can_v be_v a_o command_n to_o desire_v he_o as_o our_o good_a because_o the_o love_n of_o my_o neighbour_n be_v this_o love_n of_o another_o as_o such_o the_o wish_v well_o and_o do_v good_a to_o

creature_n but_o because_o whatsoever_o i_o thus_o love_n must_v be_v affect_v and_o desire_v from_o self-love_n and_o not_o from_o love_n unto_o another_o nevertheless_o it_o be_v very_o evident_a that_o i_o may_v and_o sometime_o aught_o to_o desire_v my_o neighbour_n as_o a_o good_a to_o i_o for_o be_v there_o not_o such_o a_o thing_n as_o a_o good_a friend_n a_o good_a companion_n a_o good_a
