and_o the_o exact_a composition_n of_o the_o pill_n and_o diet-drink_a but_o he_o desire_v before_o he_o will_v appear_v to_o be_v further_o convince_v that_o these_o be_v the_o very_a same_o and_o the_o only_a ingredient_n the_o decease_a make_v use_n of_o wherefore_o to_o satisfy_v the_o doctor_n i_o go_v to_o mr._n head_n a_o druggist_n in_o the_o strand_n near_o bull-inn-court_n who_o be_v the_o only_a person_n mr._n beaghan_n buy_v his_o drug_n of_o these_o several_a year_n and_o mr._n head_n will_v justify_v that_o the_o drug_n in_o my_o receipt_n be_v the_o very_a same_o which_o
