and_o that_o on_o the_o contrary_a man_n lie_v at_o his_o length_n upon_o the_o water_n to_o swim_v be_v not_o in_o the_o posture_n in_o which_o he_o shall_v natural_o be_v and_o so_o have_v the_o

they_o continue_v above_o the_o water_n while_o other_o that_o be_v not_o so_o much_o lade_v but_o be_v much_o less_o do_v sink_v or_o else_o too_o one_o may_v rationnl_o say_v that_o beast_n do_v natural_o swim_v because_o they_o have_v for_o the_o most_o part_n a_o long_a neck_n than_o man_n so_o that_o although_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o body_n be_v heavy_a enough_o to_o sink_v under_o water_n yet_o in_o holdlng_v up_o their_o neck_n they_o take_v their_o breath_n at_o ease_n whereas_o man_n body_n be_v ready_a natural_o to_o sink_v under_o water_n as_o well_o as_o they_o he_o

if_o any_o demand_n of_o i_o why_o admiration_n make_v the_o hair_n to_o stand_v up_o right_o i_o answer_v that_o the_o soul_n have_v its_o faculty_n intent_n on_o the_o consideration_n of_o that_o

that_o which_o we_o acquire_v through_o more_o care_n be_v more_o dear_a to_o we_o or_o else_o be_v not_o a_o grandchild_n dear_a because_o it_o have_v be_v a_o long_a time_n desire_v or_o else_o do_v

one_o another_o and_o be_v incompatible_a instead_o of_o increase_v and_o mutual_o assist_v each_o other_o thus_o for_o example_n there_o be_v contrary_a joy_n for_o there_o be_v a_o certain_a

it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o many_o that_o feel_v within_o themselves_o most_o perfect_a pleasure_n and_o such_o as_o be_v very_o spiritual_a have_v in_o their_o countenance_n a_o air_n of_o

discourse_n which_o he_o intend_v to_o make_v upon_o humane_a vanity_n and_o misery_n be_v very_o far_o from_o increase_a that_n which_o the_o loss_n of_o a_o suit_n at_o law_n or_o the_o like_a have_v beget_v in_o he_o diminish_v it_o and_o instead_o of_o overcharge_v his_o spirit_n comfort_v it_o thus_o grief_n for_o a_o disgrace_n far_o from_o augment_v the_o weakness_n into_o which_o our_o soul_n be_v cast_v through_o a_o corporal_a grief_n serve_v many_o time_n to_o take_v from_o she_o the_o sense_n of_o it_o in_o a_o word_n it_o be_v easy_a to_o show_v that_o there_o be_v also_o

of_o poet_n and_o of_o lover_n themselves_o can_v but_o be_v of_o a_o nature_n more_o contrary_a to_o fraternal_a love_n which_o be_v altogether_o spiritual_a holy_a and_o serious_a and_o flow_v

these_o two_o several_a malignity_n be_v the_o effect_n only_o of_o the_o course_n of_o the_o year_n and_o of_o two_o contrary_a extreme_n for_o the_o sun_n in_o march_n have_v something_o of_o malign_v and_o dangerous_a by_o reason_n of_o the_o great_a humidity_n it_o meet_v with_o in_o the_o earth_n nay_o and_o in_o our_o brain_n on_o which_o it_o act_v so_o weak_o that_o instead_o of_o dissolve_v it_o only_o dilate_v it_o and_o on_o the_o contrary_a the_o sun_n in_o august_n be_v extraordinary_a hurtful_a through_o a_o excess_n of_o dryness_n which_o it_o find_v in_o the_o earth_n after_o it_o have_v endure_v the_o heat_n of_o a_o great_a part_n of_o summer_n and_o in_o our_o body_n which_o the_o same_o heat_n have_v dry_v it_o be_v this_o dryness_n which_o at_o this_o time_n dispose_v beast_n to_o madness_n though_o indeed_o dog_n run_v mad_a not_o only_o in_o august_n but_o also_o very_a often_o in_o the_o month_n of_o june_n and_o july_n or_o september_n which_o need_v not_o for_o this_o borrow_v any_o thing_n of_o the_o dog-star_n from_o this_o excessive_a dryness_n proceed_v likewise_o the_o weakness_n which_o we_o feel_v then_o in_o our_o body_n and_o the_o

to_o conclude_v if_o those_o that_o swim_v in_o this_o month_n do_v find_v that_o the_o water_n be_v more_o unwholesome_a than_o they_o be_v before_o a_o man_n may_v say_v it_o be_v because_o their_o more_o pure_a and_o subtle_a part_n have_v be_v exhale_v by_o the_o precedent_a heat_n and_o that_o what_o remain_v be_v gross_a and_o impure_a and_o i_o do_v not_o see_v that_o there_o be_v any_o
