even_o from_o each_o other_o we_o keep_v unrevealed_a and_o with_o much_o pain_n our_o suffering_n conceal_v but_o then_o at_o last_o our_o love_n so_o fierce_a become_v that_o we_o no_o long_o can_v

together_o come_v and_o with_o discourse_n blow_v up_o the_o please_a flame_n what_o cunning_a plot_n we_o have_v use_v what_o sly_a deceit_n to_o cheat_v our_o spy_n and_o undiscovered_a meet_v whole_a night_n in_o whisper_v murmur_n &_o soft_a tread_n we_o have_v spend_v while_o drowsy_a watch_n snore_v in_o bed._n and_o if_o we_o fail_v of_o such_o a_o enterprise_n too_o strict_o guard_v
