he_o commend_v the_o king_n cavalier_n for_o brave_a gentleman_n three_o in_o my_o forecited_a word_n i_o plain_o set_v down_o the_o reason_n which_o move_v the_o popish_a cavaiier_n to_o show_v i_o

that_o popish_a cavalier_n do_v use_v i_o courteous_o and_o that_o i_o may_v not_o be_v ungrateful_a to_o god_n nor_o man_n i_o then_o do_v now_o do_v and_o ever_o shall_v acknowledge_v that_o i_o
