man_n be_v compose_v of_o mind_n and_o body_n the_o evil_n ply_v and_o bent_n that_o be_v give_v to_o the_o latter_a during_o one_o youth_n prove_v often_o in_o the_o sequel_n of_o one_o life_n a_o

wherewith_o they_o be_v torment_v all_o their_o life_n time_n one_o may_v say_v that_o these_o be_v fault_n of_o the_o mind_n but_o they_o have_v their_o permament_n cause_n in_o the_o body_n and_o that_o be_v the_o reason_n they_o continue_v in_o they_o even_o when_o the_o mind_n appear_v absolute_o free_a from_o they_o for_o behold_v how_o for_o example_n sake_n many_o become_v subject_n to_o

32._o when_o either_o of_o these_o be_v want_v the_o defect_n must_v be_v supply_v by_o the_o rest_n thus_o the_o great_a address_n of_o a_o master_n be_v to_o apply_v those_o under_o his_o care_n to_o such_o study_n as_o they_o be_v natural_o most_v incline_v to_o there_o be_v some_o child_n almost_o only_o to_o be_v exercise_v in_o what_o depend_v on_o memory_n because_o their_o ●_z be_v strong_a and_o their_o judgement_n weak_a and_o there_o be_v other_o who_o ought_v immediate_o to_o be_v set_v on_o work_n about_o thing_n of_o judgement_n because_o they_o have_v more_o of_o that_o than_o of_o memory_n 33._o proper_o speak_v neither_o master_n nor_o outward_a instruction_n they_o give_v make_v learner_n comprehend_v thing_n these_o only_o expose_v they_o to_o the_o interior_a light_n of_o the_o mind_n by_o which_o alone_o they_o be_v comprehend_v so_o that_o when_o one_o do_v not_o meet_v with_o this_o light_n instruction_n prove_v as_o useless_a as_o it_o will_v be_v to_o

understanding_n of_o child_n be_v almost_o total_o over_o cast_v they_o discover_v only_o some_o little_a glimpse_n of_o light_n so_o that_o the_o great_a work_n consist_v in_o manage_v these_o small_a ray_n in_o increase_v they_o and_o place_v therein_o whatsoever_o one_o will_v make_v they_o comprehend_v 35._o hence_o it_o be_v that_o it_o be_v so_o difficult_a to_o give_v general_a rule_n for_o the_o instruction_n of_o any_o one_o because_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v proportion_v to_o that_o mixture_n of_o light_n and_o darkness_n which_o be_v various_a according_a to_o the_o

may_v nevertheless_o in_o general_n be_v say_v that_o the_o light_n or_o knowledge_n of_o child_n depend_v very_o much_o on_o sense_n one_o ought_v as_o much_o as_o possible_a fasten_v to_o sensible_a
