place_n of_o stop_n and_o turn_v where_o you_o shall_v turn_v your_o horse_n first_o upon_o a_o soft_a pace_n in_o somewhat_o narrow_a compass_n than_o you_o do_v before_o and_o have_v so_o give_v

by_o take_v less_o room_n than_o when_o i_o give_v my_o horse_n two_o turn_n i_o pray_v you_o teach_v i_o more_o plain_o for_o i_o do_v not_o understand_v your_o meaning_n therein_o clifford_n i_o mean_v by_o take_v less_o room_n that_o you_o shall_v ride_v somewhat_o within_o the_o circle_n of_o your_o former_a ring_n &_o that_o you_o shall_v make_v your_o horse_n turn_v in_o less_o compass_n

mean_v by_o turn_v your_o horse_n somewhat_o large_a that_o you_o shall_v give_v he_o so_o much_o compass_v in_o his_o turn_n as_o the_o largeness_n of_o a_o cart_n or_o waggon_n wheel_n be_v in_o
