thou_o neither_o be_v the_o first_o nor_o shall_v be_v last_o which_o have_v a_o voyage_n in_o this_o manner_n make_v and_o be_v on_o quicksand_n by_o misfortune_n cast_v for_o it_o be_v uncertain_a

therefore_o you_o rural_a and_o champ_v estriall_a man_n which_o live_v in_o village_n and_o country_n town_n do_v not_o deride_v and_o mock_v the_o citizen_n as_o if_o there_o be_v no_o cuckold_n

stain_n and_o that_o the_o city_n be_v alone_o pollute_v for_o many_o citizen_n do_v never_o set_v their_o wife_n in_o shop_n more_o customer_n to_o get_v though_o diverse_a wealthy_a farmer_n have_v be_v know_v to_o keep_v their_o landlord_n child_n as_o their_o own_o the_o thrifty_a citizen_n with_o life_n by_o trade_n have_v in_o a_o room_n or_o two_o his_o wife_n confine_v so_o that_o the_o

that_o by_o any_o mean_n i_o can_v see_v how_o every_o tradesman_n shall_v a_o cuckold_n be_v whereas_o the_o country_n forest_n wood_n and_o field_n grove_n thicket_n haiecocke_n grass_n and_o
