undo_v a_o cast_v away_o the_o scorn_n of_o fortune_n there_o be_v some_o though_o their_o heart_n be_v violent_o assault_v with_o jealousy_n and_o false_a suspicion_n insomuch_o that_o they_o can_v

this_o passion_n be_v most_o predominant_a in_o old_a man_n as_o say_v the_o author_n of_o the_o accomplish_a woman_n which_o very_o proper_o be_v compare_v to_o ivy_n because_o that_o grow_v
