speech_n in_o the_o 5._o verse_n be_v rugitus_fw-la leonis_fw-la in_o which_o he_o bewray_v himself_o at_o the_o full_a of_o which_o two_o the_o first_o be_v but_o introduction_n to_o the_o other_o

if_o he_o have_v say_v i_o have_v therefore_o do_v well_o in_o thus_o say_v and_o hide_v yea_o i_o shall_v not_o have_v do_v well_o if_o i_o have_v do_v otherwise_o and_o so_o his_o plea_n be_v that_o
