to_o this_o day_n there_o be_v one_o objection_n which_o need_v answer_v before_o we_o come_v to_o coynage_n and_o that_o be_v this_o object_n 1._o that_o if_o tyn_n be_v out_o of_o farm_n and_o at_o

answ_n this_o objection_n though_o it_o be_v countenance_v by_o wise_a man_n be_v yet_o a_o mystery_n and_o it_o must_v necessary_o argue_v a_o great_a weakness_n and_o want_n of_o common_a
