A24063	An account of the Oriental philosophy shewing the wisdom of some renowned men of the East and particularly the profound wisdom of Hai Ebn Yokdan, both in natural and divine things, which he attained without all converse with men, (while he lived in an island a solitary life, remote from all men from his infancy, till he arrived at such perfection) / writ originally in Arabick by Abi Jaaphar, Ebn Tophail ; and out of the Arabick translated into Latine by Edward Pocok ... and now faithfully out of his Latine, translated into English.; Risālat Ḥayy ibn Yaqẓān.

more_o perfect_a and_o beautiful_a than_o the_o thing_n which_o the_o smell_a apprehend_v therefore_o if_o there_o be_v any_o thing_n which_o have_v no_o end_n of_o perfection_n of_o beauty_n of_o

at_o any_o time_n and_o hence_o it_o be_v manifest_a unto_o he_o that_o they_o know_v not_o that_o be_v or_o have_v any_o desire_n of_o it_o nor_o seek_v any_o knowledge_n of_o it_o by_o any_o mean_n
