dissent_v from_o it_o in_o all_o virtuous_a action_n this_o a_o wife_n man_n will_v soon_o espy_v and_o that_o especial_o by_o these_o token_n first_o a_o flatterer_n be_v accustom_v to_o praise_v a_o

a_o man_n be_v alive_a objection_n a_o flatterer_n will_v smoothe_v and_o consent_v with_o you_o in_o all_o thing_n therefore_o he_o be_v not_o vicious_a answer_n a_o flatterer_n be_v either_o a_o
