do_v therefore_o labour_n so_o much_o as_o in_o he_o lie_v to_o colour_n out_o the_o unfaithfullnes_n of_o the_o trojan_n and_o will_v likewise_o derive_v the_o trojan_a prince_n from_o the_o line_n

they_o be_v no_o ground_n for_o historian_n to_o build_v upon_o and_o therefore_o to_o return_v again_o to_o our_o first_o purpose_n i_o say_v there_o be_v degree_n of_o gentry_n aswell_o as_o of_o

and_o more_o mighty_a which_o may_v be_v say_v not_o only_o in_o respect_n of_o birth_n but_o likewise_o in_o respect_n of_o virtue_n gentleman_n be_v of_o three_o kind_n the_o first_o in_o respect_n of_o blood_n for_o so_o the_o vulgar_a sort_n understand_v it_o the_o second_o in_o respect_n of_o virtue_n for_o so_o the_o philosopher_n do_v teach_v it_o the_o three_o in_o respect_n of_o both_o and_o that_o say_v i_o be_v true_a gentry_n indeed_o gentry_n by_o blood_n belong_v but_o to_o the_o body_n but_o gentry_n by_o good_a condition_n have_v relation_n to_o the_o mind_n but_o when_o a_o man_n be_v gentle_a both_o by_o birth_n &_o virtue_n i_o see_v not_o what_o may_v be_v add_v unto_o he_o yet_o some_o will_v have_v a_o three_o supply_n of_o riches_n &_o wealth_n but_o riches_n can_v

a_o ready_a instrument_n to_o put_v in_o practice_n certain_a virtue_n belong_v to_o gentry_n namely_o bounty_n and_o liberality_n otherwise_o riches_n be_v rather_o a_o disgrace_n then_o a_o grace_n
