upon_o two_o or_o three_o of_o they_o that_o have_v the_o mild_a name_n &_o either_o for_o their_o customariness_n in_o most_o place_n or_o connaturalnesse_n with_o many_o temper_n seem_v to_o claim_v a_o little_a more_o connivance_n or_o indulgence_n and_o when_o we_o have_v find_v these_o upon_o trial_n to_o have_v no_o right_n at_o all_o to_o friendship_n we_o conclude_v safe_o against_o all_o other_o which_o have_v only_o the_o same_o or_o it_o may_v be_v more_o weak_a title_n i_o will_v instance_n in_o lust_n or_o wantonness_n drunkenness_n and_o covetousness_n which_o their_o favourer_n call_v a_o trick_n of_o youth_n good-fellowship_n and_o thrift_n for_o the_o first_o do_v not_o the_o satisfy_n of_o curius_n his_o lust_n cost_v he_o the_o life_n of_o his_o dear_a and_o

a_o clear_a account_n why_o the_o best_a thing_n be_v use_v so_o ill_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v that_o the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o world_n be_v stranger_n to_o piety_n not_o to_o say_v enemy_n and_o consequent_o to_o friendship_n he_o that_o be_v a_o underminer_n of_o the_o foundation_n must_v of_o necessity_n ruin_v the_o superstructure_n now_o religion_n be_v the_o best_a groundwork_n
