former_a relation_n and_o future_a hope_n and_o oat_n to_o swear_v true_a which_o no_o wife_n man_n will_v dispute_v there_o may_v be_v two_o letter_n which_o sir_n george_n will_v stir_n off_o from_o

not_o punctual_a with_o he_o but_o what_o have_v you_o there_o a_o bill_n for_o two_o thousand_o pound_n at_o your_o service_n reply_v harcourt_n which_o bill_n sir_n george_n accept_v and_o afterward_o tell_v bedlow_n that_o the_o goldsmith_n have_v allow_v of_o it_o and_o will_v pay_v he_o in_o the_o afternoon_n when_o wakeman_n object_v it_o be_v not_o likely_a he_o shall_v discover_v so_o great_a a_o secret_a upon_o so_o small_a a_o acquaintance_n bedlow_n reply_v he_o will_v have_v a_o hundred_o time_n more_o if_o harcourt_n have_v but_o tell_v he_o he_o be_v his_o confident_a as_o he_o have_v do_v then_o wakeman_n ramble_v out_o into_o a_o passion_n and_o swear_v that_o he_o never_o see_v he_o in_o all_o his_o life_n yet_o bedlow_n make_v it_o out_o by_o circumstance_n

a_o godly_a speech_n about_o innocent_a blood_n and_o bid_v he_o give_v his_o evidence_n anew_o who_o give_v what_o be_v abovesaid_a sir_n george_n reply_v what_o if_o the_o queen_n have_v give_v i_o
