to_o himself_o so_o it_o deed_n a_o honest_a man_n be_v a_o friend_n and_o neghbour_n to_o all_o misfortune_n misery_n and_o necessity_n in_o help_v they_o with_o kind_n love_v and_o industrious_a

the_o god_n of_o humanity_n we_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v ungrateful_a to_o the_o dishonest_a if_o one_o receive_v life_n from_o two_o man_n the_o one_o a_o approve_a honest_a man_n the_o other_o
