they_o be_v undoubted_o a_o mix_a nation_n compound_v of_o briton_n dane_n saxon_n and_o norman_n and_o some_o think_v the_o irish_a be_v also_o a_o mingle_a people_n of_o briton_n gaul_n spaniard_n

there_o be_v hardly_o a_o gentleman_n among_o they_o but_o have_v english_a blood_n in_o his_o vein_n however_o the_o irish_a antiquary_n do_v assert_v that_o the_o irish_a be_v a_o pure_a and_o
