of_o london_n triacle_n which_o after_o i_o have_v show_v unto_o diverse_a of_o judgement_n and_o skill_n in_o such_o matter_n &_o find_v that_o they_o judge_v the_o book_n well_o worthy_a the_o set_n out_o especial_o in_o this_o infectious_a season_n i_o resolve_v thereupon_o to_o publish_v it_o to_o the_o world_n that_o thereby_o the_o fruit_n and_o benefit_n thereof_o may_v the_o better_o be_v
