appear_v at_o least_o to_o have_v a_o healthful_a constitution_n he_o have_v good_a flesh_n to_o heal_v his_o spirit_n be_v capable_a of_o medicine_n and_o that_o man_n can_v never_o be_v despair_v of_o who_o have_v a_o disposition_n so_o near_o his_o health_n as_o to_o improve_v all_o physic_n and_o who_o nature_n be_v relieve_v by_o every_o good_a accident_n from_o without_o but_o that_o which_o i_o observe_v be_v that_o this_o be_v not_o only_o a_o good_a disposition_n towards_o repentance_n and_o restitution_n but_o be_v a_o sign_n of_o growth_n in_o grace_n according_a as_o it_o

other_o man_n with_o a_o fair_a character_n and_o such_o as_o need_v not_o to_o be_v reprove_v other_o out_o of_o inconsideration_n sleep_v in_o their_o own_o dark_a room_n and_o until_o the_o
