will_v avoid_v this_o folly_n and_o acquaint_v themselves_o with_o the_o plain_a and_o best_a kind_n of_o speech_n must_v seek_v from_o time_n to_o time_n such_o word_n as_o be_v common_o receive_v

&_o with_o choice_n utter_a word_n most_o apt_a for_o their_o purpose_n in_o weighty_a cause_n grave_a word_n be_v think_v most_o needful_a that_o the_o greatness_n of_o the_o matter_n may_v the_o
