of_o clonico_n oh_o noble_a queen_n since_o you_o say_v so_o it_o plain_o appear_v that_o you_o have_v always_o be_v love_v again_o of_o he_o who_o you_o have_v love_v by_o occasion_n whereof_o you_o hardly_o know_v what_o my_o pain_n be_v how_o may_v it_o appear_v that_o jealousy_n bring_v great_a grief_n than_o be_v that_o i_o feel_v forsomuch_o as_o the_o jealous_a possess_v that_o he_o

neverthethelesse_o he_o may_v through_o experience_n abandon_v such_o jealousy_n if_o it_o happen_v that_o this_o judgement_n be_v find_v false_a but_o i_o be_v kindle_v with_o a_o fiery_a desire_n how_o much_o y●_z more_o i_o see_v myself_o far_o off_o from_o the_o attain_n thesame_a so_o much_o the_o more_o i_o burn_v and_o consume_v myself_o assault_v of_o a_o thousand_o instigation_n

your_o answer_n seem_v contrary_a to_o the_o truth_n because_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o that_o it_o be_v much_o better_a to_o hold_v with_o suspicion_n than_o to_o desire_v with_o tear_n that_o
