with_o two_o hundred_o thousand_o man_n if_o you_o have_v be_v to_o deliver_v i_o out_o of_o the_o power_n of_o the_o king_n of_o assyria_n so_o that_o sir_n you_o shall_v come_v into_o the_o camp_n

that_o by_o restore_v i_o to_o my_o father_n you_o will_v at_o the_o least_o obtain_v some_o of_o my_o esteem_n and_o perhaps_o my_o friendship_n and_o that_o if_o you_o do_v not_o restore_v i_o i_o

not_o move_v i_o to_o forsake_v the_o interest_n of_o my_o love_n but_o sir_n reply_v she_o then_o in_o lieu_n of_o obtain_v my_o love_n you_o will_v find_v my_o extreme_a hate_n who_o know_v madam_n

yet_o i_o have_v rather_o choose_v to_o lose_v they_o both_o then_o be_v deprive_v of_o you_o take_v heed_n sir_n what_o you_o say_v reply_v the_o princess_n for_o in_o restore_v i_o my_o liberty_n you_o will_v only_o want_v the_o sight_n of_o i_o but_o if_o you_o do_v not_o restore_v i_o you_o will_v not_o only_o lose_v my_o esteem_n but_o also_o in_o a_o few_o day_n my_o life_n whereas_o on_o
