a_o natural_a cause_n in_o the_o body_n which_o i_o leave_v other_o because_o in_o woman_n there_o be_v more_o vice_n and_o evil_a than_o in_o man_n a_o hard_a judgement_n and_o without_o any_o

therefore_o the_o punishment_n of_o be_v unclean_a be_v lessen_v in_o the_o male_a and_o double_v in_o the_o female_a 5_o the_o difference_n of_o offer_v allow_v to_o the_o poor_a 8._o sort_n very_o
