the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o injury_n proceed_v from_o our_o misconstr_v of_o thing_n wherefore_o simplicity_n and_o a_o favourable_a interpretation_n of_o all_o thing_n be_v very_o necessary_a plead_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o absent_a party_n against_o thyself_o and_o ever_o suspect_v that_o passion_n which_o make_v thou_o still_o apt_a to_o believe_v what_o thou_o be_v afraid_a to_o hear_v and_o which_o put_v thou_o into_o anger_n before_o thou_o have_v time_n to_o judge_v of_o the_o matter_n we_o must_v always_o take_v time_n for_o truth_n be_v seldom_o otherwise_o discover_v if_o thou_o be_v to_o judge_v some_o small_a mony-busines_n thou_o will_v determine_v nothing_o in_o the_o case_n without_o witness_n and_o yet_o thou_o have_v no_o scruple_n to_o condemn_v thy_o friend_n without_o hear_v he_o speak_v it_o be_v not_o the_o part_n of_o a_o wise_a man_n present_o to_o give_v credit_n to_o every_o report_n many_o tell_v untruth_n with_o intention_n to_o deceive_v many_o
