questionless_a for_o some_o good_a end_n for_o god_n and_o nature_n work_v not_o by_o chance_n or_o without_o respect_v some_o benefit_n of_o the_o subject_n to_o the_o which_o question_n it_o may_v be_v answer_v first_o passion_n why_o humour_n flock_v to_o the_o heart_n in_o passion_n that_o the_o humour_n concur_v to_o help_v dispose_n and_o enable_v the_o heart_n to_o work_v such_o operation_n for_o as_o we_o prove_v by_o experience_n if_o a_o man_n sleep_n with_o open_a eye_n although_o his_o sight_n be_v marvellous_a excellent_a yet_o he_o see_v nothing_o because_o in_o sleep_n the_o pure_a spirit_n be_v recall_v into_o the_o inner_a part_n of_o the_o body_n leave_v the_o eye_n destitute_a of_o spirit_n and_o abandon_v of_o force_n which_o present_o in_o wake_v return_n again_o even_o so_o i_o conceive_v the_o heart_n prepare_v by_o nature_n to_o digest_v the_o blood_n send_v from_o the_o liver_n yet_o for_o divers_a respect_n not_o to_o have_v the_o temperature_n which_o all_o passion_n require_v for_o love_n will_v have_v heat_n and_o sadness_n cold_a fear_n constringe_v and_o pleasure_n dilate_v the_o heart_n therefore_o which_o be_v to_o be_v

blood_n may_v quick_o change_v the_o temperature_n and_o render_v it_o more_o apt_a for_o a_o melancholy_a passion_n the_o second_o reason_n may_v be_v for_o that_o these_o humour_n affect_v the_o heart_n cause_n pain_n or_o pleasure_n thereby_o invite_v nature_n to_o prosecute_v the_o good_a that_o please_v and_o to_o fly_v the_o evil_a that_o annoy_v as_o in_o the_o commonwealth_n virtue_n
