phalaris_n so_o that_o the_o circumstance_n show_v there_o be_v no_o parallel_n and_o consequent_o it_o can_v be_v no_o pattern_n and_o i_o hope_v you_o will_v not_o wrong_v your_o judgement_n so_o much_o as_o to_o say_v that_o when_o a_o man_n run_v down_o learning_n as_o much_o as_o he_o can_v the_o same_o measure_n be_v to_o be_v take_v as_o if_o he_o only_o err_v in_o criticism_n for_o one_o critic_n may_v make_v remark_n on_o another_o in_o a_o different_a way_n by_o which_o he_o may_v think_v the_o world_n will_v be_v set_v a_o laugh_a and_o by_o that_o mean_v ridicule_n the_o other_o but_o when_o a_o man_n as_o you_o say_v lay_v down_o notion_n of_o a_o more_o dangerous_a consequence_n and_o which_o may_v be_v fatal_a to_o many_o ridicule_n may_v set_v man_n a_o laugh_a that_o understand_v the_o jest_n but_o it_o will_v never_o convince_v weak_a and_o unthinking_a physician_n nay_o that_o which_o be_v ridicule_n to_o a_o judicious_a man_n be_v not_o ridicule_n to_o a_o man_n that_o understand_v not_o the_o unreasonableness_n of_o a_o thing_n for_o such_o can_v think_v it_o ridiculous_a till_o they_o be_v convince_v it_o be_v erroneous_a and_o though_o laughter_n may_v make_v a_o impression_n upon_o their_o lung_n it_o never_o influence_n the_o reason_n of_o those_o that_o think_v laughter_n unreasonable_a and_o though_o the_o weak_a sort_n of_o physician_n can_v read_v a_o satyr_n and_o keep_v the_o subject_a before_o they_o in_o their_o thought_n at_o the_o same_o time_n yet_o laughter_n put_v they_o out_o of_o a_o capacity_n of_o think_v and_o consequent_o of_o be_v convince_v in_o short_a it_o may_v make_v man_n merry_a for_o a_o time_n but_o it_o never_o last_v long_a than_o their_o lung_n be_v in_o a_o violent_a motion_n whereas_o a_o satyr_n where_o it_o be_v due_a render_v the_o subject_a oppose_a more_o despicable_a and_o bring_v a_o cloud_n upon_o it_o without_o set_v the_o reader_n head_n a_o shake_n and_o render_v the_o sight_n inconstant_a but_o not_o to_o urge_v at_o present_a what_o may_v be_v say_v in_o favour_n of_o satyr_n where_o a_o design_n be_v to_o influence_n the_o vulgar_a and_o not_o to_o set_v
