for_o composition_n a_o trifle_n or_o if_o there_o be_v much_o ado_n to_o get_v the_o king_n new_a land_n upon_o concealment_n and_o that_o which_o he_o have_v already_o be_v not_o well_o know_v and_o

that_o which_o make_v every_o man_n ready_a with_o their_o undertake_n and_o their_o project_n to_o disturb_v the_o ancient_a frame_n of_o the_o exchequer_n then_o the_o which_o i_o be_o persuade_v
