fluid_n and_o get_n into_o the_o ear_n make_v vibration_n upon_o the_o drum_n of_o it_o like_v unto_o those_o of_o air_n but_o all_o this_o be_v nothing_o in_o respect_n of_o what_o i_o may_v in_o

do_v require_v clear_a sight_n and_o a_o exact_a level_a of_o the_o hand_n according_a to_o the_o quality_n of_o the_o earth_n or_o table_n and_o to_o the_o situation_n and_o distance_n of_o the_o

i_o know_v in_o spain_n the_o young_a brother_n of_o the_o constable_n of_o castille_n but_o the_o reflection_n of_o his_o see_v of_o word_n call_v into_o my_o remembrance_n the_o other_o that_o
