rule_n how_o far_o we_o shall_v strive_v against_o pain_n for_o it_o be_v not_o so_o much_o the_o question_n whether_o pain_n be_v evil_a or_o not_o as_o the_o business_n to_o fortify_v the_o mind_n against_o impatience_n under_o pain_n ay_o the_o stoic_n bring_v little_a argument_n to_o prove_v it_o not_o to_o be_v evil_a as_o though_o it_o be_v a_o contest_v about_o word_n and_o no_o real_a

who_o contrary_a to_o their_o own_o principle_n in_o a_o bravado_n give_v out_o that_o they_o count_v pain_n pleasant_a or_o at_o the_o worst_a but_o indifferent_a now_o attack_n the_o stoic_n who_o
