be_v be_v they_o who_o change_n our_o temperature_n by_o their_o art_n of_o physic_n therefore_o the_o soul_n which_o be_v the_o essence_n of_o a_o living-creature_n can_v be_v the_o temperature_n neither_o be_v the_o soul_n a_o quality_n of_o the_o body_n for_o the_o quality_n of_o every_o body_n be_v subject_a to_o sense_n but_o the_o soul_n be_v not_o subject_a to_o sense_n but_o to_o understand_v only_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o a_o quality_n we_o know_v that_o this_o good_a temper_n of_o blood_n and_o spirit_n accompany_v with_o flesh_n and_o sinew_n and_o such_o other_o thing_n be_v strength_n and_o that_o the_o good_a temperature_n of_o hot_a and_o cold_a dry_a and_o moist_a thing_n be_v health_n and_o that_o the_o measurable_a proportion_n of_o the_o member_n with_o a_o fresh_a colour_n be_v cause_n of_o the_o beauty_n which_o be_v in_o the_o body_n now_o if_o the_o soul_n be_v a_o certain_a harmony_n of_o health_n and_o strength_n and_o beauty_n it_o must_v needs_o follow_v that_o man_n as_o long_o as_o he_o have_v a_o soul_n in_o he_o can_v neither_o be_v sick_a nor_o weak_a nor_o deform_v but_o we_o see_v by_o often_o experience_n that_o even_o while_o the_o living-soule_n continue_v in_o they_o many_o man_n be_v deprive_v not_o only_o of_o one_o but_o of_o all_o these_o good_a temperature_n insomuch_o that_o the_o very_a same_o man_n be_v deform_v and_o weak_a and_o sick_a all_o at_o once_o therefore_o the_o soul_n be_v not_o the_o good_a temperature_n of_o the_o body_n some_o will_v ask_v perhaps_o how_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v if_o the_o soul_n be_v not_o the_o temperature_n of_o the_o body_n that_o man_n be_v vicious_a or_o virtuous_a according_a to_o their_o natural_a constitution_n and_o complexion_n and_o they_o may_v demand_v also_o whether_o these_o thing_n proceed_v not_o from_o the_o temperature_n we_o answer_v that_o they_o do_v indeed_o proceed_v from_o the_o bodily_a temperature_n for_o as_o there_o be_v some_o natural_o healthful_a or_o sickly_a by_o reason_n of_o their_o constitution_n so_o othersome_a natural_o abound_v in_o bitter_a choler_n be_v froward_a and_o some_o other_o cowardly_a or_o

evident_o manifest_v that_o these_o temperature_n may_v be_v suppress_v now_o that_o which_o overcom_v be_v one_o thing_n and_o that_o which_o be_v overcome_v be_v another_o thing_n therefore_o the_o temperature_n be_v also_o one_o thing_n and_o the_o soul_n which_o be_v the_o vanquisher_n and_o orderer_n of_o inclination_n proceed_v from_o the_o temperature_n be_v another_o thing_n and_o not_o the_o same_o the_o body_n be_v a_o instrument_n which_o the_o soul_n use_v if_o it_o be_v well_o fit_v for_o the_o same_o be_v a_o helper_n unto_o the_o soul_n and_o she_o the_o better_a use_v it_o

aswell_o as_o the_o instrument_n even_o as_o a_o musician_n miss_v of_o true_a music_n when_o his_o harp_n be_v out_o of_o tune_n the_o soul_n therefore_o must_v be_v careful_a of_o the_o body_n and_o
