many_o that_o take_v hatred_n to_o be_v a_o inveterate_a anger_n be_v because_o it_o be_v a_o habit_n of_o anger_n whereby_o the_o heart_n eschew_v something_o as_o evil_a and_o desire_v to_o repel_v and_o drive_v it_o away_o wherefore_o this_o affection_n be_v direct_o contrary_a to_o love_v &_o so_o likewise_o be_v anger_n for_o it_o be_v a_o offence_n root_v in_o the_o hart_n which_o cause_v

that_o it_o breed_v strife_n contention_n manslaughter_n and_o murder_n therefore_o in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n hatred_n be_v often_o take_v for_o all_o these_o thing_n it_o as_o for_o the_o vehement_a cause_n of_o hatred_n they_o be_v in_o every_o one_o according_a as_o a_o man_n esteem_v of_o the_o thing_n he_o hate_v therefore_o proud_a and_o envious_a person_n be_v always_o very_o

to_o love_n love_n and_o why_o hatred_n take_v deep_a root_n in_o our_o heart_n then_o love_n be_v because_o hatred_n find_v a_o better_a soil_n there_o and_o a_o more_o apt_a foundation_n to_o be_v

then_o we_o must_v call_v to_o mind_n that_o which_o we_o have_v already_o touch_v elsewhere_o namely_o that_o see_v the_o body_n of_o man_n be_v compound_v of_o all_o the_o element_n it_o be_v

of_o the_o body_n the_o live_a creature_n will_v always_o have_v a_o appetite_n and_o never_o leave_v eat_v therefore_o god_n have_v so_o frame_v those_o creature_n which_o he_o have_v give_v to_o

that_o which_o be_v of_o the_o nature_n of_o fire_n or_o of_o the_o water_n or_o of_o the_o air_n but_o all_o be_v so_o well_o mingle_v and_o temper_a one_o with_o another_o that_o the_o taste_n and_o

for_o it_o man_n can_v have_v no_o taste_n therein_o and_o if_o he_o taste_v not_o he_o will_v have_v no_o appetite_n and_o so_o can_v neither_o eat_v nor_o drink_v and_o if_o he_o can_v neither_o

for_o as_o a_o fountain_n can_v be_v without_o a_o river_n so_o a_o river_n can_v be_v without_o a_o fountain_n for_o this_o cause_n see_v reason_n of_o which_o god_n have_v make_v man_n partaker_n

the_o other_o sense_n the_o image_n of_o all_o thing_n bring_v and_o commit_v unto_o it_o by_o they_o be_v to_o be_v imprint_v therein_o as_o the_o image_n and_o sign_n of_o a_o ring_n or_o seal_n

that_o it_o be_v neither_o too_o soft_a nor_o too_o hard_a for_o if_o it_o be_v too_o soft_a the_o image_n will_v be_v soon_o engrave_v but_o they_o will_v not_o stay_v there_o any_o long_a time_n

the_o knowledge_n of_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v by_o the_o outward_a sense_n be_v as_o if_o we_o behold_v the_o shadow_n of_o they_o and_o that_o knowledge_n which_o we_o have_v by_o the_o common_a

imagination_n and_o fantasy_n be_v near_a to_o the_o corporal_a sense_n draw_v the_o soul_n to_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v bodily_a but_o reason_n and_o the_o spirit_n prick_v it_o forward_o and_o

for_o the_o fountain_n and_o fruit_n of_o the_o religion_n and_o service_n of_o god_n consist_v not_o in_o this_o mortal_a life_n and_o therefore_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v in_o some_o other_o that_o

then_o do_v we_o give_v credit_n to_o humane_a thing_n when_o we_o take_v they_o to_o be_v so_o certain_a that_o we_o doubt_v nothing_o thereof_o as_o namely_o when_o we_o be_v so_o persuade_v

therefore_o it_o tend_v to_o dislike_a which_o be_v whole_o against_o consent_n be_v for_o this_o cause_n we_o call_v opinion_n a_o knowledge_n that_o move_v we_o to_o incline_v rather_o on_o the_o

of_o the_o affection_n it_o be_v necessary_a they_o shall_v agree_v together_o for_o as_o reason_n guide_v before_o the_o affection_n will_v follow_v after_o therefore_o we_o may_v always_o judge_v

thing_n speak_v of_o before_o the_o three_o reason_n be_v that_o forasmuch_o as_o these_o natural_a power_n be_v more_o terrestrial_a than_o celestial_a and_o more_o corporal_a than_o spiritual_a and_o the_o use_n and_o profit_n of_o they_o end_v with_o this_o humane_a life_n we_o may_v comprehend_v they_o under_o the_o name_n of_o body_n as_o thing_n more_o near_o join_v to_o it_o for_o the_o

the_o soul_n appear_v more_o in_o this_o life_n than_o any_o of_o the_o rest_n therefore_o it_o be_v better_a know_v for_o this_o cause_n the_o name_n of_o soul_n be_v oftentimes_o take_v not_o only_o

the_o whole_a estate_n of_o life_n we_o may_v call_v to_o mind_n what_o we_o hear_v before_o of_o the_o soul_n which_o be_v in_o the_o blood_n and_o when_o reuben_n say_v to_o his_o brethren_n that_o
