of_o the_o soul_n so_o as_o if_o we_o shall_v give_v the_o name_n of_o passion_n to_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o understanding_n or_o of_o the_o will_n it_o be_v by_o a_o kind_n of_o improper_a and_o figurative_a speech_n allude_v to_o the_o passion_n of_o the_o sense_n with_o the_o which_o they_o have_v some_o resemblance_n the_o reason_n why_o passion_n be_v not_o find_v in_o the_o rational_a part_n of_o the_o soul_n be_v for_o that_o this_o part_n do_v not_o employ_v any_o corporeal_a organ_n in_o her_o action_n and_o that_o her_o office_n be_v not_o to_o alter_v or_o bring_v any_o change_n unto_o the_o body_n the_o which_o notwithstanding_o be_v a_o action_n which_o do_v accompany_v the_o passion_n inseparable_o but_o see_v they_o be_v not_o to_o be_v find_v in_o any_o other_o part_n of_o the_o soul_n but_o in_o the_o sensitive_a appetite_n there_o rise_v here_o a_o great_a question_n whether_o this_o appetite_n shall_v be_v divide_v into_o the_o irascible_a &_o concupiscible_a or_o desire_a power_n as_o into_o two_o different_a and_o distinct_a power_n or_o whether_o it_o make_v but_o one_o power_n of_o both_o the_o common_a opinion_n be_v that_o as_o their_o object_n be_v diverse_a so_o they_o be_v two_o distinct_a power_n whereof_o the_o reason_n be_v gather_v by_o that_o which_o experience_n do_v show_v we_o in_o all_o other_o thing_n subject_a to_o corruption_n for_o we_o see_v in_o other_o corruptible_a creature_n that_o they_o have_v not_o only_o a_o inclination_n and_o power_n to_o seek_v after_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v fit_a and_o convenient_a for_o they_o and_o to_o fly_v those_o which_o may_v hurt_v or_o annoy_v they_o but_o moreover_o they_o have_v another_o faculty_n or_o power_n to_o resist_v and_o fight_v against_o that_o which_o may_v cross_v their_o action_n or_o destroy_v their_o be_v as_o for_o example_n fire_n be_v not_o only_o endue_v with_o lightness_n to_o fly_v up_o high_a but_o it_o have_v also_o receive_v heat_n from_o nature_n by_o mean_n whereof_o it_o do_v resist_v and_o fight_v against_o any_o thing_n that_o be_v contrary_a to_o his_o action_n in_o like_a manner_n it_o be_v necessary_a for_o the_o good_a of_o man_n that_o he_o shall_v have_v two_o kind_n of_o inclination_n the_o one_o to_o pursue_v those_o thing_n which_o be_v please_a &_o agreeable_a to_o the_o sense_n and_o to_o avoid_v those_o which_o may_v any_o way_n annoy_v he_o and_o this_o we_o call_v the_o concupiscible_a or_o desire_a power_n and_o the_o other_o by_o mean_n whereofhee_o may_v encounter_v and_o vanquish_v whatsoever_o oppose_v itself_o cross_v his_o inclination_n or_o that_o tend_v to_o the_o destruction_n of_o his_o be_v or_o the_o decay_n of_o his_o contentment_n which_o be_v that_o we_o call_v the_o irascible_a or_o angry_a power_n this_o differ_v from_o the_o concupiscible_a for_o that_o the_o concupiscible_a tend_v to_o the_o sensible_a good_a absolúte_o consider_v and_o without_o any_o cross_n whereas_o the_o irascible_a do_v always_o aim_v at_o the_o good_a which_o be_v environ_v with_o some_o difficulty_n the_o which_o she_o strive_v to_o vanquish_v to_o the_o end_n she_o may_v take_v all_o obstacle_n from_o the_o concupiscible_a power_n which_o across_o her_o content_n and_o hinder_v she_o from_o enjoy_v the_o good_a which_o she_o desire_v to_o attain_v unto_o so_o as_o the_o irascible_a be_v as_o a_o sword_n and_o target_n to_o the_o concupiscible_a for_o that_o she_o combat_n for_o her_o content_n and_o resist_v any_o thing_n that_o may_v cross_v she_o there_o be_v many_o thing_n prove_v that_o they_o be_v two_o different_a and_o distinct_a power_n for_o as_o mathematician_n have_v note_v diverse_a apparent_a irregularity_n in_o the_o planet_n and_o observe_v that_o they_o seem_v sometime_o to_o hasten_v their_o course_n and_o sometime_o to_o slack_v it_o sometime_o they_o stand_v as_o it_o be_v fix_v and_o sometime_o to_o return_v back_o in_o the_o zodiaque_fw-la sometime_o they_o seem_v near_o to_o the_o earth_n &_o sometime_o they_o appear_v far_o off_o they_o have_v hold_v it_o necessary_a to_o multiply_v their_o heaven_n and_o to_o give_v they_o many_o to_o avoid_v all_o disorder_n in_o these_o excellent_a body_n of_o the_o universe_n in_o like_a manner_n the_o diversity_n of_o passion_n in_o man_n the_o contrary_a motion_n &_o desire_n wherewith_o his_o soul_n be_v toss_v have_v let_v philosopher_n understand_v that_o there_o be_v in_o he_o not_o only_o a_o concupiscible_a power_n but_o also_o a_o irascible_a for_o that_o many_o time_n we_o have_v a_o desire_n of_o that_o which_o we_o strive_v against_o and_o resist_v with_o vehemency_n and_o if_o we_o suffer_v ourselves_o to_o be_v vanquish_v we_o be_v grieve_v as_o he_o who_o desire_v to_o see_v the_o body_n of_o such_o as_o have_v be_v execute_v suppress_v this_o desire_n and_o divert_v his_o eye_n from_o this_o infamous_a spectacle_n yet_o suffer_v himself_o to_o be_v vanquish_v by_o his_o curiosity_n and_o have_v cast_v his_o eye_n thereon_o witness_v his_o grief_n and_o sorrow_n which_o remain_v to_o have_v give_v so_o brutish_a a_o contentment_n to_o his_o eye_n whereby_o it_o appear_v that_o desire_n and_o anger_n be_v two_o diverse_a faculty_n see_v that_o one_o power_n be_v not_o carry_v at_o one_o instant_a to_o contrary_a desire_n and_o we_o find_v in_o ourselves_o that_o often_o time_n we_o be_v incline_v to_o angry_a passion_n &_o be_v not_o much_o move_v with_o those_o of_o the_o concupiscible_a or_o to_o the_o contrary_n in_o like_a manner_n there_o be_v creature_n which_o have_v desire_n but_o no_o motion_n of_o choler_n as_o for_o example_n sheep_n pigeon_n and_o turtle_n make_v show_v to_o have_v impression_n of_o desire_n and_o yet_o there_o appear_v in_o they_o no_o sign_n of_o anger_n so_o as_o to_o observe_v their_o disposition_n well_o we_o may_v call_v in_o question_n that_o which_o aristotle_n say_v that_o there_o be_v no_o creature_n but_o have_v some_o touch_n of_o choler_n final_o we_o may_v observe_v that_o sometime_o the_o irascible_a make_v we_o to_o pursue_v thing_n which_o be_v absolute_o contrary_a to_o the_o concupiscible_a as_o when_o with_o the_o hazard_n of_o life_n which_o be_v so_o dear_a and_o precious_a to_o all_o creature_n we_o seek_v to_o revenge_v ourselves_o of_o a_o powerful_a enemy_n which_o have_v wrong_v us._n for_o this_o revenge_n which_o put_v our_o life_n in_o danger_n can_v proceed_v from_o the_o same_o power_n which_o desire_v passionate_o to_o preserve_v it_o and_o so_o the_o irascible_a and_o concupiscible_a be_v two_o different_a power_n and_o there_o be_v no_o part_n of_o passion_n proper_o take_v but_o in_o these_o two_o sensitive_a faculty_n which_o be_v one_o of_o the_o thing_n we_o gather_v from_o the_o definition_n we_o have_v give_v it_o appear_v also_o by_o the_o same_o definition_n that_o the_o passion_n of_o our_o soul_n shall_v always_o be_v follow_v with_o a_o sensible_a alteration_n in_o the_o body_n by_o the_o impression_n of_o the_o sensitive_a appetite_n touch_v with_o the_o imagination_n of_o good_a or_o evil_n which_o present_v itself_o and_o here_o first_o we_o must_v not_o wonder_v if_o the_o ●oule_n do_v impart_v her_o motion_n and_o cause_v such_o great_a alteration_n in_o the_o body_n see_v that_o the_o body_n do_v impart_v his_o pain_n when_o as_o it_o suffer_v any_o violence_n for_o if_o it_o be_v lay_v on_o the_o rack_n break_v on_o a_o wheel_n or_o cast_v into_o the_o fire_n the_o soul_n groan_v under_o the_o burden_n of_o his_o torment_n the_o which_o happen_v for_o that_o be_v unite_v as_o form_n and_o matter_n and_o make_v but_o one_o body_n which_o grow_v from_o their_o union_n of_o necessity_n all_o thing_n must_v be_v common_a unto_o they_o except_o those_o thing_n which_o repugn_v and_o can_v agree_v with_o their_o particular_a nature_n and_o therefore_o by_o a_o certain_a contagion_n they_o communicate_v their_o passion_n one_o unto_o another_o but_o in_o this_o subject_n there_o be_v a_o strong_a reason_n for_o the_o which_o the_o soul_n excite_v these_o alteration_n in_o the_o body_n by_o her_o passion_n that_o be_v to_o say_v for_o that_o the_o soul_n do_v not_o only_o reside_v in_o the_o body_n as_o the_o form_n but_o do_v preside_v there_o in_o quality_n of_o the_o move_a cause_n by_o mean_n whereof_o she_o do_v change_n and_o alter_v it_o at_o her_o will_n for_o as_o the_o intellectual_a power_n which_o move_v a_o heaven_n apply_v her_o virtue_n to_o move_v it_o make_v it_o to_o change_v place_n and_o draw_v it_o from_o east_n to_o west_n or_o from_o west_n to_o east_n even_o so_o the_o soul_n which_o have_v a_o move_a power_n command_v over_o the_o body_n change_v his_o natural_a disposition_n and_o by_o her_o agitation_n pull_v he_o from_o his_o rest_n wherein_o he_o be_v before_o she_o trouble_v he_o in_o this_o
his_o desire_n and_o intention_n but_o whence_o come_v the_o power_n which_o this_o passion_n have_v thus_o to_o unite_v the_o subject_n where_o it_o work_v this_o can_v well_o be_v explicate_v without_o the_o aid_n of_o philosophy_n first_o of_o all_o love_n say_v the_o philosopher_n be_v a_o desire_n to_o enjoy_v the_o good_a we_o propound_v unto_o ourselves_o as_o proper_a for_o our_o content_n and_o capable_a to_o make_v we_o in_o some_o sort_n better_o by_o the_o fruition_n but_o this_o enjoy_n &_o participation_n can_v be_v effect_v but_o by_o unite_n the_o object_n to_o our_o affection_n which_o be_v the_o same_o good_a we_o propound_v unto_o ourselves_o wherefore_o it_o be_v of_o the_o essence_n of_o love_n that_o it_o produce_v this_o union_n hence_o it_o proceed_v that_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o party_n belove_v be_v so_o dear_a and_o precious_a unto_o we_o and_o that_o we_o feel_v ourselves_o fill_v with_o content_n when_o as_o we_o may_v enjoy_v he_o to_o entertain_v our_o thought_n to_o taste_v the_o sweetness_n of_o his_o company_n and_o to_o discover_v our_o passion_n whereas_o his_o absence_n and_o separation_n give_v we_o a_o thousand_o torment_n and_o afflict_v we_o with_o a_o thousand_o sorrow_n and_o discontent_n which_o we_o will_v redeem_v with_o our_o life_n wherefore_o when_o as_o death_n do_v take_v violent_o from_o we_o those_o who_o we_o love_v dear_o and_o by_o this_o mean_n have_v condemn_v we_o as_o it_o be_v to_o a_o perpetual_a absence_n we_o strive_v to_o ease_v our_o grief_n and_o sweeten_v our_o loss_n by_o transport_v ourselves_o often_o to_o the_o place_n where_o we_o be_v accustom_v to_o see_v they_o represent_v unto_o ourselves_o their_o portract_n and_o image_n read_v over_o their_o letter_n &_o still_o handle_v all_o the_o gauge_n and_o monument_n they_o leave_v we_o of_o their_o affection_n sometime_o the_o same_o gauge_n and_o the_o same_o momument_n of_o their_o affection_n displease_v we_o and_o we_o do_v so_o abhor_v they_o as_o we_o can_v endure_v to_o see_v they_o nor_o handle_v they_o but_o this_o grow_v from_o the_o grief_n of_o their_o absence_n for_o that_o we_o then_o represent_v they_o as_o infallible_a sign_n of_o our_o loss_n which_o they_o figure_n unto_o we_o as_o irreparable_a by_o reason_n whereof_o their_o picture_n fill_v we_o with_o bitterness_n but_o on_o the_o other_o side_n when_o as_o the_o same_o thing_n seem_v unto_o we_o to_o supply_v the_o presence_n we_o love_v they_o dear_o and_o can_v be_v weary_a to_o entertain_v ourselves_o with_o those_o thought_n and_o if_o amid_o all_o this_o we_o can_v invent_v any_o thing_n that_o may_v serve_v to_o preserve_v the_o memory_n more_o lively_a in_o our_o soul_n we_o embrace_v the_o invention_n and_o

live_v separate_v the_o most_o subtle_a philosopher_n give_v a_o second_o reason_n of_o this_o union_n which_o arise_v from_o love._n love_n say_v they_o have_v her_o feat_n in_o the_o will_v they_o do_v not_o consider_v it_o as_o a_o passion_n only_o which_o rise_v in_o the_o sense_n but_o also_o as_o a_o quality_n which_o in_o the_o end_n become_v spiritual_a but_o there_o be_v this_o difference_n betwixt_o the_o understanding_n and_o will_n the_o understanding_n go_v not_o out_o of_o itself_o to_o join_v with_o his_o object_n but_o rather_o he_o draw_v the_o object_n unto_o he_o whereof_o the_o image_n be_v frame_v to_o produce_v his_o action_n like_v unto_o a_o seal_n which_o print_v its_o form_n in_o the_o wax_n but_o the_o will_n be_v touch_v with_o the_o love_n of_o her_o

by_o his_o love_n have_v no_o other_o passion_n but_o to_o see_v herself_o unite_v unto_o she_o but_o these_o meditation_n be_v too_o nice_a for_o our_o subject_n the_o second_o effect_n they_o attribute_v to_o love_n and_o which_o be_v as_o it_o be_v a_o branch_n and_o bud_n of_o the_o first_o be_v that_o it_o cause_v the_o soul_n of_o he_o that_o love_v to_o be_v more_o where_o it_o love_v than_o where_o it_o live_v and_o that_o reciprocal_o the_o soul_n of_o the_o party_n belove_v be_v more_o with_o the_o lover_n then_o with_o his_o own_o body_n the_o reason_n be_v for_o that_o the_o soul_n of_o such_o as_o love_v be_v perpetual_o attentive_a to_o contemplate_v the_o image_n of_o that_o they_o love_v and_o have_v no_o other_o think_n nor_o great_a pleasure_n then_o that_o they_o receive_v by_o this_o sweet_a entertainment_n by_o reason_n whereof_o the_o soul_n make_v show_n of_o a_o more_o exact_a presence_n where_o it_o do_v most_o frequent_o work_v it_o follow_v thereby_o that_o it_o be_v more_o with_o the_o party_n belove_v then_o in_o its_o own_o body_n but_o let_v we_o hear_v the_o opinion_n of_o the_o platonician_o upon_o this_o point_n the_o soul_n say_v they_o which_o be_v touch_v to_o the_o quick_a with_o love_n die_v in_o i●s_n own_o body_n find_v life_n in_o that_o it_o love_v and_o when_o this_o love_n be_v reciprocal_a it_o die_v but_o once_o whereas_o it_o revive_v twice_o for_o he_o that_o love_v die_v true_o when_o as_o love_n make_v he_o neglect_v and_o forget_v the_o cause_n of_o his_o life_n to_o think_v whole_o upon_o the_o party_n belove_v but_o he_o recover_v his_o life_n double_o when_o as_o he_o see_v himself_o embrace_v and_o entertain_v by_o the_o party_n belove_v and_o that_o he_o find_v in_o his_o arm_n his_o dear_a image_n which_o he_o preserve_v more_o careful_o than_o his_o own_o life_n who_o will_v not_o then_o say_v they_o hold_v this_o death_n happy_a which_o be_v recompense_v by_o two_o such_o sweet_a life_n but_o this_o discourse_n of_o the_o platonician_o presuppose_v a_o equal_a correspondency_n in_o love_n without_o the_o which_o they_o maintain_v that_o this_o passion_n be_v full_a of_o despair_n &_o leave_v nothing_o in_o our_o soul_n but_o importune_a and_o troublesome_a thorn_n wherefore_o the_o ancient_n say_v that_o to_o make_v love_n grow_v she_o have_v need_n of_o a_o brother_n but_o we_o have_v treat_v sufficient_o of_o this_o subject_n they_o attribute_v other_o effect_n to_o love_n that_o be_v to_o say_v languish_n ecstasy_n and_o amazement_n but_o that_o love_n must_v be_v very_o violent_a which_o do_v produce_v they_o and_o moreover_o we_o may_v consider_v these_o ecstasy_n and_o ravish●ments_n which_o may_v happen_v in_o a_o violent_a love_n after_o two_o sort_n first_o we_o may_v observe_v they_o as_o a_o true_a alienation_n of_o the_o sense_n which_o arise_v for_o that_o the_o spirit_n and_o will_n of_o he_o that_o love_v be_v whole_o employ_v in_o the_o contemplation_n and_o enjoy_n of_o the_o thing_n belove_v suffer_v himself_o to_o be_v so_o transport_v with_o this_o content_n as_o the_o soul_n remain_v as_o it_o be_v quench_v and_o without_o motion_n the_o which_o may_v also_o proceed_v from_o a_o more_o powerful_a cause_n that_o be_v to_o say_v either_o from_o god_n or_o from_o evil_a spirit_n which_o sometime_o stir_v up_o these_o ravishment_n and_o extraordinary_a ecstasy_n second_o we_o may_v consider_v these_o ecstasy_n &_o ravishment_n as_o a_o kind_n of_o madness_n which_o transport_v they_o that_o love_n and_o make_v they_o to_o commit_v many_o folly_n wherefore_o a_o ancient_n say_v that_o jupiter_n himself_o can_v not_o be_v wise_a and_o love_n at_o one_o instant_n these_o ecstasy_n and_o ravishment_n produce_v sometime_o prodigious_a effect_n in_o their_o soul_n that_o be_v afflict_v with_o this_o passion_n for_o that_o his_o soul_n that_o love_v entire_o be_v perpetual_o employ_v in_o the_o contemplation_n of_o the_o

a_o violent_a passion_n of_o the_o soul_n entertain_v by_o some_o sensible_a discontent_n or_o else_o grief_n be_v a_o torment_n of_o the_o mind_n and_o body_n or_o again_o grief_n be_v a_o passion_n of_o the_o mind_n afflict_v by_o some_o kind_n of_o evil_n which_o present_v it_o self_n or_o to_o describe_v it_o more_o particular_o grief_n be_v a_o passion_n of_o the_o soul_n which_o rise_v

second_o the_o cause_n of_o this_o grief_n be_v not_o always_o solid_a nor_o true_a but_o many_o time_n they_o be_v vain_a and_o imaginary_a for_o that_o we_o do_v frame_v or_o rather_o forge_v to_o
