destiny_n of_o thing_n in_o this_o world_n for_o menasta_n do_v propound_v the_o very_a same_o way_n unto_o amestris_n which_o artaban_n have_v propound_v unto_o i_o to_o wit_n that_o she_o shall_v

that_o when_o he_o plain_o see_v that_o his_o mutability_n have_v put_v amestris_n into_o a_o capacity_n of_o prefer_v another_o before_o he_o than_o one_o of_o these_o two_o thing_n will_v come_v to_o pass_v that_o be_v he_o will_v either_o forsake_v anatisa_n and_o return_v unto_o amestris_n or_o else_o at_o the_o least_o he_o will_v be_v sufficient_o torment_v in_o his_o heart_n moreover_o who_o know_v but_o that_o by_o permit_v yourself_o to_o be_v love_v you_o may_v come_v to_o cease_v love_v he_o love_n for_o aught_o i_o understand_v say_v he_o be_v never_o cure_v by_o contrary_a

in_o our_o heart_n than_o that_o sympathy_n be_v which_o make_v we_o love_n one_o person_n more_o than_o another_o so_o that_o as_o all_o these_o inclination_n do_v subsist_v as_o long_o as_o we_o
