swarve_v from_o true_a natural_a philosophy_n by_o this_o right_n it_o do_v appear_v possible_a to_o maintain_v the_o unity_n of_o heat_n and_o moisture_n till_o they_o spend_v themselves_o in_o their_o own_o natural_a motion_n and_o be_v to_o cut_v off_o their_o be_v by_o unskilful_a course_n either_o in_o diet_n or_o medicine_n and_o if_o a_o simile_n will_v be_v acceptable_a i_o suppose_v hypocrates_n to_o be_v very_o happy_a in_o his_o when_o he_o compare_v the_o life_n of_o man_n to_o a_o candle_n in_o a_o lantern_n or_o set_v up_o in_o some_o other_o place_n where_o neither_o wind_n or_o rain_n or_o other_o tempest_n can_v seize_v upon_o it_o in_o such_o a_o place_n the_o candle_n will_v be_v long_a burn_n out_o then_o when_o it_o be_v expose_v to_o common_a injury_n of_o wind_n and_o weather_n by_o which_o it_o be_v either_o sudden_o blow_v out_o before_o the_o oil_n or_o tallow_n be_v spend_v or_o else_o blaze_v out_o in_o a_o short_a time_n and_o these_o injury_n be_v to_o the_o body_n of_o man_n plague_n wound_n and_o all_o manner_n of_o disease_n compel_v nature_n violent_o to_o yield_v its_o natural_a be_v which_o otherwise_o might_n and_o will_v be_v further_o

because_o the_o heart_n can_v be_v make_v moist_a when_o as_o by_o age_n it_o be_v exiccate_v yet_o i_o do_v not_o think_v it_o wise_a or_o religious_a in_o a_o negligent_a way_n to_o betray_v our_o life_n to_o death_n before_o the_o time_n as_o some_o do_v in_o a_o fantastical_a way_n other_o in_o a_o desperate_a but_o all_o like_a fool_n go_v to_o the_o slaughter_n alike_o when_o as_o they_o

receive_v direction_n from_o other_o more_o able_a and_o learned_a then_o myself_o that_o which_o i_o have_v do_v be_v rational_o to_o satisfy_v the_o world_n in_o the_o thing_n itself_o which_o have_v be_v in_o allage_n question_v both_o in_o respect_n of_o man_n life_n that_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v extend_v as_o also_o in_o respect_n of_o wine_n that_o they_o be_v not_o so_o proper_a to_o extend_v it_o now_o if_o you_o look_v back_o upon_o the_o principle_n of_o man_n life_n and_o the_o principle_n of_o wine_n none_o will_v i_o hope_v condemn_v my_o philosophy_n though_o some_o may_v differ_v in_o opinion_n and_o many_o such_o there_o will_v be_v which_o in_o such_o infinity_n aswell_o of_o judgement_n as_o of_o face_n can_v be_v help_v nor_o avoid_v therefore_o it_o be_v not_o in_o i_o to_o satisfy_v every_o fancy_n nor_o do_v i_o desire_v to_o be_v understand_v of_o the_o vulgar_a but_o rather_o that_o wisdom_n shall_v be_v justify_v of_o her_o child_n and_o to_o such_o be_v these_o my_o endeavour_n offer_v a_o sacrifice_n after_o the_o manner_n of_o those_o devout_a child_n in_o plutarch_n which_o by_o reason_n of_o sudden_a inundation_n of_o water_n be_v

of_o a_o ram_n to_o offer_v a_o limon_n which_o jupiter_n accept_v in_o that_o case_n of_o necessity_n so_o myself_o have_v late_o wade_v through_o fountain_n moor_n stand_v pool_n river_n wells_n
