the_o inclination_n which_o a_o man_n have_v to_o a_o harlot_n and_o to_o the_o pleasure_n that_o may_v be_v have_v by_o she_o be_v not_o true_a love_n but_o only_a lust_n because_o herein_o a_o man_n

meat_n and_o drink_n and_o such_o other_o pleasant_a thing_n although_o they_o do_v great_o delight_v we_o yet_o they_o can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v love_v because_o they_o perish_v with_o the_o use_n and_o though_o they_o do_v ●emaine_v they_o be_v not_o capable_a of_o any_o pleasure_n or_o good_a to_o be_v do_v in_o way_n of_o requital_n which_o be_v the_o chief_a part_n of_o love_n but_o man_n
