almost_o comprehend_v every_o thing_n but_o if_o any_o one_o shall_v ask_v i_o what_o it_o be_v i_o shall_v find_v myself_o much_o to_o seek_v i_o do_v not_o wonder_v at_o it_o say_v the_o chevalier_n for_o a_o thing_n of_o so_o large_a a_o extent_n look_v too_o many_o way_n and_o have_v too_o many_o appearance_n and_o shadow_n to_o be_v express_v in_o two_o or_o three_o word_n those_o who_o say_v that_o honesty_n consist_v in_o live_v and_o die_v well_o only_o vary_v the_o term_n without_o clear_v the_o question_n beside_o if_o one_o shall_v not_o die_v he_o may_v notwithstanding_o by_o live_v be_v a_o honest_a man_n nay_o he_o may_v by_o that_o mean_n make_v a_o great_a progress_n therein_o to_o have_v a_o more_o distinct_a knowledge_n of_o it_o we_o may_v look_v upon_o it_o in_o itself_o separate_v from_o all_o other_o thing_n that_o be_v not_o of_o it_o or_o foreign_a to_o it_o and_o consider_v it_o by_o all_o sort_n of_o light_n tell_v i_o what_o you_o believe_v of_o it_o say_v the_o mareshal_n i_o shall_v be_v glad_a to_o see_v whether_o we_o have_v the_o same_o thought_n in_o a_o thing_n of_o this_o consequence_n i_o know_v say_v the_o chevalier_n that_o you_o must_v needs_o understand_v it_o right_o because_o you_o make_v use_v of_o it_o always_o as_o your_o guide_n and_o if_o that_o idea_n which_o i_o have_v of_o it_o be_v good_a it_o must_v without_o doubt_n be_v conformable_a to_o you_o for_o perfect_a honesty_n be_v always_o the_o same_o in_o what_o subject_n soever_o it_o be_v find_v although_o the_o difference_n of_o time_n and_o fortune_n make_v it_o appear_v very_o different_o but_o under_o whatever_o form_n it_o show_v itself_o it_o always_o please_v and_o by_o that_o it_o may_v principal_o be_v know_v for_o the_o true_a agreement_n come_v not_o from_o a_o simple_a superficial_a or_o a_o slight_a appearance_n but_o from_o a_o great_a stock_n of_o wit_n or_o merit_n which_o mingle_v and_o show_v itself_o in_o all_o that_o one_o say_v and_o in_o all_o the_o action_n of_o one_o life_n it_o seem_v to_o i_o that_o it_o affect_v not_o to_o make_v a_o mystery_n of_o any_o thing_n that_o as_o it_o avoid_v all_o extreme_n it_o endeavour_v not_o to_o hide_v nor_o to_o show_v itself_o its_o first_o appearance_n have_v not_o so_o much_o lustre_n as_o either_o to_o dazzle_v or_o to_o surprise_v people_n but_o when_o we_o come_v to_o consider_v she_o we_o find_v that_o it_o have_v so_o much_o grace_n in_o every_o thing_n that_o be_v offer_v of_o good_a or_o ill_a of_o serious_a or_o pleasant_a that_o one_o will_v think_v that_o all_o thing_n be_v alike_o to_o it_o and_o agreeable_a and_o if_o there_o be_v any_o part_n so_o disadvantageous_a that_o it_o will_v be_v impossible_a for_o the_o grace_n themselves_o to_o act_v they_o well_o it_o

of_o another_o that_o it_o be_v always_o ready_a to_o help_v those_o that_o be_v so_o it_o make_v all_o those_o who_o depend_v upon_o it_o happy_a so_o far_o as_o fortune_n permit_v and_o if_o it_o be_v not_o in_o its_o power_n to_o do_v that_o at_o least_o it_o make_v no_o body_n sad_a it_o be_v careful_a to_o avoid_v that_o even_o in_o the_o small_a thing_n if_o it_o jest_v sometime_o its_o

that_o there_o be_v still_o something_o beyond_o what_o it_o can_v pretend_v to_o it_o seek_v no_o false_a advantage_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a if_o occasion_n offer_v not_o itself_o we_o must_v many_o time_n guess_v at_o that_o which_o be_v best_a in_o it_o it_o be_v own_o interest_n delude_v it_o not_o and_o if_o it_o so_o happen_v that_o a_o honest_a man_n be_v accuse_v although_o his_o life_n be_v aim_v at_o he_o make_v not_o use_v of_o all_o sort_n of_o argument_n and_o reason_n to_o defend_v himself_o but_o that_o little_a he_o say_v make_v every_o body_n regret_n that_o they_o offend_v he_o represent_v to_o yourself_o socrates_n scipio_n or_o some_o other_o of_o that_o rank_n for_o i_o observe_v that_o those_o people_n be_v as_o it_o be_v above_o fortune_n at_o least_o they_o be_v not_o transport_v with_o prosperity_n and_o what_o misfortune_n soever_o attacqu_v they_o although_o they_o be_v never_o hear_v to_o say_v that_o their_o virtue_n do_v not_o forsake_v they_o yet_o we_o may_v find_v that_o they_o have_v more_o than_o enough_o to_o support_v they_o i_o find_v that_o honesty_n always_o judge_n well_o although_o it_o be_v very_o cautious_a in_o decide_v it_o prefer_v choice_n before_o abundance_n and_o have_v more_o care_n of_o be_v neat_a and_o cleanly_a than_o rich_o dress_v and_o value_v those_o thing_n that_o be_v least_o in_o sight_n more_o than_o those_o that_o be_v soon_o discover_v do_v you_o not_o take_v notice_n likewise_o that_o it_o have_v more_o regard_n to_o merit_v than_o to_o fortune_n that_o it_o be_v not_o subject_a to_o be_v prejudice_v against_o any_o body_n that_o which_o disorder_v narrow_a soul_n surprise_v it_o very_o little_a and_o the_o opinion_n of_o the_o world_n hinder_v it_o not_o from_o understand_v the_o true_a value_n of_o thing_n i_o believe_v it_o depend_v but_o little_a either_o upon_o time_n or_o place_n and_o that_o he_o who_o can_v attain_v so_o far_o as_o to_o be_v a_o honest_a worthy_a man_n in_o his_o cottage_n will_v be_v the_o same_o in_o all_o the_o the_o court_n of_o the_o world_n but_o there_o be_v many_o thing_n necessary_a to_o the_o be_v a_o worthy_a honest_a man_n and_o although_o some_o may_v pass_v for_o such_o at_o the_o court_n of_o great_a prince_n we_o must_v not_o therefore_o conclude_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o want_v in_o they_o unless_o they_o can_v be_v so_o every_o where_o and_o among_o all_o sort_n of_o people_n many_o observation_n may_v be_v make_v if_o any_o one_o will_v enlarge_v upon_o this_o subject_a but_o to_o conclude_v it_o be_v observe_v that_o honesty_n have_v this_o in_o it_o it_o leave_v a_o kind_n and_o tender_a remembrance_n always_o of_o itself_o in_o those_o who_o have_v once_o know_v it_o and_o carry_v itself_o so_o that_o every_o body_n be_v very_o glad_a to_o have_v oblige_v it_o but_o now_o after_o all_o this_o a_o lady_n who_o be_v perfect_o handsome_a and_o of_o so_o please_v a_o wit_n and_o humour_n that_o even_o the_o handsome_a lady_n can_v not_o choose_v but_o love_v she_o ask_v i_o what_o a_o honest_a man_n be_v and_o a_o honest_a woman_n for_o the_o expression_n be_v proper_a to_o both_o and_o when_o i_o tell_v she_o my_o opinion_n of_o it_o and_o that_o she_o herself_o have_v discourse_v very_o rational_o of_o it_o she_o confess_v that_o she_o think_v all_o that_o which_o i_o tell_v she_o be_v very_o necessary_a for_o the_o be_v that_o which_o she_o have_v ask_v but_o yet_o there_o be_v something_o more_o which_o be_v unexplainable_a and_o be_v better_o know_v by_o practice_n than_o by_o expression_n which_o as_o she_o imagine_v consist_v in_o i_o know_v not_o what_o of_o nobleness_n that_o heighten_v all_o the_o good_a quality_n and_o which_o proceed_v only_o from_o the_o

of_o please_v and_o that_o it_o be_v a_o infallible_a proof_n of_o honesty_n it_o seem_v to_o i_o that_o people_n very_o often_o succeed_v in_o that_o as_o well_o by_o ill_a way_n as_o by_o good_a nay_o and_o with_o more_o choice_n and_o splendour_n to_o that_o say_v the_o chevalier_n one_o may_v answer_v in_o two_o word_n that_o there_o be_v some_o person_n who_o understand_v true_a merit_n and_o that_o it_o be_v a_o good_a sign_n when_o one_o please_v they_o but_o there_o be_v many_o more_o who_o judge_v not_o well_o and_o for_o those_o we_o have_v no_o great_a cause_n to_o rejoice_v when_o we_o be_v so_o agreeable_a to_o they_o howsoever_o it_o be_v say_v the_o mareshal_n to_o examine_v honesty_n well_o whether_o we_o consider_v it_o in_o itself_o or_o in_o those_o thing_n that_o
