not_o i_o have_v lose_v three_o month_n labour_n and_o my_o reward_n be_v with_o god_n who_o will_v clear_v the_o innocent_a another_o way_n many_o think_v because_o i_o have_v always_o argue_v for_o his_o highness_n that_o i_o have_v receive_v some_o gratuity_n from_o his_o highness_n true_o friend_n he_o have_v have_v of_o my_o book_n and_o though_o many_o time_n i_o have_v be_v at_o his_o
