of_o a_o merry_a play_n and_o can_v abide_v the_o half_a hear_n of_o a_o sour_a checking_a sermon_n player_n therefore_o even_o these_o ancient_a preacher_n must_v now_o and_o then_o play_v the_o

of_o his_o offence_n be_v great_a and_o he_o think_v by_o good_a reason_n to_o be_v faulty_a needful_a the_o place_n of_o logic_n as_o i_o say_v can_v be_v spare_v for_o the_o confirmation_n of_o
