neighbourhood_n little_a import_v but_o our_o age_n i_o know_v not_o through_o what_o wicked_a accident_n be_v light_n upon_o time_n of_o such_o disposition_n that_o when_o we_o shall_v taste_v of_o

that_o nothing_o happen_v to_o we_o that_o have_v not_o befall_v many_o other_o and_o though_o this_o may_v yield_v thou_o comfort_n yet_o i_o will_v propound_v a_o thing_n to_o thou_o that_o shall_v

not_o to_o allege_v now_o what_o i_o have_v often_o read_v and_o hear_v upon_o this_o argument_n that_o there_o be_v no_o evil_a in_o death_n after_o which_o if_o the_o soul_n live_v it_o may_v

so_o you_o shall_v come_v to_o retain_v only_o that_o grief_n which_o you_o feel_v not_o for_o their_o death_n but_o for_o your_o own_o loss_n and_o sure_o it_o befit_v not_o the_o gravity_n and_o
