wound_v his_o soul_n within_o he_o go_v near_o to_o put_v out_o his_o smoke_a flax_n and_o overwhelm_v he_o with_o the_o wave_n of_o despair_n very_o i_o persuade_v myself_o have_v it_o be_v

these_o boanerges_n careful_o to_o examine_v the_o ground_n on_o which_o they_o plant_v their_o terrible_a artillery_n if_o we_o will_v believe_v truth_n itself_o the_o young_a man_n in_o the_o
