afraid_a to_o let_v thy_o light_a shine_n before_o man_n since_o all_o manner_n of_o goodworks_a that_o happen_v to_o be_v see_v of_o man_n be_v not_o therefore_o unpleasing_a to_o god_n but_o only_o

propose_v it_o for_o a_o pattern_n to_o his_o follower_n and_o where_o can_v even_o royal_a dust_n and_o ash_n lay_v themselves_o low_a enough_o in_o a_o office_n of_o devotion_n to_o he_o in_o the_o

such_o as_o good_a counsel_n with_o assistance_n towards_o their_o settlement_n to_o make_v they_o some_o way_n useful_a to_o their_o country_n or_o at_o lest_o no_o long_o burden_n of_o the_o earth_n
