among_o his_o tory_n friend_n at_o sam_n be_v and_o value_v no_o more_o the_o screetching_n of_o the_o poor_a damn_a soul_n than_o he_o do_v the_o twang_n of_o his_o fiddle_n now_o for_o my_o part_n

before_o we_o can_v come_v to_o this_o river_n we_o must_v past_o many_o sandy_a desert_n and_o vast_a mountain_n of_o ash_n between_o which_o mountain_n be_v many_o large_a spacious_a vale_n very_o well_o set_v with_o tree_n but_o these_o tree_n be_v never_o green_a and_o bear_v no_o fruit_n because_o of_o the_o noisome_a vapour_n that_o arise_v from_o the_o l●ke_n one_o of_o these_o vale_n be_v

whatsoever_o misdemeanour_n he_o do_v commit_v before_o he_o go_v out_o of_o hell_n belzebub_n because_o towzer_n be_v a_o cordial_a friend_n take_v the_o oath_n now_o belzebub_n begin_v to_o be_v
