custom_n why_o man_n by_o use_n of_o speak_v obtain_v so_o great_a a_o dexterity_n at_o it_o as_o to_o pronounce_v their_o word_n with_o a_o incredible_a swiftness_n and_o even_o without_o consider_v

no_o less_o than_o the_o blood_n there_o be_v only_o this_o difference_n between_o the_o motion_n of_o one_o and_o the_o other_o that_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o part_n of_o the_o blood_n be_v

it_o may_v perhaps_o be_v say_v that_o the_o mind_n have_v general_a and_o confuse_a idea_n which_o it_o do_v not_o produce_v and_o that_o those_o which_o it_o produce_v be_v particular_a more_o
