since_o that_o there_o be_v no_o man_n as_o the_o poet_n say_v in_o such_o favour_n with_o god_n that_o he_o can_v assure_v himself_o of_o the_o next_o morrow_n follow_v for_o many_o time_n death_n

here_o i_o think_v it_o needs_o to_o speak_v of_o those_o thing_n which_o plinius_n make_v mention_v of_o in_o his_o natural_a history_n touching_n sudden_a death_n sense_n that_o there_o be_v
