misfortune_n of_o king_n james_n be_v a_o wonder_n have_v so_o little_a charity_n one_o for_o another_o there_o be_v nothing_o more_o frequent_a among_o they_o than_o envy_n passion_n repine_v and_o

else_o there_o will_v never_o be_v peace_n in_o israel_n they_o will_v be_v the_o best_a marks-man_n in_o the_o world_n if_o they_o can_v but_o bring_v a_o great_a gun_n as_o well_o as_o a_o little_a
