they_o seem_v bitter_a bitterness_n and_o sweetness_n in_o fruit_n differ_v then_o only_o as_o to_o the_o more_o or_o less_o and_o that_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o some_o person_n think_v they_o

we_o consider_v that_o thought_n be_v to_o the_o soul_n what_o extension_n be_v to_o the_o body_n we_o shall_v plain_o discover_v that_o as_o a_o body_n can_v be_v true_o more_o extend_v at_o one_o

or_o even_o in_o the_o time_n that_o we_o say_v we_o think_v on_o nothing_o at_o all_o but_o the_o reason_n why_o we_o imagine_v we_o think_v more_o at_o one_o time_n than_o another_o be_v because_o we_o do_v not_o sufficient_o distinguish_v between_o confuse_a and_o distinct_a perception_n without_o doubt_n there_o be_v more_o thought_n require_v or_o the_o capacity_n of_o think_v be_v more_o fit_v to_o perceive_v many_o thing_n distinct_o at_o once_o than_o to_o perceive_v but_o one_o only_a but_o there_o be_v not_o more_o thought_n requisite_a to_o perceive_v many_o thing_n confuse_o than_o to_o perceive_v one_o distinct_o so_o there_o be_v no_o more_o thought_n in_o the_o soul_n when_o it_o think_v of_o many_o thing_n than_o when_o it_o think_v of_o but_o one_o since_o when_o it_o think_v of_o but_o one_o only_o it_o always_o perceive_v it_o much_o more_o clear_o than_o when_o it_o apply_v itself_o to_o many_o for_o it_o must_v be_v observe_v that_o a_o pure_a simple_a perception_n sometime_o include_v as_o much_o thought_n or_o fill_v as_o much_o the_o capacity_n that_o the_o mind_n have_v of_o think_v as_o a_o judgement_n nay_o even_o a_o compound_a reason_v since_o experience_n teach_v we_o that_o a_o lively_a clear_a and_o evident_a perception_n but_o of_o one_o thing_n only_o employ_v and_o take_v up_o the_o mind_n as_o much_o as_o a_o compound_v reason_v or_o a_o obscure_a and_o confuse_a perception_n of_o several_a relation_n between_o many_o thing_n for_o even_o as_o there_o be_v as_o much_o or_o more_o sensation_n in_o the_o sensible_a view_n of_o a_o object_n that_o i_o hold_v near_o my_o eye_n and_o careful_o examine_v as_o in_o the_o prospect_n of_o a_o whole_a field_n that_o i_o look_v upon_o negligent_o and_o without_o

have_v of_o many_o thing_n that_o i_o see_v without_o attention_n in_o a_o field_n thus_o the_o prospect_n the_o mind_n have_v of_o one_o object_n only_o be_v sometime_o so_o lively_a and_o distinct_a that_o it_o include_v as_o much_o or_o even_o more_o thought_n than_o a_o prospect_n of_o the_o relation_n which_o be_v between_o many_o thing_n it_o be_v true_a at_o certain_a time_n it_o seem_v to_o

the_o true_a good_a and_o make_v useless_a the_o motion_n which_o god_n imprint_n on_o we_o now_o when_o we_o love_v any_o particular_a good_a only_a or_o against_o order_n we_o receive_v from_o god_n as_o great_a a_o impression_n of_o love_n as_o if_o we_o stop_v not_o at_o this_o good_n moreover_o this_o particular_a determination_n which_o be_v neither_o necessitate_v nor_o invincible_a be_v also_o give_v we_o of_o god_n therefore_o when_o we_o sin_n we_o produce_v no_o new_a modification_n in_o ourselves_o however_o i_o confess_v when_o we_o do_v not_o sin_n but_o resist_v temptation_n we_o may_v say_v in_o one_o sense_n that_o we_o give_v ourselves_o a_o new_a modification_n because_o we_o will_v think_v of_o other_o thing_n than_o on_o the_o false_a good_n which_o tempt_v we_o but_o what_o we_o then_o do_v be_v produce_v by_o the_o action_n which_o god_n impress_n on_o we_o that_o be_v by_o our_o motion_n towards_o good_a in_o general_n or_o by_o our_o will_n assist_v by_o

observe_v that_o that_o action_n that_o god_n perform_v in_o we_o depend_v upon_o we_o and_o be_v not_o invincible_a in_o respect_n to_o particular_a good_n for_o when_o a_o particular_a good_a be_v present_v to_o we_o we_o have_v a_o internal_a sensation_n of_o our_o liberty_n in_o respect_n to_o it_o as_o we_o have_v of_o our_o pleasure_n and_o pain_n when_o we_o feel_v it_o we_o be_v even_o convince_v of_o our_o freedom_n by_o the_o same_o reason_n that_o we_o be_v convince_v of_o our_o existence_n for_o it_o be_v the_o internal_a sensation_n we_o have_v of_o our_o thought_n which_o

we_o be_v free_a because_o we_o have_v no_o clear_a idea_n of_o our_o liberty_n we_o must_v also_o doubt_v of_o our_o pain_n and_o existence_n at_o the_o time_n even_o when_o we_o be_v very_o

these_o always_o deceive_v we_o in_o something_o when_o we_o follow_v their_o information_n but_o our_o internal_a sensation_n never_o deceive_v we_o it_o be_v by_o my_o external_a sense_n that_o i_o

not_o to_o doubt_v whether_o we_o be_v free_a in_o respect_n to_o this_o good_n yet_o as_o we_o have_v not_o always_o this_o internal_a sensation_n and_o sometime_o only_o consult_v what_o remain_v of_o it_o in_o our_o memory_n after_o a_o very_a confuse_a manner_n we_o may_v think_v of_o the_o abstract_a reason_n which_o hinder_v we_o from_o feel_v ourselves_o persuade_v that_o it_o be_v not_o

the_o internal_a sensation_n he_o have_v of_o it_o do_v not_o actual_o convince_v he_o of_o the_o contrary_n he_o may_v prove_v as_o seneca_n have_v do_v by_o reason_n that_o in_o one_o sense_n be_v

convince_v we_o that_o we_o be_v free_a we_o may_v persuade_v ourselves_o of_o it_o by_o reason_n for_o be_v convince_v by_o reason_n that_o god_n only_a act_n for_o himself_o and_o that_o he_o can_v give_v we_o any_o motion_n which_o tend_v not_o towards_o he_o the_o impression_n towards_o good_a in_o general_n may_v be_v invincible_a but_o it_o be_v plain_a the_o impression_n he_o give_v we_o towards_o particular_a good_n must_v necessary_o be_v free_a for_o if_o this_o impression_n be_v invincible_a we_o shall_v not_o have_v any_o motion_n to_o go_v to_o god_n although_o he_o give_v we_o

through_o our_o own_o default_n and_o god_n will_v be_v true_o the_o cause_n of_o our_o irregularity_n since_o they_o will_v not_o be_v free_a but_o pure_o natural_a and_o absolute_o necessary_a thus_o although_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v convince_v of_o our_o liberty_n by_o the_o internal_a sensation_n we_o have_v of_o ourselves_o we_o may_v by_o reason_n discover_v that_o its_o necessary_a that_o man_n shall_v be_v create_v free_a suppose_v that_o he_o be_v capable_a of_o desire_v particular_a good_n and_o that_o he_o can_v desire_v these_o good_n only_o by_o the_o impression_n or_o

any_o pain_n to_o discover_v that_o we_o have_v this_o capacity_n there_o be_v no_o other_o way_n but_o internal_a sensation_n and_o yet_o no_o one_o doubt_v but_o man_n be_v subject_a to_o pain_n as_o we_o know_v not_o our_o soul_n by_o a_o clear_a idea_n as_o i_o have_v elsewhere_o explain_v it_o will_v be_v in_o vain_a for_o we_o to_o try_v to_o discover_v what_o it_o be_v in_o we_o which_o terminate_v the_o action_n that_o god_n imprint_n on_o we_o or_o what_o it_o be_v in_o we_o which_o be_v overcome_v by_o a_o determination_n that_o be_v not_o invincible_a and_o that_o may_v be_v

therefore_o that_o we_o must_v consult_v to_o convince_v ourselves_o that_o we_o be_v free_a it_o answer_v we_o clear_o enough_o when_o we_o actual_o propose_v any_o particular_a good_a to_o

of_o harken_v to_o our_o internal_a sensation_n we_o give_v attention_n to_o abstract_a reason_n which_o divert_v we_o from_o think_v of_o ourselves_o it_o may_v be_v we_o may_v even_o lose_v the_o

this_o be_v what_o we_o learn_v by_o experience_n that_o be_v by_o the_o inward_a sensation_n we_o have_v of_o ourselves_o therefore_o we_o may_v conceive_v that_o the_o first_o man_n have_v by_o

that_o neither_o the_o preingage_v sensation_n which_o adam_n feel_v in_o the_o use_n of_o the_o good_n of_o the_o body_n nor_o the_o joy_n which_o he_o find_v in_o consider_v his_o happiness_n or_o

child_n shall_v be_v bear_v sinner_n and_o liable_a like_v they_o to_o the_o motion_n of_o concupiscence_n these_o be_v my_o reason_n x._o i_o have_v prove_v at_o large_a in_o the_o chapter_n that_o

the_o soul_n be_v create_v it_o have_v corrupt_a inclination_n and_o be_v incline_v towards_o the_o body_n since_o from_o that_o very_a moment_n it_o have_v the_o inclination_n which_o answer_v to_o the_o motion_n that_o be_v actual_o in_o the_o brain_n to_o which_o it_o be_v unite_v xi_o but_o whereas_o it_o be_v a_o disorder_n that_o the_o mind_n shall_v incline_v to_o body_n and_o love_v

to_o order_n xiii_o however_o it_o be_v not_o just_o the_o child_n shall_v receive_v the_o trace_v of_o sensible_a object_n forcible_o and_o if_o the_o soul_n of_o child_n be_v create_v but_o one_o

there_o be_v no_o reason_n that_o god_n shall_v change_v the_o law_n of_o the_o communication_n of_o motion_n in_o their_o behalf_n therefore_o it_o be_v just_a that_o child_n shall_v be_v bear_v

these_o thing_n i_o very_o well_o know_v st._n austin_n affirm_v that_o pain_n be_v a_o a_o version_n which_o the_o soul_n conceive_v because_o the_o body_n be_v not_o dispose_v after_o such_o a_o
