i_o have_v know_v it_o exercise_v to_o the_o poor_a x._o her_o humility_n and_o detestation_n of_o pride_n be_v manifest_a not_o only_o in_o her_o garb_n and_o behaviour_n but_o in_o her_o low_a thought_n of_o herself_o and_o the_o lowliness_n of_o all_o her_o conversation_n and_o great_a dislike_n of_o all_o that_o savour_v of_o pride_n xi_o she_o be_v not_o morose_n nor_o a_o refuser_n of_o

constant_a course_n of_o better_a work_n and_o beside_o her_o health_n be_v therefore_o the_o more_o incline_v to_o be_v much_o in_o the_o country_n that_o her_o mind_n and_o time_n may_v not_o be_v at_o the_o mercy_n of_o too_o much_o intrude_a diversion_n and_o unprofitable_a discourse_n xii_o much_o more_o be_v she_o a_o verse_n to_o all_o sort_n of_o sensuality_n such_o please_a of_o the_o

other_o holy_a thing_n be_v her_o food_n and_o feast_n her_o work_n and_o recreation_n xiii_o her_o prudence_n in_o all_o matter_n be_v very_o exemplary_a be_v much_o more_o against_o unadvised_a
