though_o i_o have_v hitherto_o gain_v nothing_o by_o this_o rupture_n with_o holland_n but_o that_o fortune_n have_v favour_v they_o as_o well_o as_o i_o in_o small_a rencounter_n yet_o i_o be_o

that_o the_o good_a thing_n of_o this_o world_n be_v make_v for_o those_o who_o can_v catch_v they_o and_o if_o there_o be_v any_o such_o thing_n as_o a_o deity_n it_o see_v not_o as_o man_n see_v
