mean_v which_o the_o country_n people_n call_v el_fw-es hombre_fw-es della_fw-it luna_fw-la the_o man_n of_o the_o moon_n as_o for_o that_o part_n which_o shine_v so_o clear_o in_o our_o eye_n it_o

a_o glass_n how_o ill_o this_o agree_v with_o that_o which_o our_o philosopher_n teach_v in_o the_o school_n i_o be_o not_o ignorant_a but_o alas_o how_o many_o of_o their_o error_n have_v time_n
