this_o supposition_n it_o be_v unreasonable_a to_o have_v kill_v he_o for_o the_o learned_a mr._n rymer_n have_v well_o observe_v that_o in_o all_o punishment_n we_o be_v to_o regulate_v ourselves_o

be_v plagiaries_n for_o build_v their_o tragedy_n on_o know_a fable_n thus_o augustus_n caesar_n write_v a_o ajax_n which_o be_v not_o the_o less_o his_o own_o because_o euripides_n have_v write_v a_o
