be_v the_o mischief_n excessive_a drink_n and_o abuse_n in_o this_o kind_n be_v occasion_n to_o many_o man_n as_o have_v be_v show_v of_o their_o great_a grief_n and_o melancholy_n and_o the_o

the_o good_a and_o moderate_a use_n of_o drink_v and_o so_o we_o may_v enjoy_v the_o same_o free_o and_o be_v as_o good_a fellow_n as_o merry_a and_o as_o happy_a as_o may_v be_v of_o which_o more_o
