to_o do_v it_o 2_o till_o our_o blood_n be_v cool_a and_o passion_n calm_v 2_o it_o be_v a_o season_n for_o reproof_n when_o the_o offender_n be_v in_o a_o capacity_n to_o receive_v the_o impression_n thereof_o or_o to_o be_v wrought_v upon_o thereby_o as_o 1_o when_o he_o be_v himself_o and_o not_o distemper_v either_o with_o drink_n abigail_n defer_v to_o reprove_v nabal_n 18.19_o 1_o sam._n

reprove_v we_o lest_o it_o shall_v savour_v of_o disdain_n in_o we_o to_o bear_v reproof_n or_o of_o malice_n to_o revenge_v it_o by_z returning_z quid_fw-la pro_fw-la quo_fw-la like_v for_o like_a
