intelligible_a to_o the_o vulgar_a as_o well_o as_o to_o the_o learned_a and_o partly_o because_o i_o suppose_v that_o neither_o the_o whorish_a dress_n of_o human_a eloquence_n or_o high_a flow_a

wherein_o be_v may_n be_v some_o bawdy-like_a or_o obscene-like_a expression_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v first_o that_o in_o this_o practice_n i_o have_v the_o precedent_n of_o some_o of_o the_o most_o

some_o and_o that_o not_o without_o some_o colour_n of_o reason_n that_o many_o of_o our_o air_n or_o tune_n be_v make_v by_o good_a angel_n but_o the_o letter_n or_o line_n of_o our_o song_n by_o devil_n we_o choose_v the_o part_n angelical_a and_o leave_v the_o diabolical_a thrid_o it_o be_v as_o possible_a and_o probable_a that_o these_o vain_a or_o profane_a man_n who_o compose_v those_o amorous_a naughty_a sonnet_n have_v surreptitious_o borrow_v those_o grave_n sweet_a tune_n from_o former_a spiritual_a hymn_n and_o song_n and_o why_o may_v not_o we_o again_o challenge_v our_o own_o plead_v for_o restitution_n and_o bring_v back_o to_o the_o right_a owner_n apply_v those_o grave_a air_n again_o to_o a_o divine_a and_o spiritual_a subject_n and_o last_o we_o find_v that_o paul_n
