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

may_v learn_v somewhat_o that_o may_v be_v for_o his_o safety_n but_o he_o see_v they_o all_o take_v up_o in_o seek_v their_o food_n and_o fulfil_v their_o desire_n of_o meat_n drink_n and_o lust_n and_o how_o they_o cover_v themselves_o with_o a_o shadow_n or_o warm_v themselves_o and_o that_o they_o diligent_o give_v themselves_o to_o these_o thing_n both_o night_n and_o day_n even_o to_o the_o time_n of_o their_o death_n and_o go_v out_o of_o this_o life_n nor_o see_v he_o any_o of_o they_o to_o decline_v from_o this_o design_n or_o to_o be_v careful_a about_o any_o other_o thing_n 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 but_o that_o they_o do_v all_o tend_v unto_o privation_n or_o some_o state_n like_o unto_o privation_n and_o when_o he_o conclude_v this_o of_o animal_n he_o see_v it_o be_v more_o fit_a that_o he_o shall_v conclude_v the_o same_o of_o plant_n who_o have_v not_o these_o apprehension_n but_o in_o part_n which_o the_o animal_n have_v for_o when_o that_o which_o be_v of_o a_o more_o perfect_a apprehension_n can_v attain_v this_o knowledge_n much_o less_o can_v that_o attain_v it_o which_o be_v of_o a_o less_o perfection_n also_o when_o he_o see_v that_o all_o the_o action_n of_o plant_n be_v nothing_o beyond_o nutrition_n and_o generation_n then_o he_o consider_v the_o star_n and_o sphere_n and_o he_o see_v that_o they_o have_v all_o motion_n that_o be_v orderly_o and_o that_o they_o

he_o do_v exceed_o suspect_v that_o beside_o their_o body_n they_o have_v essence_n which_o may_v know_v that_o necessary_a existent_n be_v and_o that_o these_o intelligent_a essence_n be_v like_a

a_o essence_n who_o be_v so_o weak_a and_o who_o have_v

of_o they_o also_o he_o see_v that_o his_o neighbour_n the_o little_a hind_n or_o kid_n come_v to_o have_v horn_n to_o grow_v on_o they_o which_o they_o first_o want_v and_o that_o though_o they_o be_v weak_a to_o run_v yet_o that_o at_o length_n they_o become_v nimble_a but_o he_o perceive_v none_o of_o these_o to_o befall_v himself_o consider_v this_o in_o his_o mind_n he_o be_v ignorant_a what_o be_v the_o cause_n thereof_o also_o he_o behold_v the_o creature_n where_o in_o be_v any_o fault_n or_o defect_n of_o member_n nor_o do_v he_o find_v among_o they_o any_o like_a to_o himself_o consider_v also_o in_o the_o beast_n the_o passage_n of_o the_o excrement_n which_o he_o see_v cover_v and_o that_o the_o passage_n which_o serve_v to_o the_o grosser_n excrement_n be_v cover_v with_o

breed_v grief_n and_o anxiety_n unto_o he_o which_o when_o he_o he_o have_v long_o consider_v earnest_o and_o be_v now_o almost_o seven_o year_n old_a he_o despair_v of_o attain_v that_o the_o want_n of_o which_o trouble_v he_o then_o he_o take_v broad_a leaf_n of_o tree_n some_o whereof_o he_o put_v on_o the_o hinder-part_n of_o his_o body_n and_o some_o on_o the_o forepart_n and_o have_v make_v a_o girdle_n of_o the_o leave_n of_o palm_n and_o rush_n where_o with_o he_o gird_v himself_o he_o hang_v they_o to_o he_o thereby_o but_o after_o a_o small_a time_n the_o leave_n become_v dry_a and_o

but_o yet_o it_o be_v but_o for_o a_o short_a time_n also_o he_o take_v unto_o he_o a_o staff_n off_o the_o bough_n of_o a_o tree_n and_o have_v make_v the_o end_n of_o it_o handsome_a and_o smooth_v the_o middle_n of_o it_o he_o begin_v to_o threaten_v the_o beast_n which_o oppose_v he_o make_v a_o assault_n upon_o the_o weak_a and_o resist_v the_o strong_a after_o this_o manner_n he_o somewhat_o understand_v his_o own_o strength_n and_o that_o his_o hand_n far_o excel_v they_o for_o it_o suffice_v to_o cover_v his_o nakedness_n and_o to_o make_v use_n of_o a_o staff_n for_o his_o own_o defence_n so_o that_o now_o he_o need_v not_o a_o tail_n nor_o yet_o those_o natural_a dart_n which_o he_o first_o wish_v thing_n be_v thus_o he_o grow_v up_o and_o pass_v beyond_o the_o seven_o year_n of_o his_o age_n and_o when_o the_o frequent_a repair_n of_o the_o leave_n be_v troublesome_a unto_o he_o wherewith_o he_o cover_v himself_o he_o think_v in_o his_o mind_n to_o take_v to_o he_o the_o tail_n of_o some_o dead_a beast_n and_o hang_v it_o to_o he_o but_o that_o he_o see_v the_o live_a beast_n of_o its_o own_o kind_n to_o shun_v the_o dead_a and_o flee_v from_o they_o so_o that_o it_o will_v not_o be_v fit_a for_o he_o to_o enterprise_v any_o such_o thing_n until_o at_o length_n he_o find_v a_o dead_a eagle_n whence_o he_o seem_v to_o get_v his_o desire_n accomplish_v therefore_o take_v a_o occasion_n thence_o when_o he_o see_v that_o none_o of_o the_o beast_n flee_v from_o that_o he_o come_v unto_o it_o he_o cut_v from_o it_o the_o wing_n and_o the_o tail_n

he_o hang_v the_o one_o to_o his_o back_n and_o the_o other_o to_o his_o belly_n and_o to_o the_o part_n under_o the_o same_o also_o he_o fasten_v the_o tail_n to_o himself_o behind_o and_o both_o

heart_n of_o all_o the_o beast_n so_o that_o none_o of_o they_o contend_v with_o he_o nor_o resist_v he_o nor_o come_v near_o unto_o he_o but_o the_o goat_n which_o give_v he_o milk_n and_o nourish_v he_o for_o she_o never_o leave_v he_o nor_o he_o she_o till_o she_o become_v old_a and_o weak_a and_o then_o he_o lead_v she_o to_o the_o best_a pasture_n and_o pull_v sweet_a fruit_n and_o give_v she_o to_o eat_v but_o weakness_n and_o leanness_n languish_v cease_v not_o to_o prevail_v over_o she_o and_o daily_o to_o approach_v until_o death_n sieze_v on_o she_o and_o all_o her_o motion_n become_v still_o and_o all_o her_o action_n cease_v but_o when_o the_o child_n see_v that_o it_o be_v so_o with_o she_o he_o be_v great_o strike_v so_o that_o almost_o for_o grief_n he_o have_v expire_v and_o he_o call_v upon_o she_o with_o the_o same_o voice_n which_o she_o use_v to_o answer_v when_o she_o hear_v it_o and_o he_o stir_v she_o up_o with_o cry_v as_o loud_o as_o he_o can_v but_o he_o perceive_v no_o motion_n nor_o change_n in_o she_o he_o begin_v therefore_o to_o look_v to_o her_o ear_n and_o eye_n but_o find_v no_o visible_a hurt_n in_o they_o and_o in_o the_o same_o manner_n consider_v all_o the_o member_n of_o her_o body_n he_o find_v nothing_o amiss_o in_o they_o but_o he_o great_o desire_v to_o find_v that_o place_n where_o the_o defect_n be_v that_o he_o may_v remove_v it_o from_o she_o that_o she_o may_v return_v to_o her_o former_a state_n but_o nothing_o of_o this_o sort_n be_v in_o readiness_n nor_o can_v he_o do_v it_o that_o which_o move_v he_o to_o this_o consideration_n be_v what_o he_o notice_v in_o himself_o for_o he_o see_v when_o he_o close_v his_o eye_n or_o cover_v they_o with_o any_o thing_n that_o he_o can_v see_v nothing_o until_o

press_v his_o nose_n with_o his_o hand_n he_o can_v find_v no_o smell_n until_o he_o open_v his_o nostril_n whence_o he_o gather_v that_o all_o his_o sense_n and_o action_n be_v obnoxious_a to_o hindrance_n which_o can_v impede_fw-la they_o but_o these_o hindrance_n be_v remove_v that_o the_o action_n return_v when_o therefore_o he_o have_v view_v all_o the_o outward_a member_n nor_o find_v any_o default_n in_o they_o and_o he_o observe_v a_o universal_a cessation_n of_o the_o whole_a which_o can_v not_o more_o be_v impute_v to_o one_o member_n then_o another_o at_o length_n it_o come_v into_o his_o mind_n that_o the_o hurt_n which_o have_v befall_v it_o be_v in_o some_o member_n remote_a from_o his_o sight_n and_o hide_a in_o a_o inward_a part_n of_o the_o body_n and_o that_o that_o

dead_a body_n of_o beast_n and_o other_o animal_n that_o all_o the_o member_n be_v solid_a and_o without_o any_o hollowness_n except_o the_o scull_n the_o breast_n and_o the_o belly_n therefore_o he_o

its_o seat_n be_v in_o the_o middle_n moreover_o when_o he_o consider_v himself_o he_o feel_v some_o such_o member_n in_o his_o own_o breast_n and_o when_o he_o think_v on_o the_o other_o member_n
