the_o essential_a cause_n of_o valour_n and_o undantedness_n and_o therefore_o it_o may_v very_o well_o be_v that_o the_o largeness_n of_o the_o heart_n be_v a_o natural_a cause_n of_o undantedness_n man_n that_o tall_a and_o burly_a man_n be_v common_o less_o valorous_a than_o short_a and_o middle_a stasture_v man_n divers_a man_n be_v of_o opinion_n that_o tall_a and_o burly_a body_a man_n be_v

have_v reason_n to_o be_v of_o that_o opinion_n but_o it_o be_v common_o small_a because_o nature_n extend_v its_o virtue_n to_o the_o utmost_a part_n deprive_v the_o inward_a part_n of_o it_o beside_o all_o the_o vital_a spirit_n reside_v in_o the_o blood_n and_o in_o the_o heart_n and_o by_o its_o motion_n they_o be_v disperse_v through_o all_o the_o part_n of_o the_o body_n now_o the_o
