o one_o time_n thou_o do_v both_o complain_n for_o the_o lack_n of_o sense_n which_o thou_o shall_v have_v and_o also_o be_v great_o vex_v for_o the_o rot_v of_o

this_o state_n of_o mortality_n thou_o shall_v no_o more_o be_v afflict_v for_o thou_o shall_v not_o be_v in_o such_o case_n as_o that_o any_o evil_a can_v touch_v thou_o wherefore_o shake_v off_o
