of_o action_n ought_v to_o express_v the_o mind_n as_o grave_o as_o prudent_o as_o solid_o as_o may_v be_v the_o reason_n be_v because_o he_o that_o public_o intend_v to_o persuade_v must_v be_v

therefore_o all_o his_o action_n ought_v to_o be_v prudent_a and_o grave_a for_o if_o they_o be_v any_o way_n light_n or_o rash_a then_o present_o he_o will_v be_v suspect_v either_o not_o to_o have_v
