i_o can_v not_o tell_v but_o this_o i_o see_v there_o die_v so_o many_o young_a y_fw-fr ●_o there_o remain_v but_o a_o few_o old_a soul_n now_o thou_o tell_v a_o pretty_a thing_n must_v not_o all_o die_v at_o length_n just_a well_o i_o will_v grant_v thou_o that_o old_a age_n have_v not_o more_o of_o these_o dangerous_a infirmity_n than_o have_v any_o other_o age_n but_o of_o certain_a cough_n catarrh_n palseis_fw-mi and_o other_o disease_n which_o young_a man_n have_v not_o and_o old_a man_n be_v full_a what_o say_v thou_o now_o soul_n i_o say_v unto_o thou_o that_o they_o rather_o come_v of_o themselves_o than_o of_o age_n just_a how_o so_o soul_n if_o thou_o consider_v well_o the_o life_n of_o such_o as_o now_o be_v or_o have_v be_v in_o that_o age_n thou_o shall_v know_v it_o of_o thyself_o for_o thou_o shall_v find_v they_o man_n which_o either_o not_o consider_v their_o age_n and_o how_o less_o their_o power_n be_v to_o that_o they_o be_v young_a they_o will_v drink_v and_o eat_v as_o much_o as_o they_o be_v wont_a or_o peradventure_o more_o whereby_o nature_n for_o that_o occasion_n not_o be_v able_a to_o make_v digestion_n gender_n in_o they_o that_o superfluity_n that_o cause_v these_o accident_n or_o else_o in_o their_o youth_n have_v make_v so_o many_o disorder_n y_z t_z they_o have_v get_v these_o evyls_n which_o show_v themselves_o in_o age_n when_o they_o be_v more_o weak_a of_o nature_n but_o a_o old_a man_n that_o consider_v well_o his_o virtue_n how_o much_o and_o what_o it_o be_v and_o live_v orderly_o thereunto_o eat_v and_o drynk_n only_o so_o much_o as_o may_v restore_v his_o strength_n and_o not_o oppress_v he_o will_v live_v much_o more_o hole_n than_o a_o young_a man_n and_o thou_o know_v i_o have_v many_o time_n teach_v thou_o what_o way_n to_o use_v in_o it_o just_a then_o if_o a_o old_a man_n will_v be_v hole_n he_o must_v mark_v so_o many_o thing_n as_o he_o shall_v lose_v all_o his_o contentation_n for_o so_o thou_o have_v confess_v of_o thyself_o that_o this_o other_o blame_n which_o we_o gyve_v to_o this_o age_n that_o it_o take_v away_o all_o pleasure_n be_v not_o give_v for_o naught_o soul_n let_v we_o proceed_v in_o order_n that_o thou_o may_v see_v thou_o have_v not_o yet_o catch_v i_o do_v thou_o not_o remember_v that_o that_o i_o have_v say_v a_o other_o time_n that_o eat_v and_o drink_n and_o other_o thing_n come_v of_o some_o lack_n be_v no_o pleasure_n but_o as_o a_o man_n have_v need_n for_o when_o he_o be_v suffice_v they_o be_v unpleasant_a to_o he_o just_a if_o these_o be_v no_o pleasure_n there_o be_v enough_o of_o other_o that_o be_v take_v from_o she_o that_o she_o may_v well_o be_v blame_v and_o without_o respect_n soul_n rather_o ought_v she_o to_o be_v praise_v most_o for_o if_o thou_o consider_v well_o she_o deprive_v only_o those_o that_o be_v reprovable_a in_o other_o age_n just_a that_o will_v not_o i_o grant_v for_o a_o man_n that_o can_v have_v no_o pleasure_n in_o the_o world_n be_v as_o though_o he_o be_v not_o soul_n true_a but_o what_o understand_v thou_o by_o pleasure_n just_a those_o delight_n which_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o world_n bring_v with_o they_o know_v thou_o not_o that_o thou_o be_v like_o one_o bear_v yesterday_o &_o yet_o there_o be_v many_o year_n since_o we_o first_o meet_v together_o soul_n if_o thou_o understand_v of_o those_o pleasure_n that_o eat_v and_o drink_n bring_v &_o idleness_n with_o those_o vain_a &_o wanton_a thought_n that_o proceed_v of_o it_o just_a of_o what_o think_v thou_o i_o mean_v of_o those_o that_o we_o have_v by_o fast_v or_o labour_n or_o waste_v ourselves_o with_o study_n as_o some_o fool_n do_v soul_n thou_o be_v much_o deceive_v rather_o i_o say_v unto_o thou_o that_o nature_n have_v not_o give_v to_o man_n as_o archita_n the_o tarentine_n pleasure_n say_v if_o thou_o remember_v of_o his_o life_n for_o i_o know_v thou_o haste_v red_a it_o oft_o a_o great_a nor_o more_o hurtful_a evil_a than_o pleasure_n and_o delight_n of_o the_o body_n just_a thou_o say_v so_o perhaps_o because_o the_o least_o part_n be_v thou_o soul_n rather_o because_o the_o truth_n be_v so_o whereof_o come_v for_o the_o most_o part_n treason_n of_o the_o country_n ruin_n of_o city_n enimity_n of_o man_n &_o other_o wickedness_n murder_n ravine_n of_o richesse_n and_o adultery_n but_o of_o volupt_a and_o delight_v which_o so_o much_o blind_a man_n with_o their_o entisement_n and_o allure_a that_o take_v from_o they_o the_o use_n of_o reason_n they_o he_o turn_v into_o beast_n just_a o_o reason_n yet_o it_o fear_v not_o they_o as_o thou_o do_v say_v soul_n there_o be_v no_o such_o enemy_n as_o pleasure_n which_o of_o good_a reason_n be_v call_v of_o wise_a man_n the_o bait_n of_o all_o evil_a for_o where_o the_o sense_n rule_v reason_n have_v no_o place_n no_o virtue_n be_v find_v in_o they_o that_o be_v give_v to_o the_o pray_v of_o their_o gorge_n to_o wine_n to_o sleep_v &_o those_o idleness_n of_o the_o which_o grow_v among_o we_o a_o thousand_o vain_a and_o unprofitable_a care_n which_o keep_v we_o always_o after_o with_o our_o face_n to_o the_o earth_n like_o the_o brute_n beast_n which_o lack_v reason_n think_v thou_o then_o that_o age_n be_v to_o be_v blame_v when_o she_o defend_v we_o from_o great_a enemy_n ▪_o take_v from_o they_o that_o force_n wherewith_o they_o offend_v just_a if_o it_o be_v as_o thou_o say_v but_o grant_v there_o be_v one_o man_n that_o have_v no_o pleasure_n be_v not_o he_o in_o deed_n as_o he_o be_v not_o alive_a or_o as_o a_o thing_n wtout_fw-fr sense_n soul_n yes_o but_o she_o take_v not_o all_o always_o from_o man_n but_o only_o those_o that_o be_v common_a with_o other_o beast_n just_a then_o what_o be_v they_o y_z e_z remain_z soul_n all_o they_o that_o be_v proper_o meet_v for_o man_n and_o be_v permit_v be_v by_o reason_n which_o principal_o be_v those_o delight_n that_o be_v take_v of_o operation_n which_o rise_v in_o a_o man_n of_o those_o part_n that_o hava_fw-la in_o they_o divinenesse_n just_a which_o be_v those_o soul_n all_o the_o speculation_n and_o exercise_n virtuous_a just_a if_o i_o shall_v always_o be_v occupy_v in_o like_a thing_n after_o thou_o my_o servitude_n shall_v be_v too_o great_a thou_o know_v sometime_o i_o will_v have_v some_o comfort_n soul_n i_o will_v not_o deny_v thou_o it_o so_o that_o thou_o pass_v not_o reasonable_a term_n but_o i_o will_v say_v unto_o thou_o that_o delight_n that_o be_v take_v in_o eat_v and_o drink_v and_o talk_v withthy_a friend_n be_v much_o more_o acceptable_a to_o old_a age_n than_o to_o the_o other_o age_n just_a what_o be_v the_o cause_n soul_n because_o there_o be_v in_o old_a man_n more_o moderate_a appetite_n they_o fall_v not_o into_o drunkenness_n or_o any_o other_o alteration_n of_o the_o mind_n as_o young_a man_n do_v which_o have_v their_o will_n disordinate_a if_o they_o have_v not_o in_o their_o youth_n make_v then selue_o worse_o further_o they_o know_v to_o reason_n of_o more_o thing_n and_o better_a by_o the_o mean_a of_o time_n and_o experience_n and_o better_o enjoy_v the_o conversation_n of_o man_n &_o with_o much_o more_o sweetness_n embrace_v the_o presence_n of_o they_o than_o young_a man_n do_v for_o of_o their_o peer_n they_o be_v honour_v and_o of_o their_o less_o they_o be_v reverence_v which_o thing_n br_v they_o no_o small_a delight_n just_a if_o they_o have_v see_v many_o thing_n they_o remember_v few_o because_o memory_n in_o that_o age_n diminish_v much_o soul_n yea_o in_o they_o that_o exercise_v it_o not_o which_o be_v a_o vice_n of_o manner_n not_o of_o age_n as_o in_o many_o of_o they_o to_o be_v suspicious_a to_o be_v covetous_a tedious_a prayser_n of_o time_n past_a estemer_n of_o himself_o more_o than_o other_o and_o other_o like_a want_n but_o when_o she_o lose_v any_o of_o her_o strength_n there_o increase_v so_o much_o for_o it_o in_o wit_n and_o judgement_n that_o they_o supply_v full_o for_o her_o the_o fruit_n which_o bring_v much_o more_o pleasure_n to_o old_a man_n than_o do_v armure_v horse_n hunt_n dance_n and_o such_o other_o that_o delight_n young_a man_n of_o the_o pleasure_n of_o venus_n i_o will_v not_o reason_n see_v there_o be_v nothing_o cause_v more_o error_n in_o man_n than_o it_o but_o these_o thing_n that_o i_o speak_v just_o come_v
