he_o be_v in_o sweden_n in_o a_o victualling-house_n so_o ill_o appoint_v that_o he_o look_v rather_o like_o a_o beggar_n than_o a_o gentleman_n son_n of_o good_a birth_n and_o to_o ascend_v back_o

and_o i_o can_v assure_v you_o thus_o much_o that_o he_o can_v not_o speak_v congruous_a latin_n i_o have_v see_v a_o note_n write_v with_o his_o own_o hand_n to_o a_o bishop_n that_o have_v be_v

whereunto_o the_o queen_n applaud_v because_o bourdelot_n have_v say_v it_o it_o be_v sure_o a_o matter_n of_o astonishment_n why_o a_o princess_n so_o well_o furnish_v with_o light_n of_o knowledge_n suffer_v herself_o so_o strong_o to_o be_v blind_v by_o this_o infamous_a fellow_n which_o even_o the_o mean_a of_o the_o commons_o in_o sweden_n have_v observe_v they_o persuade_v themselves_o that_o
