and_o testimony_n of_o good_a will_n as_o helcana_fw-la deal_v with_o his_o wife_n hanna_n 1._o 1_o sam._n 1._o when_o she_o mourn_v because_o she_o have_v no_o child_n and_o indeed_o it_o be_v meet_v that_o the_o husband_n shall_v reprove_v his_o wife_n love_o rather_o by_o persuasion_n then_o by_o force_n for_o as_o in_o a_o great_a stormy_a wind_n a_o man_n lap_v his_o cloak_n about_o he_o and_o
