himself_o disdain_v this_o reason_n seem_v to_o i_o very_o strange_a that_o a_o man_n may_v go_v to_o church_n to_o serve_v his_o king_n and_o may_v not_o go_v to_o church_n to_o serve_v himself_o when_o as_o charity_n always_o begin_v at_o home_n and_o if_o a_o man_n be_v naught_o in_o or_o to_o himself_o to_o who_o can_v he_o be_v good_a or_o that_o fear_n of_o displeasure_n through_o
