old_a as_o if_o it_o be_v but_o just_a make_v therefore_o to_o conclude_v this_o second_o part_n we_o must_v acknowledge_v that_o the_o chocolate_a be_v not_o so_o cold_a as_o the_o cacao_n nor_o be_v

the_o contrary_a for_o we_o see_v nothing_o fatten_v more_o than_o chocolate_a whereof_o i_o will_v give_v the_o reason_n hereafter_o and_o so_o much_o for_o this_o second_o part._n proceed_v we_o now_o to_o the_o three_o the_o three_o part_n in_o the_o first_o part_n have_v treat_v of_o chocolate_a and_o give_v you_o the_o definition_n thereof_o as_o likewise_o the_o quality_n of_o the_o

that_o in_o pound_v the_o cacao_n you_o mix_v the_o achiote_n therewith_o to_o the_o end_n that_o you_o may_v give_v it_o a_o better_a colour_n and_o the_o tincture_n may_v remain_v and_o be_v the_o
