to_o the_o wise_a man_n of_o this_o world_n to_o dispute_v the_o holy_a truth_n of_o the_o christian_a religion_n the_o great_a part_n of_o mankind_n be_v so_o negligent_a and_o void_a of_o reason_n

people_n that_o search_v after_o truth_n and_o their_o opinion_n be_v usual_o follow_v without_o any_o examination_n therefore_o their_o error_n be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o dangerous_a because_o

therefore_o experimental_a philosophy_n be_v not_o to_o be_v find_v fault_n with_o nor_o they_o who_o make_v it_o their_o practice_n but_o only_o their_o defect_n the_o first_o be_v that_o they_o be_v

or_o know_v after_o they_o have_v spend_v much_o time_n and_o money_n the_o second_o be_v because_o they_o be_v more_o sedulous_a in_o curious_a and_o extraordinary_a experiment_n than_o such_o as_o

those_o before_o they_o settle_v to_o such_o as_o be_v more_o compound_v and_o which_o depend_v upon_o a_o great_a number_n of_o cause_n the_o three_o be_v because_o they_o prosecute_v those_o experiment_n that_o bring_v in_o profit_n and_o neglect_v those_o that_o serve_v to_o illuminate_v the_o mind_n the_o four_o be_v because_o they_o do_v not_o accurate_o enough_o observe_v all_o the_o particular_a circumstance_n of_o time_n place_n and_o quality_n of_o the_o drug_n which_o they_o make_v use_v of_o though_o the_o least_o of_o these_o circumstance_n be_v sufficient_a to_o frustrate_v the_o effect_n which_o they_o desire_v for_o it_o be_v to_o be_v observe_v that_o all_o the_o term_n of_o which_o the_o physician_n make_v use_v of_o be_v equivocal_a for_o example_n wine_n have_v as_o many_o various_a signification_n as_o there_o be_v variety_n of_o soil_n different_a season_n different_a manner_n of_o make_v wine_n and_o different_a manner_n of_o preserve_v it_o so_o that_o in_o general_n we_o may_v say_v that_o there_o be_v not_o two_o tun_n of_o wine_n altogether_o alike_o therefore_o when_o a_o physician_n in_o order_n to_o the_o make_v such_o a_o experiment_n say_v take_v wine_n no_o body_n know_v but_o very_o confuse_o what_o he_o mean_v therefore_o there_o be_v very_o great_a caution_n to_o be_v use_v in_o experiment_n nor_o ought_v they_o to_o attempt_v compound_v once_o till_o they_o know_v the_o reason_n of_o the_o more_o simple_a and_o common_a the_o five_o arise_v from_o hence_o that_o too_o many_o consequence_n be_v draw_v from_o one_o experiment_n whereas_o on_o the_o contrary_a we_o want_v several_a experiment_n to_o infer_v one_o true_a conclusion_n last_o the_o great_a part_n of_o physician_n and_o chemist_n consider_v only_o the_o particular_a effect_n of_o nature_n they_o never_o return_v to_o the_o first_o notion_n of_o thing_n that_o compose_v body_n nevertheless_o it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o no_o man_n can_v

that_o it_o be_v the_o sight_n of_o its_o happiness_n which_o produce_v in_o itself_o that_o sentiment_n of_o joy_n because_o the_o say_a sentiment_n always_o attend_v that_o sight_n it_o also_o
