be_v find_v in_o tulliola_n daughter_n of_o cicero_n her_o sepulchre_n which_o continue_v burn_v fifteen_o hundred_o year_n these_o and_o many_o other_o shadow_n and_o trace_n of_o eternity_n god_n

of_o the_o creature_n we_o may_v see_v the_o power_n of_o the_o creator_n and_o out_o of_o these_o particular_a work_n of_o his_o we_o may_v understand_v that_o that_o god_n which_o have_v endow_v

of_o man_n in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v since_o he_o have_v engrave_v the_o knowledge_n hereof_o as_o with_o a_o iron_n pen_n in_o the_o conscience_n of_o the_o heathen_a since_o he_o have_v give_v

up_o our_o deep_a thought_n our_o refine_a affection_n how_o shall_v this_o cause_v we_o to_o reflect_v upon_o our_o soul_n to_o ponder_v our_o way_n and_o with_o a_o undazeled_a and_o undesemble_a
