in_o his_o sight_n let_v thy_o wife_n find_v the_o like_a from_o thou_o will_v thou_o have_v he_o do_v all_o thy_o work_n in_o thou_o and_o for_o the_o show_v thou_o the_o like_a grace_n to_o she_o

of_o all_o thy_o trouble_n do_v thou_o also_o as_o far_o as_o lie_v in_o thou_o seek_v rest_n for_o she_o from_o all_o she_o let_v no_o enemy_n of_o she_o encounter_v she_o alone_o but_o know_v he_o
