little_o remember_v their_o duty_n to_o their_o better_n and_o so_o much_o forget_v the_o truth_n that_o if_o other_o have_v say_v it_o then_o our_o brethren_n i_o will_v have_v remember_v they_o of_o this_o old_a sentence_n oportet_fw-la esse_fw-la memorem_fw-la they_o know_v who_o neither_o can_v these_o two_o they_o that_o be_v comeliness_n &_o order_n be_v destitute_a of_o this_o other_o that_o
