my_o debt_n at_o least_o in_o brief_a may_v give_v you_o just_a cause_n to_o suspect_v that_o i_o understand_v not_o the_o value_n of_o what_o i_o have_v receive_v and_o therefore_o i_o humble_o ask_v your_o leave_n that_o i_o may_v acknowledge_v to_o you_o that_o you_o have_v high_o benefit_v i_o in_o my_o reputation_n in_o my_o understanding_n in_o my_o affection_n first_o i_o say_v you_o have_v benefit_v i_o in_o my_o reputation_n in_o that_o you_o have_v declare_v i_o capable_a of_o so_o singular_a a_o honour_n as_o to_o be_v in_o the_o number_n of_o those_o person_n who_o you_o think_v worthy_a to_o receive_v so_o rich_a a_o present_a from_o so_o noble_a a_o hand_n for_o i_o to_o have_v sit_v among_o the_o multitude_n who_o your_o stationer_n invite_v to_o feast_v upon_o your_o olio_fw-la have_v be_v proportionable_a enough_o to_o the_o degree_n of_o so_o ordinary_a a_o judgement_n as_o i_o but_o to_o be_v among_o those_o few_o who_o yourself_o have_v nominate_v for_o your_o chief_a guest_n be_v a_o grace_n infinite_o above_o my_o ambition_n second_o you_o have_v benefit_v my_o understanding_n in_o that_o your_o philosophical_a fancy_n have_v furnish_v i_o with_o variety_n of_o such_o novel_a conceit_n concern_v sundry_a the_o most_o difficult_a problem_n in_o nature_n as_o that_o if_o my_o memory_n be_v but_o faithful_a enough_o to_o retain_v they_o i_o shall_v never_o be_v unprovided_a of_o somewhat_o that_o be_v poignant_a and_o grateful_a to_o entertain_v curiosity_n withal_o and_o whenever_o my_o own_o reason_n be_v at_o a_o loss_n how_o to_o investigate_v the_o cause_n of_o some_o natural_a secret_n or_o other_o i_o shall_v relieve_v the_o company_n with_o some_o one_o pleasant_a and_o unheard_a of_o conjecture_n of_o you_o so_o that_o by_o read_v of_o your_o philosophy_n i_o have_v acquire_v thus_o much_o of_o advantage_n that_o where_o i_o can_v satisfy_v i_o shall_v be_v sure_a to_o delight_n which_o be_v somewhat_o more_o than_o i_o dare_v promise_n from_o any_o other_o discourse_n of_o the_o same_o title_n in_o so_o much_o as_o they_o general_o leave_v the_o mind_n in_o a_o kind_n of_o anxiety_n and_o regret_n when_o ever_o they_o fail_v to_o afford_v it_o satisfaction_n and_o certain_o if_o it_o be_v as_o some_o hold_v reasonable_a to_o allow_v that_o the_o fiction_n of_o poet_n and_o romancist_n do_v usual_o take_v as_o strong_a hold_n of_o man_n mind_n and_o charm_v their_o affection_n as_o powerful_o as_o the_o most_o authentic_a narration_n of_o historian_n though_o the_o reader_n well_o understand_v the_o passage_n relate_v by_o these_o to_o be_v certain_a truth_n and_o the_o adventure_n describe_v by_o those_o to_o be_v mere_o imaginary_a and_o this_o because_o delight_n be_v equal_a on_o both_o side_n if_o this_o i_o say_v be_v justifiable_a that_o man_n can_v run_v but_o little_a hazard_n of_o his_o judgement_n who_o shall_v affirm_v that_o your_o supposition_n of_o fairy_n in_o the_o brain_n and_o of_o our_o thought_n be_v their_o consults_z and_o suggestion_n and_o your_o opinion_n that_o the_o fairy_n dig_v for_o stone_n in_o the_o quarry_n of_o the_o tooth_n to_o repair_v their_o decay_a tenement_n in_o the_o head_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o toothache_n be_v as_o worthy_a the_o hear_n as_o the_o most_o solid_a demonstrative_a theory_n of_o any_o philosopher_n whatever_o insomuch_o as_o these_o may_v yield_v both_o as_o high_a and_o last_a a_o delight_n as_o that_o i_o say_v delight_n as_o high_a and_o last_a for_o to_o speak_v my_o thought_n clear_o the_o pleasure_n that_o arise_v from_o the_o comprehension_n of_o the_o most_o perfect_a and_o laborious_a demonstration_n in_o geometry_n i_o never_o can_v find_v either_o in_o height_n or_o duration_n much_o to_o exceed_v that_o which_o i_o have_v sometime_o be_v affect_v withal_o at_o the_o recital_n of_o a_o facetious_a poetical_a extravagancy_n of_o which_o i_o have_v not_o afore_o hear_v nor_o do_v i_o believe_v that_o the_o rapture_n and_o exultation_n of_o don_n quixot_n be_v much_o inferior_a to_o that_o famous_a one_o of_o archime_v which_o transport_v he_o out_o of_o himself_o as_o well_o as_o out_o of_o the_o bath_n into_o a_o loud_a exclamation_n i_o have_v find_v it_o i_o have_v find_v it_o and_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o equality_n may_v be_v well_o enough_o think_v to_o consist_v chief_o in_o the_o unsatisfiedness_n of_o our_o nature_n which_o always_o hurry_v our_o mind_n on_o to_o novelty_n cause_v we_o to_o put_v a_o equal_o cheap_a rate_n upon_o all_o thing_n we_o think_v already_o in_o the_o possession_n of_o our_o understanding_n and_o to_o value_v acquest_n of_o a_o fresh_a though_o perhaps_o useless_a and_o absurd_a opinion_n above_o the_o calm_a

much_o as_o one_o hour_n with_o any_o philosopher_n or_o profess_a scholar_n in_o your_o whole_a life_n and_o that_o doubtless_o must_v have_v proceed_v from_o your_o constant_a aversion_n to_o such_o
