from_o those_o premise_n i_o draw_v this_o conclusion_n viz._n that_o he_o who_o think_v sober_o of_o himself_o and_o not_o more_o high_o than_o he_o ought_v to_o think_v must_v needs_o be_v a_o humble_a person_n and_o that_o the_o formalis_fw-la ratio_fw-la or_o essence_n of_o humility_n do_v consist_v in_o know_v and_o own_v ourselves_o to_o be_v as_o mean_v vile_a and_o unworthy_a as_o
