a_o strange_a and_o terrible_a sight_n foresee_v in_o this_o kingdom_n and_o city_n of_o london_n it_o be_v a_o folly_n for_o i_o thrice_o worthy_a citizen_n to_o make_v a_o long_a oration_n of_o the_o misery_n that_o both_o you_o in_o the_o city_n and_o we_o in_o the_o country_n have_v already_o sip_v and_o be_v like_a to_o drink_v deep_a of_o ere_o long_o unless_o some_o speedy_a course_n

a_o redress_n alas_o pen_n be_v not_o instrument_n to_o offend_v warrior_n or_o to_o suppress_v their_o violence_n nil_fw-la prodest_fw-la ratio_fw-la ubi_fw-la vis_fw-la imperat_fw-la reason_n be_v
