to_o the_o north_n shall_v be_v burn_v therein_o these_o word_n be_v a_o true_a comment_n upon_o our_o time_n and_o our_o time_n be_v a_o sad_a comment_n upon_o these_o word_n in_o the_o word_n we_o

to_o apply_v lenitive_n and_o corrosive_n and_o to_o administer_v cordial_n and_o bitter_a potion_n it_o must_v be_v a_o sun-shiny_a day_n indeed_o that_o be_v without_o any_o cloud_n and_o it_o

alas_o promise_n do_v not_o work_v upon_o they_o threaten_n do_v not_o at_o all_o prevail_v with_o they_o and_o god_n patience_n and_o forbearance_n do_v not_o at_o all_o engage_v they_o to_o
