that_o with_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o confidence_n you_o may_v report_v both_o in_o public_a to_o the_o house_n and_o in_o private_a to_o my_o friend_n that_o i_o be_o now_o at_o oxford_n nor_o

without_o vanity_n say_v i_o do_v nothing_o to_o the_o dishonour_n of_o my_o own_o as_o this_o absence_n make_v i_o ignorant_a of_o the_o condition_n of_o the_o kingdom_n so_o it_o render_v i_o more_o

the_o thanks_o i_o receive_v from_o you_o it_o be_v not_o therefore_o necessity_n have_v make_v i_o leave_v you_o to_o go_v to_o the_o king_n from_o who_o you_o have_v take_v not_o only_o his_o
