go_v out_o the_o world_n also_o itself_o be_v trouble_v and_o begin_v to_o grow_v out_o of_o order_n perhaps_o it_o happen_v so_o because_o his_o lordship_n go_v out_o of_o office_n his_o great_a

of_o his_o lordship_n because_o i_o perceive_v in_o page_n 44._o of_o his_o pamphlet_n he_o seem_v as_o if_o he_o will_v speak_v like_o a_o friend_n of_o he_o and_o say_v the_o parliament_n have_v
