that_o they_o doubt_v and_o then_o we_o have_v reason_n to_o say_v that_o apparent_o they_o doubt_v that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o they_o appear_v to_o we_o to_o doubt_v but_o not_o that_o their_o

to_o be_v as_o a_o cessation_n or_o rest_n otherwise_o whosoever_o will_v not_o know_v the_o thing_n and_o who_o spirit_n be_v dull_a and_o without_o action_n may_v pass_v for_o a_o man_n who_o be_v

be_v say_v be_v true_a or_o false_a but_o the_o most_o evident_a and_o perhaps_o the_o most_o ordinary_a cause_n of_o this_o defect_n be_v when_o the_o mind_n be_v divide_v betwixt_o two_o reason_n

speech_n since_o there_o be_v animal_n which_o be_v dumb_a which_o forbear_v not_o to_o have_v internal_a speech_n thus_o internal_a speech_n be_v not_o inseparable_a from_o external_a as_o he_o say_v thus_o the_o consequence_n which_o he_o draw_v from_o so_o ill_a a_o ratiocination_n can_v but_o be_v very_o ill_a beast_n which_o run_v to_o the_o cry_n of_o other_o know_v it_o to_o be_v a_o mean_n to_o call_v they_o the_o example_n he_o produce_v in_o pursuit_n to_o prove_v that_o when_o beast_n run_v to_o the_o cry_n of_o other_o they_o know_v not_o that_o this_o cry_n be_v a_o mean_n or_o that_o it_o be_v use_v to_o call_v they_o these_o example_n i_o say_v do_v not_o conclude_v better_o than_o the_o rest_n of_o his_o reason_n for_o beside_o that_o they_o be_v draw_v from_o another_o gender_n of_o thing_n than_o those_o we_o speak_v of_o and_o which_o consequent_o can_v decide_v the_o matter_n in_o question_n some_o do_v suppose_v that_o judgement_n and_o ratiocination_n can_v be_v make_v without_o time_n which_o we_o have_v already_o demonstrate_v be_v not_o always_o necessary_a and_o from_o the_o rest_n we_o can_v infer_v nothing_o but_o that_o the_o judgement_n and_o the_o discourse_n of_o the_o understanding_n concur_v not_o to_o the_o action_n of_o beast_n which_o be_v a_o useless_a and_o ridiculous_a consequence_n since_o all_o the_o world_n know_v that_o they_o want_v understanding_n in_o effect_n the_o first_o example_n be_v of_o a_o man_n who_o go_v to_o see_v his_o friend_n with_o a_o intention_n to_o laugh_v with_o he_o find_v his_o eye_n in_o fire_n and_o his_o face_n awry_o for_o this_o sight_n surprise_v and_o stop_v they_o before_o he_o have_v time_n to_o discourse_n and_o so_o much_o as_o to_o judge_v that_o he_o be_v in_o wrath_n but_o he_o presuppose_v as_o we_o have_v say_v that_o such_o a_o man_n must_v have_v time_n to_o judge_v and_o to_o reason_n which_o be_v nothing_o necessary_a for_o at_o the_o very_a moment_n he_o see_v the_o mark_n of_o anger_n he_o may_v judge_v and_o conclude_v that_o his_o friend_n be_v angry_a indeed_o he_o may_v doubt_v whether_o those_o mark_n proceed_v from_o that_o passion_n and_o so_o may_v suspend_v his_o judgement_n but_o it_o will_v still_o be_v true_a that_o he_o reason_v forasmuch_o as_o to_o doubt_v a_o man_n must_v reason_v and_o have_v reason_n on_o both_o side_n which_o must_v hold_v the_o mind_n in_o suspense_n the_o second_o be_v of_o those_o who_o know_v the_o sweetness_n of_o some_o person_n mind_n forbear_v not_o when_o they_o accost_v they_o to_o resent_v some_o straint_n which_o the_o severity_n of_o their_o countenance_n cause_v for_o say_v he_o this_o constraint_n be_v not_o a_o effect_n of_o their_o judgement_n no_o more_o than_o the_o respect_n which_o at_o first_o we_o have_v for_o a_o man_n of_o a_o good_a mind_n or_o well_o apparel_v although_o we_o know_v that_o his_o inside_n be_v not_o answerable_a to_o his_o appearance_n nor_o to_o his_o clothes_n it_o be_v not_o indeed_o the_o understanding_n which_o judge_v and_o conclude_v upon_o the_o occasion_n it_o be_v the_o imagination_n which_o let_v itself_o be_v win_v by_o appearance_n and_o thereby_o judge_v of_o thing_n for_o since_o that_o see_v a_o man_n of_o a_o good_a mind_n we_o find_v ourselves_o as_o it_o be_v oblige_v to_o be_v civil_a to_o he_o it_o be_v a_o consequence_n draw_v from_o what_o appear_v to_o our_o eye_n now_o it_o be_v not_o the_o understanding_n which_o judge_v so_o as_o m._n c._n will_v have_v it_o it_o must_v needs_o therefore_o be_v the_o imagination_n so_o that_o this_o example_n serve_v for_o nothing_o but_o to_o show_v that_o beast_n perform_v aim_n which_o the_o understanding_n do_v not_o contribute_v unto_o because_o it_o exclude_v not_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o imagination_n but_o only_o that_o of_o the_o superior_a part_n which_o be_v not_o here_o in_o question_n the_o three_o be_v of_o a_o child_n which_o cry_v when_o the_o nurse_n show_v it_o a_o sour_a look_n without_o judge_v thereby_o that_o she_o be_v in_o a_o ill_a humour_n and_o threaten_v it_o its_o sufficient_a that_o the_o gesture_n be_v extraordinary_a and_o that_o all_o that_o be_v extraordinary_a astonish_v the_o imagination_n and_o anger_v it_o but_o it_o be_v not_o sufficient_a thus_o crude_o and_o indigent_o to_o advance_v thing_n he_o shall_v prove_v that_o this_o child_n make_v no_o judgement_n for_o i_o hold_v absolute_o the_o contrary_a for_o that_o he_o can_v cry_v without_o resent_v the_o motion_n of_o some_o

she_o imagine_v it_o to_o be_v so_o and_o in_o pursuit_n that_o she_o do_v not_o the_o action_n with_o the_o circumstance_n we_o have_v observe_v in_o several_a place_n of_o the_o three_o part_n of_o this_o work_n which_o she_o can_v never_o do_v without_o reason_v as_o we_o have_v show_v in_o those_o place_n and_o therefore_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o the_o child_n which_o cry_n must_v not_o only_o make_v judgement_n but_o also_o must_v needs_o reason_n for_o although_o m.c._n say_v that_o it_o be_v sufficient_a if_o the_o nurse_n gesture_n be_v extraordinary_a to_o this_o child_n and_o that_o all_o what_o be_v extraordinary_a astonish_v the_o imagination_n and_o anger_v it_o i_o shall_v confess_v although_o this_o require_v a_o restriction_n there_o be_v many_o thing_n which_o be_v extraordinary_a to_o child_n which_o anger_v they_o not_o but_o this_o be_v to_o fall_v again_o on_o the_o same_o difficulty_n because_o there_o extraordinary_a thing_n anger_v not_o the_o

the_o passion_n be_v contagious_a than_o there_o need_v but_o one_o sad_a person_n in_o a_o company_n to_o make_v they_o all_o of_o the_o same_o humour_n and_o that_o as_o joy_n make_v a_o man_n
