A46221	Work for a cooper being an answer to a libel, written by Thomas Wynne the cooper, the ale-man, the quack, and the speaking-Quaker : with a brief account how that dissembling people differ at this day from what at first they were / by one who abundantly pities their ignorance and folly.	Jones, William, fl. 1679-1710.	1679 (1679)	Wing J1002; ESTC R12360	16,124	36

doleful_o all_o that_o have_v either_o honesty_n or_o courage_n to_o stem_n or_o thwart_v the_o current_n of_o their_o pride_n and_o avarice_n they_o use_v the_o good_a thing_n of_o this_o world_n

their_o way_n of_o good-fellowship_n be_v also_o become_v very_o fashionable_a and_o for_o their_o last_a commendation_n be_v now_o so_o conformable_a a_o people_n in_o that_o point_n that_o they_o
