to_o i_o chap._n ii_o wherefore_o that_o this_o may_v be_v make_v more_o clear_a unto_o we_o let_v we_o consider_v how_o and_o in_o what_o respect_v the_o day_n of_o youth_n be_v call_v good_a day_n they_o be_v good_a day_n 1._o because_o they_o be_v the_o first_o day_n of_o a_o man_n life_n childhood_n be_v but_o as_o it_o be_v a_o preparative_n to_o the_o life_n of_o man_n child_n while_o

now_o you_o know_v that_o the_o first_o in_o every_o kind_n have_v the_o pre-eminence_n the_o first-born_a of_o man_n the_o firstling_n of_o beast_n the_o first-fruit_n of_o the_o earth_n the_o
