goodness_n and_o charity_n itself_o always_o shower_v down_o bounty_n and_o mercy_n on_o the_o whole_a creation_n i_o may_v show_v too_o that_o nothing_o be_v so_o amiable_a as_o this_o virtue_n in_o the_o opinion_n of_o the_o world_n that_o nothing_o procure_v such_o love_n and_o esteem_v and_o how_o it_o perfume_v man_n memory_n like_o precious_a ointment_n when_o they_o be_v dead_a and_o go_v
