our_o young_a scholar_n strive_v to_o regulate_v the_o latin_a by_o the_o english_a phrase_n stumble_v into_o most_o ridiculous_a error_n not_o know_v the_o antipathy_n and_o diversity_n that_o be_v

themselves_o of_o the_o passive_a and_o contrariwise_o by_o the_o passive_a when_o they_o be_v in_o the_o active_a as_o cicero_n be_v follow_v by_o all_o orator_n if_o you_o will_v say_v according_a to_o the_o english_a dialect_n cicero_n sequitur_fw-la ab_fw-la omnibus_fw-la oratoribus_fw-la you_o shall_v be_v guilty_a of_o incongruity_n because_o a_o deponent_a have_v no_o passive_a voice_n

you_o will_v say_v placeor_fw-la tuâ_fw-la urbanitate_fw-la although_o it_o have_v not_o the_o passive_a voice_n oftentimes_o there_o go_v preposition_n in_o the_o english_a before_o the_o

antequàm_fw-la libere_fw-la antequà_fw-la manducare_fw-la he_o will_v be_v ridiculous_o incongruous_a but_o what_o shall_v i_o say_v of_o the_o diversity_n of_o the_o tense_n in_o both_o language_n which_o be_v so_o great_a that_o the_o imperfect_a of_o the_o english_a be_v often_o express_v by_o the_o present_a in_o the_o latin_a as_o he_o love_v you_o so_o much_o that_o he_o will_v loose_v
