not_o be_v man_n enough_o leave_v to_o get_v in_o harvest_n as_o he_o predict_v in_o his_o judgement_n of_o the_o year_n 1699._o therefore_o i_o aver_v all_o that_o he_o speak_v of_o that_o year_n and_o the_o next_o to_o be_v absolute_o false_a nonsensical_a and_o erroneous_a in_o the_o next_o year_n with_o which_o he_o conclude_v his_o book_n he_o say_v that_o rome_n be_v now_o destroy_v and_o

the_o effect_n of_o this_o conjunction_n be_v like_a to_o be_v most_o powerful_a and_o for_o the_o time_n of_o the_o future_a effect_n it_o be_v most_o like_a to_o be_v when_o the_o sun_n or_o mars_n
