body_n be_v sick_a the_o soul_n be_v alter_v in_o its_o operation_n as_o we_o see_v in_o high_a fever_n and_o other_o acute_a disease_n and_o on_o the_o contrary_n let_v the_o soul_n be_v sad_a or_o joyful_a the_o body_n be_v so_o too_o therefore_o the_o sophister_n of_o old_a be_v wont_a to_o purge_v themselves_o with_o hellebore_n when_o they_o will_v dispute_v best_a for_o though_o in_o its_o essence_n the_o soul_n depend_v not_o on_o the_o corporeal_a organ_n yet_o it_o depend_v upon_o the_o same_o in_o its_o operation_n which_o be_v different_a according_a to_o the_o diverse_a structure_n of_o the_o organ_n which_o if_o they_o be_v alike_o dispose_v their_o action_n will_v be_v alike_o in_o all_o and_o at_o all_o time_n whence_o say_v aristotle_n if_o a_o old_a man_n have_v a_o young_a man_n eye_n he_o will_v see_v as_o clear_a as_o a_o young_a man._n that_o ingenious_a master_n of_o poetry_n mr._n dryden_n speak_v of_o the_o mutability_n of_o man_n say_z that_o our_o

divine_n will_v allow_v they_o to_o be_v i_o have_v observe_v say_v montaign_a that_o when_o the_o body_n be_v out_o of_o order_n its_o companion_n be_v seldom_o at_o ease_n a_o ill_a dream_n or_o a_o

the_o learned_a dr._n henry_n more_o say_v that_o our_o imagination_n alter_v even_o as_o our_o blood_n and_o spirit_n be_v alter_v and_o therefore_o say_v he_o as_o dream_n be_v the_o fancy_n of_o those_o that_o sleep_n so_o fancy_n be_v but_o the_o dream_n of_o man_n awake_v and_o these_o fancy_n by_o day_n as_o those_o dream_n by_o night_n will_v vary_v and_o change_v with_o the_o wether_n and_o present_a temper_n of_o the_o body_n but_o to_o proceed_v other_o be_v of_o opinion_n that_o this_o great_a diversity_n proceed_v from_o another_o cause_n to_o wit_n from_o the_o climate_n peter_n heylin_n speak_v of_o the_o dispersion_n of_o the_o family_n of_o the_o son_n of_o noah_n say_v that_o though_o they_o all_o descend_v from_o one_o common_a root_n yet_o by_o the_o situation_n of_o their_o several_a dwelling_n they_o come_v to_o be_v of_o several_a temper_n and_o affection_n in_o which_o they_o be_v so_o different_a from_o one_o another_o that_o they_o seem_v rather_o to_o have_v be_v make_v at_o first_o out_o of_o several_a principle_n than_o to_o have_v be_v derive_v from_o one_o common_a parent_n the_o ground_n or_o reason_n of_o which_o difference_n say_v heylin_n be_v to_o be_v attribute_v to_o the_o different_a temper_n of_o those_o country_n in_o which_o they_o live_v and_o to_o the_o different_a influence_n of_o the_o heavenly_a body_n on_o those_o several_a country_n which_o do_v continue_v still_o the_o same_o though_o many_o time_n the_o country_n shift_n and_o change_v their_o old_a inhabitant_n thus_o if_o we_o inquire_v into_o the_o old_a character_n which_o either_o florus_n caesar_n tacitus_n or_o juvenal_n give_v of_o the_o old_a britain_n gaul_n german_n norman_n etc._n etc._n we_o shall_v find_v that_o the_o same_o virtue_n and_o

observe_v that_o where_o the_o heaven_n be_v always_o in_o the_o same_o posture_n as_o towards_o the_o pole_n or_o where_o the_o sun_n heat_v almost_o in_o the_o same_o degree_n as_o near_o the_o equator_fw-la which_o make_v the_o day_n and_o night_n equal_a the_o manner_n and_o inclination_n of_o the_o people_n be_v also_o equal_a and_o on_o the_o contrary_a those_o that_o by_o the_o several_a remotion_n and_o approach_n of_o the_o sun_n have_v different_a constitution_n of_o air_n receive_v suitable_a impression_n from_o the_o same_o which_o be_v afterward_o manifest_v in_o their_o action_n as_o therefore_o fruit_n and_o beast_n differ_v according_a to_o the_o several_a country_n in_o which_o they_o be_v so_o be_v man_n bear_v more_o or_o less_o warlike_a just_a temperate_a and_o the_o like_a according_a to_o their_o several_a climate_n and_o therefore_o plato_n thank_v god_n that_o he_o be_v a_o athenian_a and_o not_o a_o theban_a plutarch_n tell_v we_o that_o those_o of_o the_o high_a part_n of_o the_o city_n of_o athens_n be_v of_o a_o quite_o contrary_a humour_n to_o those_o that_o dwell_v about_o the_o gate_n of_o pyreus_n and_o it_o be_v observe_v that_o those_o who_o dwell_v on_o the_o noth-side_n of_o a_o mountain_n differ_v as_o much_o from_o those_o that_o dwell_v on_o the_o south_n side_n as_o they_o do_v both_o from_o those_o in_o the_o valley_n now_o from_o this_o diversity_n of_o man_n temper_n proceed_v the_o several_a form_n and_o constitution_n of_o government_n and_o thence_o it_o be_v that_o in_o the_o same_o country_n we_o find_v little_a variation_n as_o to_o government_n but_o that_o in_o all_o age_n they_o have_v still_o keep_v to_o much_o one_o and_o the_o same_o form_n the_o same_o genius_n or_o temper_v ever_o continue_v under_o the_o same_o climate_n and_o whenever_o any_o country_n either_o by_o persuasion_n have_v voluntary_o or_o by_o force_n have_v be_v compel_v to_o quit_v their_o old_a form_n of_o government_n yet_o in_o process_n of_o time_n they_o natural_o return_v into_o the_o old_a channel_n this_o then_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o those_o who_o inhabit_v the_o most_o intemperate_a clime_n be_v always_o for_o prefer_v the_o despotic_a arbitrary_a rule_n whereas_o those_o who_o live_v under_o the_o more_o temperate_a and_o less_o severe_a climate_n especial_o in_o europe_n have_v affect_v and_o prefer_v more_o gentle_a and_o moderate_a government_n run_v ancient_o much_o into_o commonwealth_n and_o of_o latter_a age_n into_o principalites_n circumscribe_v by_o law_n which_o differ_v not_o so_o much_o in_o nature_n as_o in_o name_n the_o natural_a reason_n whereof_o say_v that_o accomplish_v author_n sir_n william_n temple_n i_o take_v to_o be_v this_o viz._n that_o in_o the_o more_o intemperate_a climate_n the_o spirit_n either_o exhale_a by_o heat_n or_o compress_v by_o cold_a be_v render_v faint_a and_o sluggish_a and_o by_o that_o reason_n the_o man_n grow_v tame_a and_o fit_a for_o servitude_n that_o in_o more_o temperate_a region_n the_o spirit_n be_v strong_a and_o more_o active_a whereby_o man_n become_v bold_a in_o the_o defence_n or_o recovery_n of_o their_o liberty_n now_o by_o what_o we_o have_v already_o say_v it_o plain_o appear_v that_o the_o great_a variety_n of_o man_n action_n and_o opinion_n can_v proceed_v from_o the_o diversity_n of_o their_o soul_n which_o be_v account_v all_o equal_a but_o from_o that_o of_o their_o body_n wherein_o according_a to_o the_o various_a temper_n thereof_o the_o soul_n produce_v that_o variety_n of_o manner_n let_v we_o not_o then_o any_o long_a wonder_n to_o find_v so_o great_a a_o diversity_n of_o opinion_n in_o the_o world_n since_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n whole_o impossible_a for_o all_o man_n to_o be_v of_o the_o same_o mind_n for_o so_o long_o as_o man_n organ_n be_v of_o several_a make_v and_o we_o live_v under_o divers_a climate_n we_o must_v necessary_o have_v
