to_o persuade_v he_o from_o die_v a_o suppose_a martyr_n the_o pope_n may_v well_o boast_v of_o his_o fidelity_n for_o he_o seal_v his_o death_n with_o his_o precious_a blood_n and_o choke_v his_o

and_o reveal_v a_o little_a to_o the_o lord_n yet_o he_o make_v you_o a_o sufficient_a recompense_n at_o the_o hour_n of_o death_n with_o what_o fire_n or_o with_o what_o liquor_n you_o temper_v this_o steel_n so_o hardly_o i_o know_v not_o but_o it_o be_v most_o certain_a the_o devil_n himself_o can_v have_v do_v no_o more_o than_o he_o do_v at_o his_o die_a hour_n for_o which_o in_o rome_n
