man_n that_o first_o enter_v friendship_n they_o be_v then_o most_o careful_a to_o do_v duty_n one_o to_o a_o other_o to_o this_o purpose_n i_o take_v it_o that_o may_v be_v apply_v which_o be_v

of_o love_n so_o trne_v repentant_n have_v the_o hatred_n of_o evil_a and_o the_o love_n of_o good_a in_o they_o will_v with_o all_o diligence_n and_o care_n avoid_v the_o evil_a and_o do_v the_o
