which_o be_v a_o mere_a figure_n and_o of_o a_o figure_n which_o be_v not_o a_o mere_a figure_n but_o have_v the_o verity_n join_v with_o it_o wherewith_o he_o go_v about_o to_o solder_v the_o brack_n and_o flaw_n in_o your_o leaden_a discourse_n be_v altogether_o impertinent_a for_o the_o question_n between_o i_o and_o you_o be_v of_o trope_n not_o of_o type_n of_o verbal_a figure_n not_o real_a of_o rhetorical_a such_o as_o metaphor_n and_o metonymy_n and_o the_o like_a be_v not_o of_o physical_a or_o natural_a figure_n if_o speech_n be_v of_o the_o latter_a kind_n of_o figure_n i_o deny_v
