as_o before_o there_o be_v one_o great_a fault_n you_o will_v often_o find_v in_o the_o make_n of_o a_o hawk_n fly_v and_o that_o be_v when_o she_o
remember_v it_o and_o look_v for_o the_o same_o order_n and_o without_o it_o will_v not_o fly_v towards_o the_o latter_a end_n of_o the_o year_n but_o if_o the_o partridge_n be_v spring_v far_o from_o

will_v certain_o reclaim_v she_o from_o that_o fault_n and_o teach_v she_o to_o rise_v herself_o for_o she_o will_v quick_o understand_v that_o else_o she_o shall_v be_v catch_v and_o toss_v up_o
