up_o and_o down_o we_o say_v they_o be_v affect_v and_o alter_v according_a to_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o see_v and_o which_o be_v next_o unto_o us._n as_o for_o example_n we_o perceive_v i_o know_v

lion_n fly_v from_o the_o cock_n but_o it_o be_v by_o a_o kind_n of_o antipathy_n whereof_o we_o have_v former_o speak_v by_o which_o also_o the_o elephant_n do_v fly_v from_o the_o hog_n and_o the_o

than_o the_o lion_n it_o happen_v that_o the_o lion_n perceive_v it_o do_v present_o fly_v from_o he_o as_o the_o valiant_a hector_n be_v say_v to_o fly_v before_o achilles_n who_o be_v more_o brave_a and_o more_o warlike_a than_o he_o or_o else_o it_o be_v because_o the_o cock_n be_v a_o celestial_a fowl_n and_o the_o lion_n a_o terrestrial_a creature_n and_o of_o a_o grosser_n matter_n have_v the_o spirit_n more_o sensitive_a and_o brutal_a then_o the_o other_o do_v therefore_o by_o nature_n yield_v and_o give_v place_n to_o that_o which_o be_v more_o excellent_a and_o this_o reason_n
