he_o have_v receive_v here_o if_o he_o may_v always_o bold_a it_o here_o be_v a_o evident_a argument_n of_o a_o man_n of_o the_o world_n i_o mean_v such_o a_o man_n as_o have_v health_n of_o body_n in_o this_o world_n he_o have_v for_o outward_o as_o much_o as_o the_o world_n can_v afford_v any_o man_n that_o for_o the_o properness_n of_o his_o body_n his_o comeliness_n his_o health_n he_o have_v as_o much_o as_o the_o world_n can_v give_v he_o have_v convenient_a dwell_n with_o all_o accommodation_n belong_v thereunto_o and_o he_o have_v the_o come_n in_o of_o the_o world_n as_o much_o
