deformity_n in_o stead_n of_o beauty_n but_o if_o we_o consider_v only_o the_o beauty_n of_o the_o head_n and_o of_o the_o face_n thereof_o whereof_o we_o discourse_v yesterday_o we_o shall_v not_o find_v any_o one_o member_n that_o have_v not_o singular_a beauty_n in_o it_o and_o that_o agree_v not_o very_o fit_o with_o the_o rest_n be_v of_o so_o good_a proportion_n and_o measure_n and_o have_v such_o a_o great_a and_o excellent_a grace_n that_o a_o man_n may_v true_o say_v that_o the_o whole_a work_n have_v in_o each_o part_n thereof_o so_o great_a perfection_n that_o nothing_o can_v be_v add_v or_o take_v away_o nothing_o can_v be_v wish_v to_o make_v it_o more_o fair_a profitable_a excellent_a or_o perfect_a than_o it_o be_v in_o it_o own_o nature_n to_o the_o set_n forth_o of_o this_o beauty_n the_o nose_n whereof_o we_o be_v to_o speak_v serve_v very_o much_o yea_o so_o much_o that_o hardly_o any_o member_n in_o all_o the_o face_n or_o head_n so_o disfigure_v a_o man_n or_o make_v he_o more_o deform_v than_o the_o nose_n if_o it_o be_v evil_o favour_v disfigure_a or_o take_v clean_o away_o but_o beside_o this_o beauty_n which_o it_o bring_v to_o a_o man_n head_n we_o be_v to_o know_v that_o it_o be_v very_o serviceable_a to_o the_o whole_a body_n brain_n and_o chief_o to_o the_o brain_n lodge_v in_o the_o top_n thereof_o as_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n and_o master_n that_o as_o it_o give_v motion_n and_o sense_n to_o all_o the_o member_n so_o it_o may_v be_v compass_v about_o with_o all_o the_o sense_n as_o it_o be_v with_o servitor_n &_o man_n of_o guard_n therefore_o as_o it_o have_v near_o about_o it_o the_o eye_n ear_n tongue_n and_o palate_n which_o be_v the_o instrument_n of_o see_v hear_v and_o taste_v so_o the_o nose_n be_v needful_a to_o serve_v the_o sense_n of_o smell_v neither_o be_v it_o place_v so_o near_o the_o sense_n of_o taste_v without_o the_o great_a providence_n of_o god_n taste_v for_o there_o be_v many_o thing_n in_o nature_n which_o if_o they_o be_v taste_v only_o be_v deadly_a or_o at_o leastwise_o very_o dangerous_a and_o hurtful_a as_o appear_v chief_o in_o thing_n that_o be_v venomous_a and_o poisonful_a for_o this_o cause_n albeit_o the_o sense_n of_o smell_v be_v not_o altogether_o so_o necessary_a for_o live_a creature_n namely_o for_o such_o as_o be_v most_o perfect_a as_o the_o other_o sense_n so_o that_o they_o may_v more_o easy_o want_v it_o nevertheless_o god_n have_v give_v it_o they_o to_o the_o end_n it_o may_v be_v as_o it_o be_v a_o messenger_n to_o the_o taste_n to_o show_v what_o be_v good_a for_o it_o and_o what_o not_o and_o this_o chief_o for_o two_o reason_n the_o first_o be_v to_o keep_v man_n from_o hazard_v themselves_o through_o a_o immoderate_a desire_n to_o eat_v and_o drink_v before_o they_o have_v discern_v by_o the_o smell_n of_o such_o thing_n as_o be_v to_o be_v take_v whether_o they_o be_v profitable_a or_o hurtful_a for_o they_o the_o second_o reason_n be_v to_o take_v all_o suspicion_n and_o fear_n from_o they_o which_o otherwise_o may_v cause_v they_o to_o abstain_v from_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v good_a and_o profitable_a for_o they_o sense_n and_o therefore_o this_o sense_n of_o smell_v be_v near_o conjoin_v and_o have_v great_a agreement_n with_o the_o sense_n of_o taste_v for_o this_o be_v a_o general_a rule_n that_o albeit_o every_o thing_n that_o smell_v well_o have_v not_o always_o a_o good_a taste_n yet_o whatsoever_o a_o man_n find_v good_a to_o his_o taste_n the_o same_o have_v also_o a_o good_a smell_n and_o contrariwise_o that_o which_o be_v find_v to_o have_v a_o ill_a relish_n the_o same_o have_v also_o the_o like_a smell_n for_o the_o taste_n and_o smell_n be_v give_v not_o only_o for_o profit_n but_o for_o pleasure_n also_o and_o delight_v neither_o do_v those_o thing_n which_o serve_v for_o delectation_n always_o bring_v profit_n but_o sometime_o the_o contrary_a principal_o through_o their_o fault_n that_o know_v not_o how_o to_o use_v they_o moderate_o for_o they_o be_v so_o subject_a to_o their_o pleasure_n sense_n that_o they_o can_v never_o keep_v measure_n in_o anything_o as_o we_o see_v by_o experience_n especial_o in_o these_o two_o sense_n of_o taste_n and_o smell_v for_o as_o the_o ordinary_a meat_n satisfy_v not_o the_o delicate_a appetite_n of_o man_n but_o they_o must_v have_v new_a dainty_n daily_o invent_v to_o provoke_v their_o appetite_n further_o and_o to_o cause_v they_o to_o eat_v and_o drink_v more_o than_o be_v needful_a to_o their_o great_a hurt_n so_o man_n be_v not_o content_v with_o natural_a odour_n which_o nature_n bring_v forth_o of_o itself_o but_o now_o they_o must_v have_v musk_n and_o perfume_n with_o infinite_a variety_n of_o distil_a water_n and_o artificial_a smell_n in_o regard_n of_o which_o natural_a favour_n be_v nothing_o set_v by_o and_o yet_o if_o they_o be_v use_v with_o sobriety_n there_o be_v no_o cause_n of_o reprehension_n see_v all_o the_o creature_n of_o god_n be_v good_a if_o they_o be_v use_v moderate_o and_o a_o they_o ought_v with_o thanksgiving_n hereof_o it_o be_v that_o they_o be_v ofte_v mention_v in_o scripture_n in_o the_o good_a part_n and_o not_o to_o seek_v far_o off_o for_o example_n 3._o we_o have_v the_o testimony_n of_o the_o holy_a euamgelist_n as_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n himself_o who_o be_v neither_o nice_a nor_o voluptuous_a but_o the_o perfect_a pattern_n of_o all_o sobriety_n and_o temperance_n do_v not_o reject_v nor_o condemn_v precious_a ointment_n and_o sweet_a odour_n but_o sometime_o permit_v the_o use_n of_o they_o upon_o his_o own_o person_n odour_n moreover_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o the_o animal_n spirit_n in_o the_o brain_n be_v great_o relieve_v and_o recreate_v by_o those_o good_a and_o natural_a smell_n that_o be_v convey_v unto_o they_o by_o mean_n of_o the_o nose_n and_o of_o the_o sense_n of_o smell_v place_v therein_o as_o contrariwise_o they_o be_v great_o offend_v by_o evil_a odour_n yea_o oftentimes_o by_o artificial_a savour_n which_o common_o cause_n rheum_n catharre_n and_o great_a headache_n for_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o head_n be_v subtle_a pure_a and_o very_o neat_a so_o that_o sweet_a smell_n be_v good_a for_o they_o and_o stink_a savour_n contrary_a unto_o they_o to_o this_o end_n therefore_o that_o the_o brain_n may_v receive_v this_o benefit_n of_o good_a odour_n nose_n god_n have_v place_v both_o the_o sense_n and_o instrument_n of_o smell_v so_o near_o unto_o it_o the_o instrument_n to_o keep_v and_o convey_v odour_n unto_o it_o the_o sense_n to_o discern_v and_o judge_v of_o they_o therefore_o this_o sense_n of_o smell_v have_v some_o agreement_n both_o with_o the_o fire_n and_o with_o thick_a air_n because_o smell_n be_v stir_v up_o by_o heat_n as_o smoke_n be_v by_o fire_n which_o be_v after_o carry_v by_o mean_n of_o the_o air_n unto_o the_o sense_n and_o receive_v and_o keep_v by_o the_o nose_n forasmuch_o also_o as_o the_o brain_n need_v air_n to_o nourish_v and_o preserve_v the_o animal_n spirit_n the_o nose_n in_o this_o respect_n also_o stand_v it_o in_o great_a stead_n therefore_o god_n have_v create_v it_o not_o only_o to_o serve_v the_o sense_n of_o smell_v but_o also_o for_o respiration_n that_o it_o shall_v be_v the_o principal_a pipe_n and_o passage_n by_o which_o both_o the_o brain_n and_o lung_n may_v draw_v in_o or_o let_v out_o breathe_v as_o need_n require_v for_o this_o cause_n the_o brain_n do_v stretch_v out_o and_o restrain_v itself_o and_o as_o by_o stretch_v forth_o itself_o it_o draw_v in_o the_o air_n by_o the_o nostril_n so_o by_o keep_v itself_o close_a together_o it_o retain_v the_o air_n and_o so_o the_o external_a air_n be_v draw_v in_o by_o the_o nostril_n be_v distribute_v by_o the_o cranny_n that_o be_v open_a in_o the_o palate_n in_o such_o sort_n that_o the_o great_a part_n be_v draw_v into_o the_o lung_n and_o the_o residue_n go_v to_o the_o brain_n by_o the_o passage_n &_o hole_n that_o lead_v unto_o it_o and_o although_o the_o mouth_n serve_v also_o for_o respiration_n yet_o the_o nose_n be_v appoint_v more_o especial_o for_o that_o purpose_n and_o be_v much_o more_o fit_a and_o apt_a for_o the_o same_o therefore_o god_n have_v give_v it_o both_o matter_n and_o form_n agreeable_a for_o that_o office_n nose_n for_o first_o concern_v the_o matter_n it_o be_v not_o make_v all_o of_o bone_n nor_o all_o of_o gristle_n because_o if_o it_o be_v all_o of_o bone_n a_o double_a inconvenience_n will_v ensue_v thereof_o the_o first_o be_v that_o the_o bone_n will_v be_v in_o danger_n of_o break_v chief_o about_o the_o end_n of_o the_o nose_n when_o it_o shall_v hit_v against_o any_o hard_a thing_n because_o they_o will_v not_o bend_v and_o give_v
stay_n or_o rest_a place_n until_o they_o be_v come_v to_o those_o place_n which_o god_n have_v appoint_v for_o they_o plant_n cast_v their_o root_n downward_o and_o their_o branch_n upward_o every_o

and_o vein_n to_o suck_v and_o draw_v necessary_a sustenance_n for_o the_o preservation_n of_o itself_o send_v they_o always_o into_o the_o ground_n and_o disperse_v they_o all_o about_o according_a as_o they_o can_v find_v nourishment_n but_o the_o stalk_n stock_n branch_n and_o bough_n which_o be_v to_o be_v nourish_v in_o the_o air_n always_o disperse_v themselves_o draw_v and_o ascend_v upward_o beast_n have_v sense_n do_v much_o more_o show_v that_o like_n which_o they_o have_v to_o follow_v their_o natural_a inclination_n for_o we_o see_v that_o by_o their_o proper_a apprehension_n and_o appetite_n they_o be_v drive_v hither_o and_o thither_o to_o seek_v and_o follow_v after_o that_o which_o they_o desire_v and_o love_n be_v agreeable_a to_o their_o nature_n and_o to_o fly_v from_o that_o which_o they_o hate_v as_o be_v contrary_a thereunto_o likewise_o man_n who_o only_o of_o all_o other_o mortal_a creature_n be_v by_o creation_n make_v partaker_n of_o reason_n have_v their_o proper_a motion_n convenient_a to_o their_o nature_n for_o be_v create_v to_o attain_v to_o that_o sovereign_a and_o eternal_a good_a which_o be_v set_v before_o they_o in_o the_o divine_a

wherefore_o all_o man_n be_v natural_o prick_v and_o drive_v forward_o with_o a_o love_n and_o desire_n tend_v to_o that_o good_a aswell_o because_o of_o that_o natural_a agreement_n which_o they_o have_v with_o the_o same_o idea_n of_o good_a which_o be_v god_n their_o soul_n be_v of_o a_o celestial_a and_o immortal_a essence_n as_o also_o because_o this_o good_a be_v of_o that_o nature_n that_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v love_v of_o every_o nature_n yea_o so_o much_o the_o more_o love_a as_o there_o be_v great_a measure_n of_o reason_n in_o the_o creature_n to_o know_v it_o good_a but_o this_o desire_n natural_o ingraft_v in_o every_o man_n heart_n which_o provoke_v and_o keep_v man_n in_o a_o love_n and_o like_n of_o every_o thing_n which_o they_o think_v meet_v to_o content_v and_o

that_o can_v be_v perform_v by_o few_o otherwise_o there_o will_v be_v more_o hindrance_n than_o help_n and_o great_a loss_n than_o profit_n for_o this_o cause_n as_o god_n have_v not_o give_v to_o

but_o of_o some_o other_o thing_n before_o and_o above_o that_o or_o else_o far_o off_o unto_o which_o it_o tend_v we_o see_v this_o in_o all_o the_o sense_n both_o external_a and_o internal_a which_o

what_o other_o thing_n else_o do_v this_o signify_v and_o declare_v unto_o we_o but_o that_o the_o soul_n of_o beast_n be_v engender_v of_o this_o corruptible_a and_o mortal_a nature_n beyond_o

which_o be_v speak_v of_o a_o spring_n water_n namely_o that_o it_o ascend_v as_o much_o upwarde_a as_o it_o descend_v downward_o but_o can_v go_v no_o high_o for_o when_o a_o man_n will_v carry_v the_o water_n of_o a_o spring_n any_o whither_o and_o will_v have_v it_o mount_v upwarde_o it_o will_v be_v a_o easy_a matter_n to_o bring_v it_o as_o high_a as_o the_o springhead_n from_o whence_o

and_o so_o fare_v it_o with_o our_o spirit_n for_o as_o it_o come_v from_o god_n so_o it_o be_v able_a to_o mount_v again_o to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o he_o and_o no_o high_o but_o it_o descend_v a_o great_a deal_n low_o and_o as_o for_o our_o sense_n they_o remain_v low_a than_o the_o work_v of_o nature_n and_o pierce_v not_o to_o the_o depth_n of_o they_o but_o be_v always_o busy_v about_o the_o external_a face_n of_o they_o neither_o be_v it_o to_o be_v doubt_v but_o that_o moses_n mean_v to_o teach_v we_o these_o thing_n by_o that_o which_o he_o rehearse_v of_o the_o mean_v use_v by_o god_n in_o the_o creation_n of_o man_n which_o differ_v from_o that_o he_o keep_v in_o the_o creation_n of_o all_o other_o creature_n either_o live_n or_o without_o life_n for_o we_o have_v hear_v what_o

therefore_o in_o that_o the_o prophet_n describe_v the_o creation_n of_o the_o body_n apart_o and_o then_o that_o of_o the_o soul_n he_o give_v we_o to_o understand_v that_o we_o must_v seek_v for_o something_o more_o high_a and_o excellent_a in_o that_o of_o man_n then_o in_o that_o of_o beast_n who_o soul_n be_v create_v with_o their_o body_n and_o of_o the_o selfsame_o matter_n with_o they_o moreover_o he_o teach_v we_o this_o very_o plain_o when_o he_o say_v that_o god_n create_v man_n after_o his_o own_o image_n and_o similitude_n which_o he_o do_v not_o say_v of_o beast_n as_o we_o have_v already_o hear_v therefore_o there_o must_v needs_o be_v in_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n some_o other_o power_n and_o virtue_n then_o that_o by_o which_o it_o give_v life_n to_o the_o body_n and_o which_o be_v common_a to_o it_o with_o those_o of_o brute_n beast_n so_o that_o as_o god_n give_v to_o this_o dead_a body_n take_v out_o of_o the_o earth_n a_o soul_n that_o endue_v it_o with_o life_n motion_n and_o sense_n so_o he_o imprint_v and_o ingrave_v his_o image_n into_o this_o soul_n unto_o which_o immortality_n be_v annex_v soul_n therefore_o when_o moses_n say_v that_o man_n be_v make_v a_o live_a soul_n no_o doubt_n but_o by_o the_o name_n of_o soul_n he_o mean_v another_o nature_n and_o substance_n then_o that_o of_o the_o body_n and_o in_o that_o he_o call_v it_o live_v he_o declare_v plain_o that_o the_o body_n have_v not_o of_o itself_o and_o of_o it_o own_o nature_n that_o life_n wherewith_o it_o be_v endue_v but_o from_o the_o power_n of_o this_o soul_n and_o although_o he_o there_o make_v not_o any_o special_a mention_n of_o the_o other_o virtue_n thereof_o it_o be_v because_o he_o consider_v the_o capacity_n of_o the_o people_n with_o who_o he_o live_v unto_o who_o he_o will_v frame_v himself_o be_v content_a to_o speak_v open_o of_o that_o power_n of_o the_o soul_n which_o appear_v best_a without_o and_o which_o the_o external_a sense_n may_v most_o easy_o know_v &_o perceive_v by_o the_o effect_n thereof_o but_o i_o think_v it_o will_v not_o be_v unfit_a for_o this_o matter_n if_o we_o return_v to_o that_o question_n which_o before_o we_o touch_v concern_v the_o creation_n of_o the_o soul_n namely_o whether_o since_o it_o be_v create_v by_o god_n in_o the_o first_o creation_n of_o man_n it_o be_v still_o create_v after_o the_o same_o sort_n as_o it_o be_v by_o a_o new_a miracle_n in_o they_o that_o be_v daily_o bear_v in_o the_o world_n or_o whether_o it_o be_v natural_o create_v but_o yet_o of_o god_n by_o a_o certain_a order_n appoint_v for_o that_o end_n by_o he_o now_o albeit_o it_o be_v very_o requisite_a that_o we_o shall_v be_v sober_a and_o not_o rash_a in_o this_o matter_n for_o the_o cause_n already_o set_v down_o notwithstanding_o we_o will_v here_o propound_v the_o opinion_n of_o some_o learned_a man_n ground_v upon_o that_o order_n soul_n which_o god_n have_v accustom_v to_o observe_v in_o his_o work_n and_o in_o his_o creature_n for_o see_v he_o have_v set_v a_o law_n in_o nature_n for_o all_o other_o creature_n according_a to_o which_o he_o creat_v &_o produce_v they_o &_o not_o by_o any_o new_a miracle_n it_o be_v more_o likely_a that_o he_o creat_v soul_n natural_o and_o that_o he_o have_v ordain_v a_o steadfast_a law_n for_o mankind_n but_o differ_v from_o that_o of_o beast_n so_o much_o as_o his_o creation_n differ_v from_o they_o for_o have_v once_o establish_v a_o order_n he_o use_v not_o to_o change_v it_o into_o a_o diverse_a or_o contrary_a order_n but_o keep_v still_o the_o same_o except_o it_o be_v that_o sometime_o he_o use_v extraordinary_a mean_n by_o way_n of_o a_o miracle_n for_o although_o all_o his_o work_v be_v great_a miracle_n and_o chief_o man_n nevertheless_o be_v we_o call_v none_o by_o that_o name_n but_o only_o those_o which_o he_o woork_v by_o supernatural_a mean_n not_o against_o but_o beside_o the_o common_a order_n of_o nature_n but_o that_o which_o i_o say_v derogate_v nothing_o from_o the_o nature_n &_o immortality_n of_o man_n soul_n for_o although_o it_o be_v place_v in_o that_o matter_n which_o be_v already_o prepare_v and_o appropriate_v for_o the_o fashion_v of_o the_o body_n yet_o he_o do_v this_o above_o the_o virtue_n of_o the_o matter_n and_o of_o the_o work_n of_o nature_n by_o a_o law_n which_o he_o have_v establish_v to_o that_o effect_n for_o this_o cause_n he_o do_v not_o only_o give_v a_o soul_n to_o they_o that_o be_v beget_v by_o lawful_a marriage_n but_o to_o those_o also_o who_o be_v bring_v forth_o in_o whoredom_n whether_o it_o be_v adultery_n incest_n or_o any_o other_o such_o like_a for_o although_o that_o honesty_n which_o be_v enjoin_v mankind_n by_o god_n be_v not_o keep_v in_o such_o a_o birth_n and_o generation_n but_o contrari_v the_o same_o yet_o it_o be_v not_o contrary_a to_o the_o law_n of_o generation_n ordain_v by_o god_n as_o that_o generation_n be_v which_o be_v by_o buggery_n nature_n wherein_o not_o only_o the_o law_n of_o honesty_n be_v violate_v but_o also_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n we_o will_v conclude_v then_o that_o it_o be_v not_o only_o true_a that_o our_o soul_n be_v not_o bring_v forth_o by_o the_o power_n of_o nature_n but_o by_o the_o benefit_n of_o god_n only_o but_o also_o that_o it_o be_v expedient_a and_o very_a behooveful_a yea_o

for_o the_o fountain_n and_o fruit_n of_o the_o religion_n and_o service_n of_o god_n consist_v not_o in_o this_o mortal_a life_n and_o therefore_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v in_o some_o other_o that_o
