then_o ponder_v his_o love_n to_o mankind_n in_o general_a and_o to_o yourself_o in_o particular_a etc._n etc._n the_o second_o rule_n which_o concern_v the_o action_n of_o your_o will_n be_v that_o

for_o you_o etc._n etc._n and_o in_o some_o such_o manner_n you_o may_v conclude_v each_o mystery_n by_o some_o particular_a resolution_n draw_v from_o the_o subject_n of_o the_o meditation_n either_o of_o correct_v such_o a_o imperfection_n or_o of_o exercise_v such_o a_o virtue_n and_o assure_v yourself_o that_o if_o you_o present_o apply_v yourself_o to_o the_o practice_n of_o such_o well_o make_v resolution_n humble_o implore_v the_o divin_fw-fr assistance_n therein_o by_o the_o bless_a virgin_n intercession_n you_o shall_v find_v it_o a_o most_o speedy_a and_o efficacious_a mean_n to_o
