to_o think_v of_o such_o a_o course_n i_o will_v in_o this_o place_n set_v down_o the_o most_o principal_a way_n whereby_o he_o may_v come_v thither_o and_o that_o to_o answer_v to_o such_o person_n

both_o these_o way_n likewise_o do_v meet_v at_o lisonzao_n which_o the_o turk_n call_v ague-bianche_a or_o white_a water_n a_o river_n that_o be_v very_o memorable_a for_o the_o battle_n of_o theodorico_n king_n of_o the_o goth_n and_o of_o odoacre_n king_n of_o the_o heruli_n and_o also_o for_o the_o last_o approach_n of_o the_o turk_n when_o they_o arrive_v even_o as_o far_o as_o
