from_o a_o priest_n and_o a_o bishop_n from_o a_o bishop_n d._n alas_o sir_n you_o be_v mistake_v there_o be_v more_o devil_n and_o dragon_n than_o i_o forasmuch_o as_o they_o be_v the_o

the_o prodigy_n you_o speak_v of_o be_v a_o sort_n of_o miracle_n indeed_o but_o such_o as_o derive_v from_o the_o red_a dragon_n from_o who_o you_o hold_v your_o mission_n and_o you_o be_v those_o
