to_o the_o poor_a workman_n or_o out_o of_o pride_n and_o delight_n in_o the_o pomp_n and_o splendour_n of_o the_o world_n and_o if_o we_o deal_v faithful_o with_o our_o own_o heart_n we_o shall_v soon_o find_v that_o the_o pity_n we_o pretend_v to_o the_o workman_n be_v only_o a_o cloak_n to_o cover_v the_o secret_a satisfaction_n we_o take_v in_o conform_v to_o the_o world_n and_o this_o be_v
