shall_v do_v my_o endeavour_n to_o prevent_v all_o such_o folly_n so_o far_o as_o a_o faithful_a account_n of_o my_o appear_v and_o proceed_v in_o the_o business_n may_v do_v it_o upon_o what_o

be_v require_v by_o any_o that_o have_v authority_n so_o to_o do_v yet_o i_o think_v it_o my_o duty_n to_o silence_v they_o that_o so_o the_o person_n that_o be_v guilty_a of_o those_o horrid_a
