vanish_v away_o at_o the_o rise_n of_o the_o sun_n even_o so_o worldly_a pleasure_n have_v no_o substance_n and_o in_o the_o continuance_n they_o become_v irksome_a and_o yet_o be_v one_o of_o the_o deity_n of_o worldly_a man_n in_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o which_o they_o conceive_v do_v consist_v their_o supreme_a good_a their_o original_a spring_n be_v the_o five_o sense_n first_o the_o sight_n

worldly_a pleasure_n that_o can_v be_v imagine_v proceed_v from_o one_o of_o these_o sense_n how_o can_v it_o then_o be_v possible_a that_o rational_a man_n shall_v be_v so_o mad_a as_o to_o conceive_v their_o supreme_a good_a shall_v consist_v in_o such_o momentary_a vanity_n beside_o it_o be_v daily_o see_v that_o man_n pleasure_n be_v rather_o guide_v by_o fancy_n then_o by_o reason_n and_o more_o by_o inclination_n than_o judgement_n for_o what_o be_v pleasant_a to_o one_o be_v distasteful_a to_o the_o other_o throughout_o the_o five_o sense_n first_o in_o the_o object_n some_o love_n a_o flaxen_a haired_a other_o a_o black_a haired_a woman_n some_o love_n to_o hear_v a_o doleful_a melody_n other_o a_o joyful_a some_o love_n to_o eat_v one_o thing_n and_o some_o another_o nay_o their_o very_a taste_n will_v vary_v although_o they_o eat_v of_o one_o and_o the_o same_o meat_n some_o love_n a_o sweet_a mild_a odour_n other_o a_o strong_a perfume_n and_o for_o their_o feel_n they_o be_v as_o various_a and_o in_o the_o election_n of_o their_o call_n they_o differ_v as_o much_o some_o love_n a_o soldier_n life_n other_o love_v learning_n other_o to_o be_v merchant_n

their_o supreme_a good_a do_v consist_v in_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o their_o pleasure_n than_o there_o must_v of_o necessity_n be_v as_o many_o different_a supreme_a good_n as_o there_o be_v variety_n of_o pleasure_n but_o as_o i_o have_v say_v before_o all_o these_o pleasure_n or_o inclination_n be_v but_o mere_a fancy_n vanity_n and_o vexation_n of_o spirit_n as_o it_o shall_v be_v prove_v by_o
