the_o society_n of_o jesuite_n in_o the_o first_o year_n of_o my_o admission_n thereunto_o but_o this_o other_o year_n when_o by_o chance_n i_o meet_v with_o our_o japan-letter_n and_o there_o among_o

all_o this_o our_o spiritual_a course_n of_o life_n shall_v not_o prove_v divine_a but_o human_a only_a and_o pharisaical_a forasmuch_o as_o very_a idolator_n and_o heathen_n want_v the_o light_n of_o
