not_o speak_v by_o way_n of_o boast_v in_o himself_o but_o of_o consolation_n to_o his_o disciple_n timothy_n 2._o for_o when_o we_o consider_v what_o a_o heavy_a charge_n he_o have_v lay_v upon_o

we_o now_o see_v when_o it_o be_v too_o late_o have_v almost_o utter_o ruin_v this_o once_o flourish_a church_n but_o as_o for_o this_o reverend_a bishop_n in_o particular_a there_o be_v never_o any_o
