all_o creature_n to_o the_o service_n of_o man_n and_o man_n only_o to_o the_o service_n of_o god_n let_v we_o conclude_v man_n to_o be_v the_o most_o honourable_a creature_n and_o by_o due_a desert_n of_o commendation_n to_o be_v by_o many_o degree_n set_v above_o they_o all_o thus_o have_v i_o show_v you_o my_o opinion_n how_o man_n may_v just_o receive_v his_o title_n of_o dignity_n or_o
