according_a to_o the_o diversity_n of_o place_n i_o think_v good_a to_o speak_v of_o those_o also_o that_o be_v inherent_a in_o the_o brain_n for_o those_o disease_n that_o be_v in_o the_o high_a

wherefore_o they_o make_v vow_n to_o they_o and_o set_v up_o table_n for_o their_o deliverance_n hence_o our_o age_n have_v distinguish_v the_o epilepsy_n into_o many_o sort_n and_o one_o they_o
