a_o new_a years-gift_n or_o a_o token_n of_o love_n to_o all_o person_n of_o what_o persuasion_n soever_o by_o a_o friend_n and_o lover_n of_o all_o men._n reflect_v with_o myself_o that_o the_o

just_a sentence_n pronounce_v against_o the_o unprofitable_a servant_n that_o have_v not_o employ_v his_o talon_n for_o his_o lord_n use_v i_o tremble_v at_o the_o thought_n of_o it_o and_o in_o the_o
