i_o must_v confess_v i_o observe_v it_o with_o delight_n since_o it_o make_v she_o say_v a_o hundred_o pleasant_a thing_n as_o she_o be_v very_o much_o weary_v with_o this_o 〈◊〉_d conversation_n which_o so_o much_o grate_v upon_o her_o humour_n there_o come_v in_o a_o gentleman_n a_o kinsman_n of_o she_o and_o this_o be_v remarkable_a that_o though_o this_o man_n be_v none_o of_o those_o

and_o those_o very_a person_n who_o attire_v i_o as_o well_o as_o lycidice_n divert_v i_o extreme_o however_o the_o company_n be_v go_v i_o stay_v alone_o with_o lycidice_n she_o no_o soon_o see_v

that_o ever_o be_v i_o confess_v say_v i_o to_o she_o laugh_v that_o if_o all_o be_v write_v in_o order_n that_o i_o have_v hear_v speak_v to_o day_n it_o will_v be_v a_o fantastical_a discourse_n for_o my_o part_n say_v she_o there_o be_v some_o day_n that_o i_o be_o so_o incense_v against_o my_o sex_n that_o i_o be_o grieve_v to_o the_o very_a heart_n i_o be_o a_o woman_n principal_o when_o

and_o well_o enough_o make_v to_o take_v delight_n in_o hear_v they_o commend_v but_o i_o will_v not_o have_v the_o discourse_n dwell_v upon_o these_o kind_n of_o thing_n but_o that_o they_o be_v speak_v of_o galant_o and_o as_o by_o the_o by_o without_o transport_n and_o application_n and_o not_o as_o some_o woman_n do_v of_o my_o acquaintance_n who_o spend_v all_o their_o life_n in_o such_o like_a talk_n and_o think_v of_o nothing_o else_o and_o who_o thought_n of_o those_o thing_n be_v likewise_o so_o full_a of_o irresolution_n that_o i_o be_o of_o opinion_n that_o at_o the_o end_n of_o their_o day_n they_o will_v not_o have_v determine_v in_o their_o mind_n whether_o carnation_n become_v they_o better_o thanblew_a or_o if_o yellow_a be_v more_o advantageous_a to_o they_o then_o green_n i_o must_v confess_v that_o lycidice_n discourse_v make_v i_o laugh_v and_o i_o find_v it_o so_o much_o the_o more_o pleasant_a in_o that_o it_o be_v true_a that_o there_o be_v a_o lady_n of_o my_o acquaintance_n who_o employ_v all_o her_o wit_n only_o in_o such_o thing_n never_o talk_v of_o any_o thing_n else_o and_o make_v her_o great_a glory_n consist_v in_o what_o surround_v she_o only_o that_o be_v to_o say_v in_o the_o guild_v of_o her_o palace_n in_o the_o magnificence_n of_o her_o furniture_n in_o the_o beauty_n of_o her_o clothes_n and_o in_o the_o richness_n of_o her_o jewel_n after_o have_v laugh_v at_o what_o lycidice_n say_v i_o will_v have_v defend_v woman_n in_o general_a and_o tell_v she_o i_o be_v persuade_v there_o be_v as_o many_o man_n as_o lady_n who_o conversation_n be_v disagreeable_a there_o be_v many_o of_o they_o without_o doubt_n reply_v she_o who_o company_n be_v insupportable_a but_o with_o this_o advantage_n that_o we_o can_v easy_o get_v rid_v of_o they_o and_o we_o be_v not_o oblige_v to_o treat_v they_o with_o so_o exact_a a_o civility_n but_o athis_n this_o be_v not_o the_o thing_n in_o dispute_n for_o what_o i_o tell_v you_o be_v that_o the_o most_o amiable_a woman_n in_o the_o world_n when_o they_o be_v a_o great_a number_n together_o do_v hardly_o say_v any_o thing_n that_o be_v to_o be_v value_v and_o be_v more_o tire_v than_o if_o they_o be_v alone_o but_o as_o for_o such_o man_n as_o be_v civil_a and_o well_o breed_v it_o be_v not_o the_o same_o with_o they_o their_o conversation_n be_v not_o without_o doubt_n attend_v with_o so_o much_o mirth_n when_o there_o be_v no_o lady_n as_o when_o there_o be_v but_o common_o though_o it_o be_v more_o serious_a yet_o it_o be_v more_o rational_a and_o in_o short_a they_o can_v easy_o be_v without_o we_o than_o we_o without_o they_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o this_o vex_v i_o more_o than_o i_o can_v tell_v you_o for_o my_o part_n reply_v
