just_o be_v blame_v now_o that_o which_o be_v not_o evil_a be_v good_a for_o that_o which_o be_v vicious_a be_v evil_a also_o and_o so_o opposite_o whatsoever_o be_v without_o vice_n may_v be_v repute_v good_a &_o therefore_o good_a be_v contrary_a to_o evil_n and_o evil_a to_o good_a in_o brief_a where_o there_o be_v no_o will_n to_o hurt_v that_o may_v be_v call_v innocence_n and_o he_o

no_o thing_n more_o contrary_a than_o life_n and_o death_n if_o life_n they_o be_v repute_v a_o special_a good_a must_v not_o death_n be_v esteem_v as_o great_a a_o evil_a we_o must_v then_o observe_v what_o life_n &_o death_n be_v life_n be_v the_o enjoy_n of_o breath_n and_o death_n the_o privation_n thereof_o many_o think_v that_o it_o be_v a_o great_a happiness_n to_o breathe_v to_o enjoy_v
