her_o day_n she_o do_v wait_v till_o her_o change_n come_v for_o if_o the_o wait_a for_o our_o change_n be_v first_o the_o lead_n of_o such_o a_o life_n as_o do_v show_v we_o know_v there_o will_v

for_o the_o second_o the_o confluence_n of_o worldly_a blessing_n i_o confess_v my_o ignorance_n in_o heraldry_n to_o describe_v her_o pedigree_n and_o descent_n derive_v by_o many_o generation_n
