we_o see_v in_o swine_n and_o many_o greedy_a child_n that_o they_o will_v many_o time_n even_o kill_v themselves_o with_o eat_v if_o they_o have_v not_o the_o reason_n of_o other_o to_o govern_v they_o appetite_n therefore_o be_v not_o to_o be_v our_o rule_n either_o for_o quantity_n or_o quality_n of_o meat_n but_o reason_n in_o this_o as_o in_o other_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v our_o guide_n and_o governor_n when_o reason_n have_v nothing_o against_o it_o than_o appetite_n show_v what_o be_v most_o agreeable_a to_o nature_n and_o what_o the_o stomach_n be_v like_o best_a to_o close_v
