opinion_n these_o argument_n prove_v too_o much_o and_o that_o to_o give_v they_o their_o full_a force_n it_o weuld_v follow_v that_o i_o must_v needs_o be_v sorry_a for_o know_v any_o thing_n that_o surpass_v my_o understanding_n which_o yet_o be_v false_a because_o the_o goodness_n of_o judgement_n consist_v in_o be_v able_a to_o rest_v content_a with_o our_o condition_n and_o to_o put_v away_o those_o troublesome_a thought_n that_o serve_v only_a to_o afflict_v we_o especial_o when_o we_o know_v not_o how_o by_o any_o mean_n to_o remedy_v they_o there_o be_v something_o of_o solidity_n in_o thy_o answer_n reply_v he_o but_o yet_o it_o be_v weak_a in_o two_o particular_n the_o one_o be_v in_o suppose_v we_o be_v able_a to_o suspend_v our_o judgement_n and_o the_o other_o in_o think_v it_o possible_a we_o shall_v love_v ourselves_o without_o detest_a our_o dissolution_n to_o be_v able_a to_o do_v the_o first_o be_v to_o be_v able_a with_o open_a eye_n not_o to_o see_v what_o be_v continual_o before_o we_o and_o to_o be_v able_a to_o do_v the_o second_o be_v to_o love_v to_o be_v something_o without_o hate_v to_o be_v nothing_o it_o be_v a_o great_a weakness_n to_o imagine_v we_o can_v possible_o live_v without_o be_v deep_o affect_v with_o the_o sense_n of_o our_o own_o destruction_n and_o it_o be_v still_o a_o great_a to_o torment_v ourselves_o with_o the_o fear_n of_o what_o we_o know_v will_v infallible_o come_v upon_o we_o but_o it_o be_v the_o utmost_a degree_n of_o folly_n to_o seek_v after_o preservative_n in_o order_n to_o avoid_v what_o we_o know_v to_o be_v absolute_o inavoidable_a to_o be_v able_a to_o live_v without_o the_o sense_n of_o death_n be_v to_o be_v able_a to_o live_v without_o know_v any_o thing_n of_o ourselves_o since_o death_n be_v inseparable_a from_o our_o nature_n and_o that_o to_o consider_v ourselves_o in_o all_o our_o several_a part_n be_v to_o see_v we_o have_v nothing_o but_o what_o be_v mortal_a in_o we_o to_o be_v capable_a of_o fear_v death_n suppose_v we_o able_a to_o reconcile_v two_o contradiction_n since_o to_o fear_v suppose_v some_o doubt_n in_o we_o whether_o what_o we_o fear_v will_v happen_v or_o no_o and_o that_o we_o certain_o know_v we_o shall_v infallible_o die_v and_o it_o be_v still_o more_o absurd_a to_o go_v about_o to_o take_v any_o preservative_n to_o prevent_v it_o when_o we_o know_v that_o to_o be_v impossible_a i_o reply_v that_o we_o may_v just_o fear_v not_o death_n itself_o but_o its_o approach_n and_o that_o preservative_n be_v useful_a because_o they_o may_v at_o least_o stave_v it_o off_o from_o we_o for_o a_o while_n very_o good_a reply_v he_o again_o but_o do_v thou_o not_o see_v that_o since_o the_o necessity_n of_o die_v be_v indispensible_a and_o the_o put_v it_o off_o for_o a_o while_n can_v be_v of_o no_o other_o service_n to_o we_o than_o to_o keep_v we_o the_o long_a under_o continual_a pain_n grief_n and_o anguish_n i_o answer_v he_o that_o these_o reason_n will_v be_v of_o much_o more_o weight_n among_o our_o european_n than_o among_o they_o who_o know_v not_o what_o it_o be_v to_o suffer_v whereas_o the_o life_n of_o the_o european_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o continue_a chain_n of_o misery_n and_o suffering_n how_o say_v he_o have_v you_o any_o other_o infirmity_n than_o those_o of_o be_v mortal_a and_o know_v yourselves_o to_o be_v daily_o advance_v towards_o death_n yes_o i_o assure_v he_o that_o our_o people_n common_o die_v many_o death_n before_o they_o come_v to_o die_v for_o good_a and_o all_o and_o that_o death_n come_v not_o upon_o our_o european_n but_o by_o the_o violence_n of_o those_o disease_n that_o knock_v they_o down_o and_o make_v they_o at_o last_o faint_v away_o under_o they_o this_o answer_n be_v to_o he_o a_o mystery_n and_o as_o i_o be_v endeavour_v to_o make_v he_o comprehend_v our_o gout_n our_o headache_n and_o our_o colick_n i_o find_v he_o understand_v i_o not_o and_o therefore_o to_o make_v he_o apprehend_v my_o meaning_n i_o be_v force_v particular_o to_o explain_v to_o he_o the_o nature_n of_o some_o of_o those_o disease_n we_o suffer_v which_o assoon_o as_o he_o understand_v be_v it_o possible_a cry_v he_o that_o any_o one_o shall_v be_v in_o love_n with_o such_o a_o life_n as_o that_o i_o answer_v that_o our_o people_n do_v not_o only_o love_v it_o but_o use_v all_o manner_n of_o mean_n to_o prolong_v it_o from_o whence_o he_o take_v a_o fresh_a occasion_n to_o condemn_v we_o either_o for_o insensibility_n or_o extravagance_n not_o be_v able_a as_o he_o say_v to_o conceive_v how_o a_o reasonable_a man_n that_o be_v assure_v of_o his_o death_n and_o that_o see_v himself_o daily_o die_v by_o several_a sort_n of_o suffering_n and_o that_o can_v not_o protract_v his_o life_n but_o in_o continual_a languishment_n can_v possible_o forbear_v desire_v death_n as_o his_o great_a happiness_n our_o opinion_n in_o this_o matter_n be_v vast_o different_a say_v he_o from_o you_o for_o we_o assoon_o as_o we_o come_v to_o understand_v ourselves_o because_o we_o think_v ourselves_o oblige_v to_o love_v our_o own_o self_n and_o look_v upon_o ourselves_o but_o as_o so_o many_o victim_n of_o a_o superior_a cause_n that_o be_v able_a every_o moment_n to_o destroy_v we_o we_o therefore_o make_v very_o small_a account_n of_o our_o life_n and_o esteem_v it_o but_o as_o a_o happiness_n which_o we_o can_v enjoy_v but_o as_o a_o passenger_n whilst_o it_o be_v fleet_a and_o pass_v from_o we_o the_o time_n in_o which_o we_o enjoy_v it_o be_v burdensome_a to_o we_o because_o it_o serve_v for_o nothing_o but_o to_o raise_v in_o we_o a_o grief_n for_o the_o loss_n of_o that_o happiness_n which_o it_o more_o light_o take_v from_o we_o than_o at_o first_o it_o give_v it_o we_o in_o fine_a we_o be_v weary_a of_o live_v because_o we_o dare_v not_o fix_v our_o affection_n upon_o ourselves_o with_o all_o that_o tenderness_n we_o may_v otherwise_o have_v for_o fear_v of_o endure_v too_o great_a violence_n of_o reluctance_n when_o we_o shall_v be_v force_v to_o part_v from_o a_o be_v we_o have_v so_o much_o dote_v on_o to_o that_o i_o answer_v he_o that_o reason_n teach_v we_o that_o it_o be_v always_o better_a to_o be_v than_o not_o to_o be_v and_o that_o it_o be_v better_o to_o live_v though_o but_o for_o a_o day_n than_o never_o to_o live_v at_o all_o to_o which_o he_o reply_v that_o we_o be_v to_o distinguish_v two_o thing_n in_o our_o be_v one_o be_v our_o general_a existence_n that_o perish_v not_o and_o the_o other_o our_o particular_a existence_n or_o individuality_n that_o perish_v the_o first_o be_v indeed_o better_a than_o privation_n and_o that_o it_o be_v in_o that_o sense_n it_o be_v true_a that_o be_v be_v preferable_a before_o not_o be_v but_o that_o the_o second_o viz._n the_o be_v of_o our_o individuality_n or_o particular_a be_v be_v oftentimes_o worse_o than_o not_o be_v especial_o when_o it_o be_v accompany_v with_o a_o knowledge_n that_o render_v we_o unhappy_a i_o answer_v again_o that_o if_o be_v in_o general_n be_v better_a than_o not_o be_v it_o must_v needs_o follow_v that_o be_v likewise_o in_o particular_a be_v better_a than_o its_o privation_n but_o he_o satisfy_v i_o by_o propose_v to_o i_o the_o very_a state_n in_o which_o i_o have_v late_o be_v tell_v i_o i_o prithee_o say_v he_o when_o thou_o consider_v thy_o condition_n in_o the_o place_n of_o which_o thou_o tell_v we_o environ_v on_o all_o side_n by_o death_n can_v thou_o possible_o esteem_v thy_o life_n at_o that_o time_n a_o happiness_n and_o can_v thou_o value_v it_o better_o than_o nothing_o be_v it_o not_o true_a that_o the_o knowledge_n thou_o have_v serve_v then_o only_o to_o augment_v thy_o misery_n it_o be_v then_o to_o no_o purpose_n to_o maintain_v that_o knowledge_n that_o afflict_v i_o be_v not_o only_o no_o happiness_n to_o i_o but_o a_o unhappiness_n so_o much_o the_o more_o sensible_a as_o i_o know_v it_o the_o more_o perfect_o it_o be_v from_o that_o principle_n that_o flow_v our_o true_a misery_n that_o we_o know_v what_o we_o be_v and_o what_o we_o must_v be_v we_o know_v that_o we_o be_v noble_a and_o excellent_a being_n in_o a_o word_n worthy_a of_o a_o eternal_a duration_n and_o yet_o we_o see_v that_o for_o all_o our_o nobleness_n and_o excellence_n we_o depend_v of_o a_o thousand_o other_o creature_n that_o be_v inferior_a to_o we_o which_o be_v the_o cause_n we_o look_v upon_o ourselves_o as_o bweing_n that_o be_v bring_v up_o only_o to_o be_v
