my_o constancy_n and_o virtue_n both_o which_o i_o find_v conquer_v in_o i_o to_o my_o eternal_a confusion_n and_o shame_n but_o my_o best_a hope_n be_v that_o i_o shall_v short_o be_v requite_v as_o

of_o friendship_n he_o think_v no_o other_o penance_n sufficient_a for_o he_o but_o only_a death_n which_o he_o willing_o expect_v every_o hour_n and_o with_o all_o his_o heart_n will_v glad_o bid_v

wound_v with_o affection_n to_o sophronia_n but_o yet_o in_o a_o well-governed_n and_o temperate_a manner_n so_o without_o any_o long_a delay_n he_o conclude_v with_o himself_o that_o the_o life_n of_o his_o friend_n ought_v to_o be_v account_v much_o more_o dear_a than_o any_o love_n he_o can_v bear_v unto_o sophronia_n and_o in_o this_o resolution_n the_o tear_n of_o titus_n force_v his_o

to_o they_o of_o much_o great_a necessity_n if_o thou_o do_v earnest_o love_v fair_a sophronia_n who_o be_v betroth_v and_o affiance_v to_o i_o it_o be_v no_o matter_n for_o i_o to_o marvel_v at_o
