for_o if_o say_v he_o it_o so_o fall_v out_o that_o a_o woman_n be_v force_v against_o her_o will_n yet_o her_o husband_n will_v entertain_v she_o as_o kind_o and_o love_v she_o as_o dear_o as_o

the_o testimony_n which_o epictetus_n give_v of_o the_o roman_a lady_n in_o his_o time_n that_o they_o take_v no_o such_o great_a delight_n in_o read_v the_o history_n of_o lucretia_n for_o if_o
