therefore_o these_o be_v horn_n and_o not_o tooth_n the_o power_n of_o fire_n can_v alter_v tooth_n but_o these_o tooth_n break_v if_o you_o go_v about_o to_o change_v their_o proportion_n or_o

last_o as_o nature_n have_v give_v another_o shape_n and_o great_a proportion_n of_o body_n to_o elephant_n then_o to_o any_o other_o beast_n so_o also_o it_o be_v not_o unreasonable_a that_o it_o
