swear.07 - swear into office

Based on Google data. Comparison to swear.06. This is the same as swear in when the preposition is 'into'. In these cases, 'into' is treed as the head of the following PP, so this will be treated as part of the Arg1 rather than a VPC since that would require delving into a lower node in most if not all cases.
