will_v appear_v to_o be_v the_o latter_a for_o indeed_o till_o that_o be_v make_v no_o trade_n can_v be_v serviceable_a to_o any_o people_n far_o than_o it_o do_v help_v towards_o it_o nor_o be_v it_o

the_o other_o this_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o such_o multitude_n of_o people_n daily_a flock_n into_o city_n from_o the_o country_n if_o they_o have_v either_o encouragement_n themselves_o or_o can_v
