son_n of_o parchment_n call_v solicitor_n and_o barrister_n make_v it_o their_o whole_a business_n to_o keep_v the_o shuttlecock_n in_o motion_n and_o when_o one_o hand_n be_v weary_a of_o it_o they_o play_v it_o into_o another_o it_o be_v the_o chief_a part_n of_o their_o religion_n to_o keep_v up_o and_o animate_v the_o difference_n among_o their_o client_n as_o it_o be_v with_o the_o vestal_a virgin_n in_o the_o day_n of_o yore_o to_o maintain_v the_o sacred_a fire_n it_o be_v a_o most_o surprise_v thing_n that_o notwithstanding_o all_o the_o clamour_n squal_v and_o bawl_v there_o be_v in_o the_o court_n yet_o you_o shall_v have_v a_o judge_n now_o and_o then_o take_v as_o comfortable_a a_o nap_n upon_o the_o bench_n as_o if_o he_o be_v at_o church_n and_o every_o honest_a

this_o must_v be_v say_v for_o they_o that_o they_o be_v righteous_a enough_o in_o their_o heart_n but_o the_o devil_n on_o it_o be_v that_o they_o can_v tell_v which_o way_n to_o take_v to_o instruct_v themselves_o in_o the_o merit_n of_o the_o cause_n the_o contend_v party_n be_v suspect_v by_o they_o the_o solicitor_n embroil_v they_o the_o counsellor_n deafen_v they_o the_o attorney_n importune_v they_o and_o be_v it_o not_o a_o sad_a thing_n the_o shee-sollicitor_n distract_v they_o well!_o let_v what_o will_v happen_v on_o it_o give_v i_o for_o my_o money_n the_o female_a
