of_o the_o soon_o which_o as_o we_o see_v this_o time_n of_o the_o year_n spread_v upon_o the_o ground_n do_v quycken_v &_o make_v lyfely_a many_o creature_n the_o which_o before_o appear_v as_o

shall_v have_v herb_n and_o tree_n to_o grow_v as_o well_o in_o winter_n as_o they_o now_o do_v this_o time_n of_o the_o year_n the_o cause_n of_o this_o weykenes_n be_v for_o the_o son_n shoor_v so_o
