latin_a be_v you_o not_o advise_v how_o many_o thing_n be_v write_v in_o greek_a and_o latin_a of_o the_o beginning_n of_o the_o world_n though_o there_o be_v neither_o greek_a nor_o latin_a 2000_o

will_v follow_v so_o needless_a a_o cause_n in_o compare_v his_o time_n with_o the_o time_n of_o the_o latin_a tongue_n wherein_o you_o write_v of_o he_o you_o may_v have_v do_v well_o to_o prove_v that_o the_o moonke_v say_v how_o brute_n receive_v his_o answer_n of_o diana_n and_o ask_v her_o counsel_n in_o latin_a speech_n which_o because_o you_o have_v not_o prove_v your_o horatius_n and_o

and_o suppose_v yourself_o subtle_a enough_o when_o you_o have_v bring_v your_o invention_n to_o a_o disiunctive_a proposition_n with_o much_o effect_n i_o promise_v you_o when_o it_o tend_v

may_v be_v true_a so_o monk_n may_v dream_v dream_n and_o yet_o geoffrey_n monmouth_n write_v a_o truth_n why_o shall_v not_o a_o moonke_v be_v as_o credible_a as_o a_o paedanty_n or_o a_o solitary_a

so_o by_o the_o moonke_n word_n thus_o it_o can_v be_v prove_v evident_o that_o the_o history_n of_o brute_n be_v a_o feign_a and_o poetical_a narration_n unless_o it_o be_v first_o prove_v that_o there_o be_v no_o more_o intelligence_n and_o register_n in_o the_o life_n of_o geffrey_n then_o of_o george_n and_o that_o geffrey_n have_v no_o author_n for_o his_o defence_n because_o george_n

the_o chaste_a body_n the_o painful_a body_n but_o labour_n and_o continency_n in_o man_n body_n breed_v a_o kind_n of_o divinity_n in_o man_n i_o pray_v when_o you_o in_o your_o psalm_n as_o they_o
