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

in_o the_o strength_n of_o the_o body_n and_o that_o some_o of_o all_o stature_n may_v be_v valiant_a and_o undaunted_a the_o first_o accidental_a cause_n may_v be_v the_o innocency_n of_o man_n and_o
