I'd create a dictionary with the parts of speech as keys and the colors(as 
html strings) as values.

I'd then arrange your data into tuples of (wordpart, speechpart)
So
('Al', DET)('wlAy',NOUN)....

Then you can print with
for item in tuples:
    htmlstr += colors[item[1]] + item[0]   # might need to add a closing 
tag too...

Does that help?
