ah_o laud_n that_o we_o may_v see_v that_o day_n let_v we_o in_o the_o mean_n time_n at_o home_n and_o eke_o abroad_o unclothe_v and_o unbrace_v ourselves_o before_o the_o laud_n on_o all_o occasion_n that_o time_n shall_v yield_v that_o our_o dear_a sister_n dream_n may_v be_v fulfil_v why_o do_v not_o jacob_n dream_v and_o so_o it_o be_v and_o pharaoh_n dream_v and_o so_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v then_o dorcas_n cry_v reach_v i_o the_o cheese_n up_o hither_o sister_n quoth_v she_o give_v this_o unto_o our_o brother_n it_o be_v very_o good_a if_o well_o wash_v down_o with_o sack_n his_o waste_a spirit_n much_o refresh_a lack_n recruit_v thus_o all_o this_o good_a cheer_n quoth_v he_o be_v but_o a_o emblem_n of_o mortality_n the_o ox_n be_v strong_a and_o glory_n in_o his_o strength_n yet_o he_o the_o butcher_n knock_v down_o and_o at_o length_n we_o eat_v he_o up_o a_o turkey_n very_a gay_a like_o worldly_a people_n clad_v in_o fine_a array_n yet_o on_o the_o spit_v it_o look_v most_o piteous_a and_o we_o devour_v it_o as_o the_o worm_n eat_v we_o then_o full_a of_o sauce_n and_o zeal_n up_o step_v elnathan_n this_o be_v his_o name_n now_o once_o he_o have_v another_o until_o the_o duckingpond_n make_v he_o a_o brother_n a_o deacon_n and_o a_o buffete_a of_o satan_n true_o brother_n quoth_v he_o i_o know_v a_o brother_n dear_a will_v glad_o pick_v the_o bone_n of_o what_o be_v leave_v here_o nay_o he_o will_v glad_o pick_v your_o pocket_n too_o of_o a_o small_a two_o penny_n or_o a_o groat_n or_o so_o the_o sorry_a remnant_n of_o a_o break_a shilling_n therefore_o i_o pray_v you_o friend_n be_v not_o unwilling_a as_o for_o myself_o it_o be_v more_o than_o i_o do_v need_n to_o be_v charitable_a both_o in_o word_n and_o deed_n for_o as_o to_o we_o the_o holy_a scripture_n say_v the_o deacon_n must_v receive_v but_o the_o layman_n pay_v why_o heathen_a folk_n that_o do_v in_o tavern_n stray_v will_v never_o let_v their_o friend_n the_o reckon_a pay_n and_o therefore_o pour_v your_o charity_n into_o the_o basin_n brethren_n and_o sister_n eke_o your_o coat_n have_v lace_n on_o why_o brethren_n in_o the_o lord_n what_o need_v you_o care_v for_o sixpence_n we_o will_v next_o morn_n enhance_v our_o ware_n your_o sixpence_n come_v again_o nay_o there_o come_v more_o thus_o charity_n be_v the_o encreaser_n of_o your_o store_n true_o well_o speak_v then_o cry_v the_o master-feaster_n since_o you_o say_v so_o i_o free_o give_v my_o tester_n but_o for_o the_o woman_n they_o give_v more_o liberal_o for_o they_o be_v sure_a to_o who_o they_o give_v and_o why_o himself_o then_o do_v elnathan_n blink_v for_o he_o know_v well_o what_o he_o may_v give_v and_o what_o he_o may_v conceal_v but_o now_o the_o parson_n can_v no_o long_o stay_v it_o be_v time_n to_o kiss_v he_o cry_v and_o so_o away_o at_o which_o the_o sister_n once_o the_o alarm_n take_v make_v such_o a_o din_n as_o will_v have_v serve_v to_o waken_v a_o snore_a brother_n when_o he_o sleep_v at_o church_n with_o bag_n and_o baggage_n than_o they_o begin_v to_o march_v and_o tickle_v with_o the_o thought_n of_o their_o delight_n one_o sister_n to_o the_o other_o bid_v good_a
