that_o the_o life_n of_o a_o judge_n or_o magistrate_n be_v sincere_a and_o virtuous_a for_o as_o he_o judge_v open_o so_o shall_v he_o be_v judge_v of_o the_o people_n several_o not_o only_a in_o matter_n of_o weight_n and_o importance_n but_o in_o those_o of_o small_a consequence_n for_o always_o the_o rude_a people_n will_v find_v somewhat_o to_o reform_v as_o the_o lacedaemonian_n murmur_v

that_o procee_v from_o common_a people_n so_o must_v we_o in_o like_a sort_n put_v into_o the_o balance_n the_o error_n and_o corruption_n that_o be_v find_v in_o wicked_a judge_n of_o the_o which_o
