when_o a_o thing_n be_v speak_v in_o part_n we_o must_v not_o thereby_o judge_v the_o whole_a or_o measure_n the_o universal_a by_o that_o which_o be_v comprehend_v under_o the_o general_a a_o man_n

she_o be_v no_o advoutresse_n wine_n that_o drink_v of_o itself_o be_v not_o mingle_a and_o therefore_o the_o argument_n be_v not_o good_a because_o that_o thing_n be_v in_o the_o less_o or_o
