these_o condition_n we_o need_v not_o be_v amaze_v if_o plato_n and_o aristotle_n stand_v in_o need_n of_o their_o master_n to_o instruct_v they_o there_o be_v a_o three_o difference_n of_o wit_n

in_o their_o write_n of_o what_o they_o have_v find_v out_o in_o the_o whole_a course_n of_o their_o life_n to_o the_o end_n that_o the_o doctor_n that_o come_v after_o they_o may_v bold_o make_v use_n of_o those_o that_o be_v safe_a and_o forbear_v those_o that_o be_v poisonous_a beside_o which_o we_o be_v to_o know_v that_o the_o common_a and_o vulgar_a thing_n in_o all_o art_n be_v
