be_v stupidity_n not_o to_o care_v what_o opinion_n man_n have_v of_o we_o which_o cause_v the_o wiseman_n to_o pronounce_v a_o curse_n against_o those_o who_o neglect_v a_o good_a fame_n which_o be_v

whence_o most_o quarrel_n be_v occasion_v by_o man_n accuse_v one_o another_o of_o want_n of_o courage_n or_o other_o appurtenance_n of_o that_o virtue_n the_o three_o say_v that_o which_o we_o call_v

of_o all_o creature_n endeavour_n to_o make_v himself_o thought_n what_o he_o be_v not_o because_o it_o be_v essential_a to_o he_o to_o desire_v good_a and_o his_o perverse_a inclination_n not_o

honest_a the_o profitable_a and_o the_o delightful_a now_o of_o these_o three_o only_o the_o honest_a be_v call_v the_o good_a of_o man_n because_o the_o two_o latter_a usual_o corrupt_v he_o the_o

the_o latter_a and_o not_o anxious_a for_o honour_n but_o i_o conceive_v we_o may_v know_v person_n of_o honour_n by_o the_o little_a account_n they_o make_v of_o injury_n which_o seem_v to_o tend_v to_o their_o disparagement_n especial_o when_o they_o think_v the_o same_o do_v not_o belong_v unto_o they_o and_o they_o who_o be_v worthy_a of_o honour_n seek_v it_o least_o and_o be_v not_o
