that_o unreasonable_a ii_o ii_o creature_n as_o bird_n and_o beast_n fowl_n and_o fish_n have_v no_o conscience_n because_o they_o have_v no_o rule_n give_v of_o god_n to_o guide_v their_o action_n

the_o reason_n be_v because_o there_o be_v no_o rule_n to_o guide_v the_o act_n now_o no_o science_n of_o the_o rule_n no_o conscience_n this_o shall_v teach_v man_n to_o use_v they_o upon_o

so_o the_o distribution_n of_o conscience_n be_v many_o yet_o may_v they_o all_o be_v reduce_v to_o these_o two_o head_n for_o as_o every_o axiom_n or_o rule_n be_v true_a or_o false_a so_o be_v

yet_o all_o these_o be_v but_o two_o and_o no_o more_o conscience_n for_o rest_v and_o trouble_n be_v not_o essential_a but_o accidental_a unto_o conscience_n a_o bad_a conscience_n as_o we_o see_v
