which_o i_o be_v not_o so_o inconsiderate_a but_o to_o object_v to_o myself_o but_o find_v that_o it_o be_v many_o time_n see_v that_o a_o man_n that_o stand_v off_o and_o somewhat_o remove_v srom_o

that_o all_o reformation_n must_v be_v after_o one_o platform_n for_o the_o first_o of_o these_o it_o be_v excellent_o say_v by_o the_o prophet_n state_n super_fw-la vias_fw-la antiquas_fw-la &_o

a_o stand_n and_o to_o discover_v and_o take_v a_o view_n but_o it_o be_v no_o warrant_n to_o guide_v or_o conduct_v the_o a_o just_a ground_n i_o say_v it_o be_v of_o deliberation_n but_o not_o of_o
