it_o doubtless_o you_o will_v die_v no_o sir_n say_v i_o unto_o he_o for_o do_v you_o not_o know_v that_o iron_n touch_v with_o a_o loadstone_n do_v participate_v of_o the_o quality_n of_o the_o

not_o far_o from_o the_o town_n where_o inquire_v how_o all_o square_n go_v i_o understand_v that_o every_o one_o be_v well_o satisfy_v concern_v i_o though_o the_o loss_n of_o that_o place_n be_v
