to_o give_v he_o with_o both_o your_o spur_n as_o he_o be_v fall_v down_o will_v be_v a_o great_a mean_n to_o put_v it_o from_o he_o but_o take_v heed_n not_o to_o make_v use_n of_o they_o just_a as_o

like_o the_o spur_n when_o seasonable_o give_v for_o what_o make_v a_o horse_n sensible_a to_o the_o heel_n but_o the_o spur_n therefore_o use_v they_o and_o that_o also_o until_o he_o obey_v you_o for_o no_o horse_n can_v be_v a_o ready_a horse_n until_o be_v obey_v the_o heel_n and_o consequent_o answer_v the_o spur_n but_o however_o take_v heed_n you_o do_v not_o dull_v he_o with_o they_o for_o than_o he_o will_v care_v no_o more_o for_o they_o than_o if_o he_o be_v a_o stock_n or_o stone_n therefore_o remember_v to_o give_v they_o but_o seldom_o and_o upon_o just_a occasion_n but_o when_o you_o do_v give_v they_o let_v it_o always_o be_v smart_o and_o to_o the_o purpose_n if_o your_o horse_n malicious_o rebel_n against_o what_o you_o will_v have_v he_o do_v leave_v not_o spur_v of_o he_o and_o that_o sound_o until_o you_o find_v he_o begin_v to_o obey_v you_o and_o when_o he_o obey_v you_o in_o the_o least_o then_o light_v off_o and_o send_v he_o to_o the_o stable_a and_o the_o next_o morning_n try_v he_o again_o and_o if_o he_o obey_v you_o cherish_v and_o make_v much_o of_o he_o forgive_a he_o many_o other_o fault_n that_o day_n that_o he_o may_v know_v you_o have_v
