their_o offence_n this_o life_n be_v displeasant_a and_o the_o near_a age_n the_o moor_n troublesome_a and_o therefore_o the_o gimniophista_n as_o man_n say_v answer_v alexander_n well_o ask_v

have_v be_v just_o weigh_v they_o shall_v as_o care_n and_o evil_n be_v repute_v yet_o if_o death_n be_v not_o man_n will_v muse_v only_o upon_o theft_n and_o violence_n while_o in_o this_o short_a space_n that_o now_o they_o live_v they_o think_v so_o much_o thereof_o the_o three_o reason_n be_v for_o that_o man_n may_v receive_v reward_n of_o good_a and_o evil_a according_a to_o the_o quality_n of_o their_o desert_n for_o after_o death_n such_o as_o have_v pass_v a_o godly_a life_n shall_v live_v not_o only_o with_o their_o brethren_n &_o kinsfolk_n but_o also_o accompany_v

shall_v be_v torment_v therefore_o for_o wicked_a folk_n only_a death_n can_v be_v think_v evil_a and_o yet_o be_v not_o but_o good_a man_n not_o unlike_o the_o swan_n who_o only_o at_o his_o death_n

sound_o sleep_v he_o taste_v the_o pleasant_a part_n of_o life_n mean_v as_o i_o think_v that_o every_o pleasure_n that_o we_o take_v by_o our_o sense_n have_v in_o it_o more_o displeasure_n than_o

be_v who_o doubt_v i_o remember_v now_o that_o long_o since_o happen_v to_o myself_o neither_o do_v i_o think_v to_o digress_v from_o the_o purpose_n that_o albeit_o the_o twenty_o and_o seven_o

that_o although_o child_n and_o woman_n be_v most_o fearful_a to_o receive_v all_o sort_n of_o medecine_n and_o yield_v to_o cut_v of_o vein_n yet_o be_v ready_a to_o die_v do_v neither_o complain_n
