i_o never_o find_v that_o a_o restore_n be_v make_v of_o thing_n either_o absolute_o good_a or_o absolute_o evil_a but_o of_o thing_n indifferent_a for_o neither_o can_v virtue_n be_v turn_v into_o vice_n nor_o vice_n into_o virtue_n truth_n can_v become_v falsehood_n nor_o falsehood_n become_v truth_n no_o they_o can_v degenerate_v in_o any_o sort_n from_o their_o very_a nature_n and_o therefore_o a_o restitution_n can_v be_v make_v of_o they_o as_o though_o they_o have_v change_v either_o into_o other_o nature_n but_o man_n for_o that_o be_v leave_v in_o his_o own_o hand_n to_o
