violent_a agitation_n all_o the_o function_n of_o sense_n and_o principal_o those_o of_o judgement_n be_v not_o to_o be_v perform_v but_o when_o the_o soul_n enjoy_v a_o great_a tranquillity_n as_o aristotle_n say_v whence_o it_o also_o happen_v that_o nature_n have_v place_v the_o brain_n so_o far_o from_o the_o principle_n of_o heat_n that_o its_o quiet_n may_v not_o be_v disturb_v by_o the_o neighbourhood_n of_o that_o active_a and_o turbulent_a quality_n as_o we_o shall_v more_o ample_o hereafter_o declare_v chap._n iii_o of_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o of_o the_o humour_n in_o anger_n as_o river_n which_o run_v into_o the_o sea_n be_v sensible_a of_o those_o storm_n wherewith_o it_o be_v agitate_a motion_n the_o spirit_n in_o anger_n have_v contrary_a motion_n those_o spirit_n which_o like_a river_n take_v their_o source_n from_o the_o soul_n and_o discharge_v themselves_o there_o also_o must_v needs_o suffer_v part_n of_o that_o great_a tempest_n which_o anger_n raise_v therein_o and_o they_o must_v be_v shake_v with_o the_o same_o violence_n and_o agitation_n which_o she_o resent_v in_o herself_o if_o it_o be_v therefore_o true_a that_o she_o be_v then_o move_v with_o two_o contrary_a motion_n and_o that_o at_o the_o same_o time_n when_o grief_n make_v she_o retire_v boldness_n raise_v she_o up_o and_o drive_v she_o forth_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o the_o spirit_n to_o who_o she_o communicate_v all_o her_o commotion_n must_v be_v agitate_a after_o the_o same_o manner_n and_o that_o as_o she_o do_v they_o must_v restrain_v and_o retreat_v themselves_o at_o the_o same_o instant_n when_o she_o raise_v and_o dart_v herself_o forth_o against_o ill_n and_o certain_o do_v not_o reason_n force_v the_o mind_n to_o confess_v this_o truth_n the_o effect_n which_o anger_n produce_v will_v sufficient_o prove_v it_o for_o beside_o that_o a_o man_n often_o grow_v pale_a when_o he_o be_v carry_v away_o with_o this_o passion_n that_o his_o voice_n be_v vehement_a and_o sharp_a and_o that_o common_o we_o see_v in_o his_o face_n sadness_n mix_v and_o confound_v itself_o with_o fury_n which_o can_v proceed_v from_o nothing_o but_o this_o contrariety_n of_o motion_n it_o be_v impossible_a to_o doubt_v it_o if_o we_o consider_v the_o different_a pulse_n which_o be_v proper_a for_o anger_n and_o the_o consistence_n which_o the_o heart_n and_o the_o lung_n have_v when_o it_o be_v kindle_v in_o those_o part_n for_o it_o have_v this_o in_o particular_a that_o it_o make_v the_o pulse_n high_o and_o more_o elevate_v then_o large_a and_o extend_v and_o that_o it_o retire_v the_o heart_n and_o lung_n in_o themselves_o although_o it_o then_o swell_v they_o and_o raise_v they_o up_o now_o this_o can_v be_v but_o from_o these_o two_o opposite_a motion_n we_o have_v speak_v of_o as_o we_o shall_v more_o full_o declare_v when_o we_o inquire_v into_o the_o cause_n of_o those_o effect_n but_o although_o this_o be_v most_o certain_a yet_o we_o must_v confess_v that_o it_o be_v hard_a to_o conceive_v how_o such_o body_n as_o the_o spirit_n be_v can_v at_o the_o same_o time_n suffer_v motion_n which_o seem_v incompatible_a for_o although_o there_o be_v many_o example_n in_o nature_n which_o make_v it_o appear_v that_o a_o body_n may_v be_v move_v in_o such_o a_o manner_n that_o fish_n which_o swim_v against_o the_o course_n of_o the_o water_n be_v insensible_o carry_v away_o with_o the_o force_n of_o the_o stream_n that_o a_o man_n may_v walk_v in_o a_o ship_n contrary_a to_o the_o course_n he_o shape_n and_o that_o the_o heaven_n themselves_o be_v as_o they_o say_v carry_v towards_o the_o west_n by_o the_o primum_fw-la mobile_a whilst_o by_o their_o natural_a inclination_n they_o tend_v towards_o the_o east_n yet_o this_o clear_v not_o the_o difficulty_n but_o leave_v still_o a_o great_a difference_n betwixt_o these_o motion_n and_o those_o wherewith_o the_o spirit_n be_v agitate_a in_o this_o passion_n for_o that_o there_o be_v but_o one_o motion_n in_o the_o former_a proper_a to_o the_o body_n move_v the_o other_o be_v as_o a_o stranger_n and_o as_o the_o school_n say_v happen_v by_o accident_n but_o here_o these_o two_o motion_n which_o the_o spirit_n suffer_v be_v proper_a unto_o they_o it_o be_v the_o same_o mover_n which_o produce_v they_o it_o be_v the_o same_o subject_n which_o receive_v they_o and_o it_o seem_v a_o contradiction_n that_o at_o the_o same_o time_n a_o thing_n shall_v advance_v itself_o and_o go_v backward_o that_o it_o shall_v tend_v to_o two_o opposite_a place_n in_o a_o word_n that_o it_o shall_v be_v and_o not_o be_v in_o the_o place_n where_o it_o be_v we_o must_v therefore_o faith_n that_o there_o be_v two_o way_n whereby_o the_o spirit_n may_v receive_v these_o contrary_a motion_n motion_n how_o the_o spirit_n suffer_v contrary_a motion_n the_o first_o suppose_v they_o to_o have_v divers_a part_n some_o of_o which_o be_v agitate_a after_o one_o manner_n and_o other_o after_o another_o just_o as_o it_o happen_v in_o the_o strait_n where_o contrary_a current_n and_o sea_n meet_v for_o as_o there_o be_v some_o wave_n which_o enter_v into_o one_o another_o some_o which_o justle_n and_o cause_v the_o beat_n they_o give_v one_o another_o to_o boil_v exceed_o the_o same_o thing_n certain_o be_v here_o do_v where_o one_o part_n of_o the_o spirit_n which_o follow_v the_o motion_n of_o grief_n and_o another_o which_o be_v carry_v away_o with_o that_o of_o boldness_n and_o which_o meeting_n on_o the_o way_n cause_v this_o turbulent_a and_o unequal_a agitation_n which_o be_v observable_a in_o this_o passion_n the_o same_o way_n be_v like_o that_o which_o be_v perform_v in_o boldness_n wherein_o the_o spirit_n stiffen_v themselves_o in_o themselves_o and_o yet_o forbear_v not_o to_o dart_v themselves_o forth_o for_o see_v the_o part_n of_o a_o body_n may_v among_o themselves_o suffer_v a_o motion_n which_o may_v be_v different_a from_o that_o wherewith_o the_o whole_a body_n be_v agitate_a as_o it_o happen_v to_o the_o arm_n when_o at_o the_o same_o time_n we_o stiffen_v and_o stretch_v it_o forth_o so_o it_o may_v also_o be_v that_o the_o spirit_n may_v retire_v in_o themselves_o and_o at_o the_o same_o time_n be_v violent_o drive_v into_o the_o exterior_a part_n and_o true_o as_o grief_n make_v its_o impression_n before_o boldness_n because_o we_o must_v resent_v a_o injury_n before_o we_o will_v our_o revenge_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o at_o that_o instant_n the_o spirit_n restrain_v themselves_o so_o that_o boldness_n come_v after_o and_o not_o drive_v grief_n away_o it_o must_v raise_v the_o spirit_n restrain_v as_o they_o be_v and_o without_o make_v they_o lose_v the_o disposition_n it_o find_v they_o in_o drive_v they_o to_o those_o place_n where_o they_o be_v necessary_a now_o although_o in_o little_a anger_n be_v it_o may_v happen_v that_o the_o spirit_n will_v be_v move_v only_o after_o the_o latter_a manner_n yet_o common_o they_o be_v by_o both_o sort_n at_o once_o and_o it_o must_v necessary_o be_v the_o better_a to_o conceive_v this_o great_a storm_n which_o they_o raise_v in_o the_o vein_n we_o must_v fancy_v to_o ourselves_o that_o they_o do_v not_o only_o restrain_v themselves_o as_o we_o have_v say_v but_o that_o there_o be_v some_o which_o run_v and_o fly_v to_o the_o heart_n and_o other_o which_o issue_n out_o and_o impetuous_o cast_v themselves_o forth_o and_o that_o in_o this_o encounter_n which_o be_v thereby_o make_v they_o embroyl_n and_o confound_v themselves_o they_o justle_v and_o raise_v themselves_o up_o and_o so_o they_o make_v a_o current_n full_a of_o boiling_n and_o of_o foam_n it_o be_v true_a that_o according_a as_o grief_n or_o boldness_n predominate_v in_o this_o passion_n the_o ebb_a and_o flow_v of_o the_o spirit_n be_v strong_a or_o weak_a for_o when_o grief_n be_v great_a which_o be_v proper_o what_o we_o say_v be_v to_o be_v vex_v there_o be_v more_o spirit_n which_o retire_v to_o the_o heart_n then_o there_o be_v which_o be_v dart_v forth_o on_o the_o contrary_a when_o boldness_n be_v great_a as_o when_o anger_n be_v violent_a and_o turn_v even_o into_o fury_n there_o be_v more_o spirit_n which_o dart_v themselves_o forth_o then_o retire_v and_o than_o although_o the_o shock_n which_o they_o give_v themselves_o can_v be_v so_o great_a and_o seem_v to_o be_v unable_a to_o cause_v this_o agitation_n which_o be_v when_o they_o be_v of_o equal_a force_n yet_o this_o hinder_v not_o that_o trouble_n and_o tempest_n to_o be_v therein_o form_v with_o the_o same_o violence_n which_o the_o excess_n of_o this_o passion_n require_v forasmuch_o as_o if_o the_o shock_n be_v not_o then_o perform_v by_o the_o encounter_n of_o these_o opposite_a motion_n yet_o it_o be_v make_v by_o the_o frequent_a arrival_n of_o the_o spirit_n which_o like_o impetuous_a flood_n precipitate_v themselves_o on_o
