do_v dispose_v she_o to_o fear_v so_o her_o beauty_n on_o the_o other_o side_n make_v her_o secure_a yea_o sixtus_n we_o consider_v it_o very_o well_o and_o know_v that_o in_o rome_n the_o argument_n

his_o devotion_n be_v fantastical_a his_o affection_n be_v over_o foolish_a to_o they_o and_o long_o doubtless_o have_v he_o live_v if_o he_o have_v never_o love_v nor_o repose_v any_o confidence_n in_o they_o and_o that_o those_o caitiffs_n know_v full_a well_o for_o which_o most_o in_o humane_o they_o repay_v he_o that_o ill_a therefore_o i_o say_v there_o be_v no_o cause_n why_o a_o friar_n
