this_o not_o be_v to_o be_v do_v our_o work_n appear_v in_o public_a to_o all_o the_o world_n it_o be_v impossible_a but_o i_o must_v needs_o leave_v you_o somewhat_o surprise_v for_o if_o you_o be_v a_o common_a and_o vulgar_a wit_n i_o doubt_v not_o but_o you_o be_v persuade_v that_o the_o number_n and_o perfection_n of_o the_o science_n have_v be_v by_o the_o ancient_n long_v since_o determine_v guide_v by_o a_o vain_a reason_n that_o since_o they_o can_v find_v out_o nothing_o more_o to_o say_v it_o be_v a_o sign_n that_o there_o be_v nothing_o new_a and_o if_o you_o happen_v to_o have_v such_o sentiment_n go_v no_o further_o nor_o read_v any_o long_o for_o it_o will_v but_o vex_v you_o to_o know_v what_o a_o wretched_a kind_n of_o wit_n you_o be_v master_n of_o but_o if_o you_o be_v deliberate_a and_o discreet_a i_o have_v three_o very_a true_a conclusion_n to_o propose_v to_o you_o which_o for_o their_o novelty_n be_v not_o a_o little_a to_o be_v admire_v the_o first_o be_v that_o of_o all_o the_o different_a wit_n of_o man_n there_o be_v but_o one_o as_o predominant_a can_v fall_v to_o thy_o share_n three_o unless_o nature_n strain_v hard_o as_o it_o be_v to_o form_v two_o or_o three_o excellency_n more_o in_o thou_o and_o be_v unable_a to_o effect_v what_o she_o design_v have_v leave_v thou_o off_o unwrought_a in_o haste_n as_o a_o rude_a essay_n of_o a_o unfinished_a piece_n the_o second_o that_o to_o each_o different_a kind_n of_o wit_n correspond_v one_o science_n only_o transcendent_o and_o no_o more_o for_o which_o reason_n if_o thou_o be_v not_o well_o assure_v in_o the_o choice_n of_o what_o suit_v thy_o talon_n thou_o will_v find_v thyself_o very_o short_a in_o the_o rest_n with_o the_o most_o assiduous_a application_n the_o three_o that_o after_o thou_o have_v find_v out_o what_o science_n correspond_v best_a with_o thy_o wit_n there_o remain_v if_o thou_o will_v not_o err_v another_o great_a difficulty_n which_o be_v whether_o the_o practic_n or_o theory_n suit_v best_a with_o thy_o genius_n for_o these_o two_o part_n in_o all_o science_n whatever_a be_v so_o opposite_a to_o each_o other_o and_o require_v wit_n so_o diverse_a that_o they_o may_v be_v set_v one_o against_o the_o other_o in_o the_o place_n of_o contrary_n a_o hard_a say_v this_o i_o own_o and_o yet_o hard_a as_o it_o be_v what_o be_v yet_o the_o hard_a of_o all_o be_v there_o be_v no_o writ_n of_o error_n or_o appeal_v for_o who_o can_v say_v that_o he_o have_v receive_v any_o wrong_n for_o god_n be_v the_o author_n of_o nature_n who_o dispense_v to_o each_o man_n but_o one_o kind_n of_o genius_n as_o i_o say_v but_o now_o notwithstanding_o the_o opposition_n and_o difficulty_n that_o lie_v in_o the_o unite_n they_o he_o accommodate_v himself_o to_o she_o and_o of_o the_o science_n he_o distribute_v gratis_o among_o man_n in_o a_o miraculous_a way_n he_o give_v no_o more_o than_o one_o in_o a_o eminent_a degree_n xii_o there_o be_v diversity_n of_o gift_n but_o the_o same_o spirit_n and_o there_o be_v diversity_n of_o administration_n but_o the_o same_o lord_n and_o there_o be_v diversity_n of_o operation_n but_o it_o be_v the_o same_o god_n which_o work_v all_o in_o all_o but_o the_o manifestation_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v give_v to_o every_o man_n to_o profit_v withal_o for_o to_o one_o be_v give_v by_o the_o spirit_n the_o word_n of_o wisdom_n to_o another_o the_o word_n of_o knowledge_n by_o the_o same_o spirit_n to_o another_o faith_n by_o the_o same_o spirit_n to_o another_o the_o gift_n of_o healing_n by_o the_o same_o spirit_n to_o another_o the_o work_v of_o miracle_n to_o another_o prophecy_n to_o another_o the_o discern_a of_o spirit_n to_o another_o divers_a kind_n of_o tongue_n to_o another_o the_o interpretation_n of_o tongue_n but_o all_o these_o work_v one_o and_o the_o same_o spirit_n divide_v to_o every_o man_n several_o as_o he_o will_n upon_o the_o whole_a matter_n you_o see_v that_o even_o the_o grace_n man_n possess_v in_o the_o church_n be_v very_o different_a yet_o be_v they_o all_o distribute_v by_o one_o and_o the_o same_o spirit_n who_o be_v the_o source_n of_o all_o the_o ministerial_a employment_n be_v divers_a and_o yet_o it_o be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o lord_n who_o call_v both_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o to_o his_o respective_a function_n neither_o be_v the_o power_n of_o work_a miracle_n equal_a and_o alike_o in_o all_o though_o it_o be_v the_o same_o god_n who_o produce_v those_o miraculous_a act_n which_o be_v perform_v by_o those_o to_o who_o he_o have_v give_v that_o power_n nor_o be_v you_o to_o think_v that_o the_o distribution_n of_o these_o gift_n which_o proclaim_v the_o holy_a spirit_n be_v dwell_v in_o he_o who_o possess_v the_o same_o be_v without_o reason_n unequal_a since_o in_o their_o distribution_n god_n have_v regard_n to_o what_o be_v of_o more_o use_n and_o advantage_n either_o for_o the_o far_a confirmation_n of_o those_o who_o already_o be_v believer_n or_o for_o the_o conversion_n of_o such_o as_o be_v yet_o idolater_n whence_o it_o come_v that_o one_o receive_v from_o the_o holy_a ghost_n the_o gift_n of_o wisdom_n to_o uncypher_v divine_a mystery_n and_o another_o the_o gift_n of_o knowledge_n from_o the_o same_o spirit_n and_o that_o also_o one_o have_v faith_n by_o virtue_n of_o which_o he_o work_v a_o vast_a number_n of_o miracle_n and_o heal_v all_o incurable_a disease_n another_o be_v arm_v with_o a_o power_n of_o miracle_n of_o another_o kind_n as_o of_o foretell_v many_o

of_o all_o these_o gift_n and_o who_o distribute_v they_o according_a to_o his_o good_a pleasure_n i_o question_v not_o in_o the_o least_o but_o god_n make_v that_o distribution_n of_o science_n

by_o reason_n of_o their_o excessive_a heat_n and_o dryness_n the_o melancholic_a because_o of_o their_o extraordinary_a coldness_n and_o dryness_n yet_o nevertheless_o all_o these_o fail_v not_o to_o

without_o any_o considerable_a inconvenience_n and_o without_o have_v recourse_n to_o physic_n for_o which_o reason_n physic_n itself_o conserves_n they_o in_o their_o natural_a disposition_n though_o

that_o perfect_a health_n in_o which_o be_v no_o pain_n or_o infirmity_n whatever_o of_o this_o we_o have_v plain_a proof_n for_o nature_n in_o all_o her_o effort_n and_o inclination_n endeavour_v

be_v most_o contrary_a to_o it_o as_o if_o he_o real_o be_v sick_a thus_o we_o observe_v the_o summer_n agree_v best_a with_o the_o choleric_a the_o winter_n worst_a and_o that_o wine_n inflame_v he_o

to_o what_o end_n serve_v this_o knowledge_n of_o the_o different_a inclination_n of_o man_n it_o be_v to_o consider_v the_o diversity_n there_o be_v among_o the_o same_o person_n choleric_a phlegmatic_a sanguine_a or_o melancholic_a because_o of_o the_o vast_a difference_n between_o choler_n phlegm_n blood_n and_o melancholy_a in_o order_n to_o understand_v more_o clear_o that_o the_o variety_n of_o ill_a constitution_n and_o disease_n among_o man_n be_v absolute_o the_o cause_n of_o the_o diversity_n of_o their_o judgement_n as_o far_o as_o respect_v the_o rational_a part_n it_o
