year_n when_o such_o a_o one_o overcome_v it_o be_v brave_a and_o by_o the_o god_n i_o wish_v the_o same_o but_o then_o consider_v first_o what_o be_v to_o be_v do_v through_o what_o a_o course_n of_o hardship_n you_o must_v run_v ere_o you_o proceed_v and_o what_o may_v be_v the_o event_n and_o consequence_n of_o such_o a_o great_a attempt_n with_o a_o strict_a course_n of_o life_n you_o must_v

you_o must_v drink_v no_o wine_n nor_o yet_o cold_a water_n and_o observe_v your_o time_n for_o exercise_n you_o must_v yourself_o inure_v the_o summer_n heat_n and_o winter_n cold_a to_o endure_v
