for_o his_o run_n for_o his_o nimbleness_n for_o the_o pull_n in_o of_o his_o neck_n for_o laugh_v sometime_o more_o than_o occasion_n of_o the_o part_n he_o play_v do_v require_v see_v he_o do_v this_o also_o to_o gratify_v the_o people_n as_o know_v well_o enough_o how_o the_o vulgar_a sort_n be_v take_v with_o it_o and_o if_o demetrius_n have_v go_v about_o any_o such_o thing_n it_o will_v have_v make_v a_o most_o ill-favoured_a show_v wherefore_o let_v every_o one_o know_v himself_o and_o let_v he_o then_o deliberate_a about_o the_o frame_n of_o his_o work_n not_o only_o with_o the_o common_a precept_n of_o art_n but_o also_o with_o his_o own_o nature_n neither_o be_v it_o for_o all_o that_o impossible_a but_o that_o a_o man_n may_v do_v all_o thing_n or_o at_o least_o the_o great_a part_n of_o they_o after_o a_o decent_a manner_n as_o it_o be_v then_o manifest_a that_o every_o artificer_n have_v a_o peculiar_a grace_n in_o his_o work_n agree_v with_o the_o constitution_n
