thereof_o that_o as_o many_o as_o shall_v look_v into_o his_o desert_n they_o can_v not_o but_o call_v rome_n unthankful_a which_o like_v rather_o that_o the_o african_a preserver_n of_o the_o city_n shall_v go_v out_o of_o rome_n then_o that_o they_o will_v repress_v the_o fury_n and_o insolency_n of_o a_o few_o and_o for_o my_o own_o opinion_n i_o can_v not_o think_v well_o of_o that_o city_n that_o so_o unthankful_o have_v suffer_v so_o worthy_a and_o innocent_a a_o person_n to_o be_v injure_v and_o so_o will_v i_o also_o have_v think_v it_o more_o blame_v worthy_a if_o the_o city_n

do_v thereby_o show_v how_o much_o they_o do_v love_n and_o honour_v the_o name_n of_o the_o scipio_n and_o therefore_o if_o we_o shall_v judge_v the_o citizen_n heart_n and_o good_a will_n by_o those_o thing_n man_n will_v rather_o condemn_v they_o for_o coward_n to_o have_v suffer_v such_o outrage_n then_o unthankful_a forforget_v of_o his_o benefit_n for_o there_o be_v very_o few_o that_o consent_v to_o so_o wicked_a a_o deed_n and_o all_o of_o they_o in_o manner_n be_v very_o sorry_a for_o it_o howbeit_o scipio_n that_o be_v a_o man_n of_o a_o great_a mind_n not_o much_o regard_v the_o malice_n of_o his_o enemy_n be_v content_v rather_o to_o leave_v the_o city_n then_o by_o civil_a war_n to_o destroy_v it_o for_o he_o will_v not_o come_v against_o his_o country_n with_o

how_o careful_a he_o be_v to_o preserve_v the_o liberty_n of_o rome_n because_o when_o he_o be_v in_o spain_n he_o refuse_v the_o title_n and_o name_n of_o king_n which_o be_v offer_v he_o and_o for_o that_o he_o be_v marvellous_a angry_a with_o the_o people_n of_o rome_n because_o they_o will_v have_v make_v he_o perpetual_a consul_n and_o dictator_n and_o consider_v also_o that_o he_o command_v
