unless_o you_o confident_o resolve_v i_o what_o to_o trust_v unto_o i_o will_v not_o live_v to_o write_v you_o another_o letter_n you_o not_o to_o live_v without_o you_o to_o her_o best_a choice_n

on_o all_o side_n let_v we_o therefore_o continue_v resolute_a and_o if_o by_o some_o small_a absence_n we_o sometime_o slack_v the_o burn_n of_o these_o fire_n shall_v it_o not_o resemble_v a_o

in_o the_o violent_a race_n of_o their_o turbulent_a innovation_n and_o insolent_a wilfulness_n not_o take_v warning_n by_o precedent_a example_n nor_o terrify_v with_o the_o ever-impending_a reward_n of_o treason_n which_o be_v the_o overthrow_n both_o of_o themselves_o and_o family_n i_o answer_v that_o true_o i_o can_v yield_v you_o no_o reason_n because_o all_o they_o pretend_v be_v not_o
