to_o the_o world_n to_o the_o view_n of_o our_o enemy_n both_o in_o america_n and_o europe_n have_v be_v of_o great_a dis-service_n to_o the_o truth_n and_o give_v great_a occasion_n of_o offence_n

these_o thing_n may_v have_v be_v prevent_v there_o appear_v to_o we_o to_o have_v be_v too_o much_o height_n of_o spirit_n on_o both_o side_n and_o both_o have_v need_n to_o be_v deep_o humble_v
