ordinary_a function_n of_o human_a life_n conclude_v to_o abominate_v so_o filthy_a a_o kind_n of_o vice_n and_o abhor_v the_o company_n of_o drunkard_n as_o of_o so_o many_o beast_n when_o any_o

frame_v and_o create_v a_o new_a scourge_n for_o thyself_o he_o therefore_o who_o be_v angry_a rejoice_v his_o enemy_n and_o complete_v his_o desire_n which_o be_v that_o he_o shall_v bring_v u_o upon_o himself_o misery_n and_o grief_n but_o he_o who_o ispatient_a in_o that_o very_a thing_n be_v a_o conqueror_n since_o he_o hinder_v that_o his_o enemy_n can_v heap_v a_o mischief_n and_o

to_o wish_v any_o hurt_n to_o another_o for_o any_o thing_n which_o be_v do_v by_o chance_n or_o through_o ignorance_n or_o last_o out_o of_o passion_n or_o through_o a_o evil_a affection_n who_o it_o

you_o be_v not_o angry_a with_o a_o dog_n or_o a_o bear_n so_o neither_o be_v it_o a_o thing_n become_v to_o be_v angry_a with_o such_o a_o man_n but_o he_o that_o have_v contract_v a_o irrational_a

5._o add_v to_o these_o the_o turpitude_n of_o a_o angry_a man_n in_o his_o countenance_n in_o the_o headlong_a rashness_n of_o his_o motion_n and_o gesture_n not_o see_v what_o be_v fit_a to_o be_v

in_o the_o body_n conclude_v to_o embrace_v meekness_n and_o not_o to_o give_v the_o reins_o of_o reason_n to_o so_o unbridled_a and_o inconsiderate_a a_o affection_n when_o thou_o see_v one_o angry_a
