a_o forthnights_n exercise_n which_o in_o my_o opinion_n be_v the_o best_a way_n to_o frame_v and_o train_n up_z preacher_n to_o handle_v the_o word_n of_o god_n as_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v handle_v that_o have_v be_v practise_v for_o we_o see_v orator_n have_v their_o declamation_n lawyer_n have_v their_o moots_n logician_n their_o sophem_n and_o every_o practice_n of_o science_n have_v a_o
