prove_v that_o there_o be_v in_o those_o brave_a romance_n which_o be_v after_o the_o nature_n of_o epique_a poem_n instruction_n fit_a for_o all_o state_n that_o vice_n may_v be_v abhor_v and_o

they_o forget_v troublesome_a truth_n they_o publish_v lie_n that_o do_v oblige_v and_o common_o discover_v other_o man_n imperfection_n to_o comply_v with_o some_o malicious_a mind_n and_o sacrifice_v to_o envy_v but_o the_o composer_n of_o epique_a poem_n and_o romance_n be_v exempt_a from_o that_o black_a malice_n and_o most_o base_a complacency_n they_o describe_v thing_n not_o as_o they_o be_v but_o as_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v it_o be_v without_o interest_n that_o they_o condemn_v foul_a deed_n and_o treason_n and_o that_o they_o honour_v justice_n wisdom_n and_o valour_n they_o make_v the_o guilty_a blush_n in_o their_o conscience_n as_o well_o as_o true_a historian_n and_o can_v tell_v better_o how_o than_o they_o to_o animate_v man_n heart_n in_o the_o defence_n of_o right_n and_o reason_n even_o to_o the_o last_o breath_n of_o life_n beside_o that_o their_o design_n be_v but_o to_o be_v acceptable_a and_o stir_v up_o divers_a passion_n in_o the_o reader_n they_o instruct_v they_o nevertheless_o and_o edify_v they_o so_o as_o after_o read_v they_o they_o grow_v much_o great_a friend_n to_o virtue_n than_o before_o as_o for_o myself_o who_o can_v brag_v of_o those_o persuasive_a move_a gift_n i_o boast_v at_o jest_n to_o come_v thus_o near_o a_o true_a history_n that_o i_o observe_v the_o justness_n of_o time_n that_o i_o describe_v exact_o the_o
