remember_v any_o such_o passage_n and_o as_o for_o mr._n bushnel_n uncharitable_a conjecture_n that_o i_o do_v store_n up_o a_o good_a turn_n for_o he_o by_o reason_n of_o those_o word_n of_o cottle_n

of_o it_o i_o have_v tell_v thou_o already_o that_o i_o believe_v that_o many_o a_o one_o which_o have_v appear_v before_o they_o and_o have_v be_v swear_v against_o i_o have_v never_o so_o do_v have_v it_o not_o be_v for_o their_o invitation_n and_o countenance_n which_o as_o before_o so_o at_o this_o time_n appear_v most_o visible_a answ_n what_o have_v before_o be_v produce_v by_o mr._n
