so_o as_o in_o truth_n there_o must_v be_v some_o kind_n of_o reason_n to_o provoke_v choler_n for_o that_o man_n which_o be_v stupid_a &_o dull_a be_v not_o capable_a of_o these_o motion_n but_o when_o this_o passion_n be_v full_o inflame_v than_o she_o do_v whole_o darken_v reason_n and_o as_o the_o same_o philosopher_n say_v that_o they_o which_o be_v full_a of_o wine_n and_o drink_n be_v

which_o be_v take_v from_o the_o law_n of_o god_n who_o teach_v we_o nothing_o but_o patience_n charity_n mildness_n humanity_n and_o sufferance_n but_o we_o will_v rest_v satisfy_v to_o set_v down_o the_o instruction_n of_o philosophy_n which_o may_v serve_v to_o this_o effect_n first_o of_o all_o philosopher_n advise_v we_o to_o entreat_v this_o passion_n as_o they_o do_v monster_n and_o

be_v easy_a for_o he_o to_o suppress_v it_o and_o to_o stay_v her_o course_n but_o if_o she_o be_v once_o settle_v and_o begin_v to_o swell_v and_o that_o he_o himself_o blow_v the_o bellows_n that_o

wherefore_o as_o pilot_n foresee_v a_o tempest_n do_v usual_o retire_v themselves_o into_o a_o road_n or_o under_o the_o lee_n of_o some_o rock_n before_o the_o storm_n come_v so_o he_o that_o feel_v
