a_o short_a encomium_n i_o shall_v say_v thus_o much_o that_o from_o his_o youth_n he_o follow_v the_o call_n of_o the_o ministry_n and_o because_o then_o the_o wicked_a prevail_v and_o he_o be_v a_o

of_o babylon_n on_o her_o back_n when_o the_o faithful_a begin_v to_o exalt_v their_o horn_n in_o this_o nation_n he_o be_v a_o great_a fomenter_n of_o the_o quarrel_n and_o give_v occasion_n to_o
