it_o be_v the_o first_o copy_n 16._o and_o therefore_o in_o every_o good_a oration_n we_o find_v a_o thousand_o extemporary_a flourish_n &_o in_o these_o too_o which_o we_o know_v be_v only_o set_v

teach_v i_o i_o have_v often_o plead_v i_o have_v often_o be_v a_o judge_n i_o have_v often_o sit_v in_o counsel_n one_o thing_n move_v one_o man_n one_o another_z and_o for_o the_o most_o part_n small_a matter_n draw_v on_o the_o great_a man_n judgement_n be_v various_a their_o will_n be_v various_a hence_o it_o be_v that_o they_o that_o have_v hear_v the_o same_o cause_n together_o often_o

nor_o that_o he_o cherish_v they_o befall_v pericles_n himself_o by_o a_o shortness_n or_o quickness_n of_o speech_n or_o both_o these_o for_o they_o differ_v without_o a_o excellent_a faculty_n of_o speak_v 30_o for_o to_o delight_n to_o persuade_v require_v copiousness_n of_o speech_n and_o time_n and_o he_o only_o be_v able_a to_o leave_v a_o sting_n in_o his_o hearer_n mind_n who_o do_v not_o prick_v but_o fasten_v it_o in_o 31._o add_v what_o another_o comedian_n say_v of_o the_o same_o pericles_z he_o flash_v he_o thunder_v he_o confound_v greece_n 32._o for_o not_o a_o curt_a and_o

he_o as_o well_o miss_v the_o mean_a that_o come_v below_o a_o thing_n as_o he_o that_o go_v above_o it_o that_o speak_v too_o little_a as_o he_o that_o speak_v too_o much_o 34._o and_o therefore_o as_o you_o often_o hear_v that_o too_o much_o and_o more_o than_o need_v so_o you_o may_v this_o poor_o and_o weak_o one_o be_v say_v to_o have_v outgo_v the_o matter_n another_o be_v say_v to_o

more_o pure_a yet_o it_o be_v the_o sign_n of_o a_o great_a wit_n 35._o nor_o indeed_o when_o i_o say_v this_o do_v i_o like_v he_o in_o homer_n that_o have_v no_o measure_n in_o his_o word_n but_o he_o that_o speak_v word_n even_o like_a unto_o a_o winter_n snow_n not_o but_o that_o he_o also_o please_v i_o exceed_o well_o who_o utter_v few_o word_n but_o very_o sweet_a 36._o yet_o if_o i_o may_v have_v my_o choice_n i_o will_v have_v that_o oration_n which_o be_v like_o a_o winter_n snow_n that_o be_v thick_a continual_a and_o plentiful_a at_o the_o last_o divine_a and_o heavenly_a 37._o but_o a_o short_a plead_n be_v more_o take_v with_o many_o 38._o it_o be_v so_o indeed_o but_o to_o idle_a person_n to_o respect_v who_o niceness_n and_o sloth_n as_o a_o judgement_n be_v a_o fondness_n 39_o for_o if_o you_o advise_v with_o these_o it_o be_v not_o only_o better_a to_o plead_v brief_o but_o not_o at_o all_o 40._o this_o my_o opinion_n yet_o which_o i_o shall_v alter_v if_o you_o dissent_v but_o i_o pray_v you_o tell_v i_o plain_o why_o you_o dissent_v 41._o for_o though_o i_o ought_v to_o yield_v to_o your_o authority_n yet_o i_o think_v it_o better_o in_o so_o
