much_o be_v famine_n fear_v among_o the_o ancient_a greek_n that_o in_o the_o time_n of_o abundance_n they_o use_v to_o scourge_v famine_n with_o rod_n out_o of_o their_o house_n say_v for_o as_o

that_o they_o do_v eat_v the_o very_a serpent_n that_o have_v be_v dead_a a_o long_a while_n which_o multitude_n of_o serpent_n do_v presage_v this_o great_a calamity_n to_o come_v and_o though_o
