little_a unacquainted_a with_o the_o law_n of_o england_n for_o i_o have_v discover_v his_o ignorance_n in_o other_o thing_n that_o be_v less_o pardonable_a yet_o he_o be_v so_o uneasy_a at_o this_o

all_o the_o rest_n of_o his_o article_n be_v a_o sequel_n of_o such_o impertinence_n that_o i_o grow_v weary_a to_o examine_v they_o as_o well_o as_o the_o character_n that_o he_o give_v his_o

be_v like_o himself_o this_o it_o seem_v go_v to_o his_o heart_n for_o though_o i_o have_v destroy_v his_o credit_n as_o a_o writer_n of_o history_n yet_o there_o be_v some_o comfort_n leave_v if_o he_o may_v be_v still_o consider_v at_o least_o a_o good_a author_n of_o romance_n lxii_o he_o think_v it_o be_v the_o chief_a of_o all_o the_o quality_n necessary_a for_o the_o write_n of_o history_n 432._o to_o be_v able_a to_o describe_v the_o intriques_n of_o great_a man_n in_o the_o matter_n of_o amour_n and_o it_o he_o have_v not_o that_o as_o he_o reproach_n i_o for_o deny_v it_o to_o he_o

and_o then_o he_o justify_v himself_o with_o a_o quotation_n out_o of_o florimond_n i_o will_v not_o dispute_v much_o with_o he_o whether_o the_o quality_n of_o set_v forth_o amour_n be_v the_o

to_o be_v find_v out_o unless_o one_o have_v live_v in_o the_o time_n for_o those_o be_v matter_n in_o which_o as_o it_o be_v easy_a to_o slander_v so_o the_o only_a person_n who_o know_v those_o

the_o other_o quality_n allow_v he_o but_o now_o i_o be_o worse-natured_n and_o will_v allow_v none_o of_o they_o to_o he_o and_o i_o as_o little_o believe_v what_o he_o say_v of_o the_o praise_n that_o some_o give_v his_o work_n on_o that_o account_n as_o i_o do_v his_o other_o quotation_n after_o this_o he_o call_v i_o the_o rashe_v of_o all_o man_n 433._o this_o from_o any_o man_n but_o
