weak_a and_o which_o st._n paul_n call_v the_o law_n of_o the_o mind_n and_o the_o law_n of_o the_o member_n 7._o i_o say_v in_o the_o divide_a tendency_n of_o these_o two_o because_o sometime_o the_o intellectual_a and_o sensitive_a appetite_n may_v both_o point_v one_o way_n and_o conspire_v in_o the_o same_o object_n as_o it_o do_v either_o in_o man_n very_o wicked_a who_o sin_n with_o unity_n and_o entireness_n of_o consent_n without_o any_o check_n or_o remorse_n from_o the_o superior_a part_n or_o in_o man_n eminent_o good_a who_o have_v reduce_v even_o their_o very_a bodily_a inclination_n to_o the_o order_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o have_v attain_v to_o the_o high_a degree_n of_o mortification_n and_o simplification_n of_o desire_n 11_o and_o it_o may_v yet_o be_v observe_v further_o that_o so_o far_o as_o this_o denomination_n of_o intellectual_a and_o sensitive_a be_v take_v both_o from_o the_o quality_n of_o the_o object_n and_o from_o the_o part_n move_v our_o desire_n may_v be_v at_o the_o same_o time_n both_o intellectual_a and_o sensitive_a for_o that_o desire_n which_o be_v intellectual_a in_o respect_n of_o the_o part_n may_v be_v also_o sensitive_a in_o respect_n of_o the_o object_n for_o we_o may_v will_v a_o sensual_a good_a as_o well_o as_o passionate_o desire_v it_o and_o so_o on_o the_o other_o side_n that_o desire_n which_o be_v sensitive_a in_o respect_n of_o the_o part_n may_v be_v intellectual_a in_o respect_n of_o the_o object_n for_o there_o may_v be_v a_o sensitive_a appetite_n of_o a_o intellectual_a good_a and_o we_o may_v love_v even_o god_n himself_o passionate_o as_o well_o as_o rational_o 12_o thus_o be_v love_n of_o desire_n divide_v in_o general_a into_o intellectual_a and_o sensual_a but_o as_o for_o the_o particular_a kind_n under_o these_o they_o be_v almost_o infinite_a and_o therefore_o i_o shall_v not_o offer_v at_o a_o distinct_a recital_n of_o they_o i_o shall_v only_o remark_n some_o few_o thing_n concern_v intellectual_a love_n and_o by_o the_o way_n shall_v also_o brief_o touch_v upon_o the_o principal_a and_o most_o eminent_a species_n of_o sensual_a love_n and_o so_o end_v this_o section_n 13_o and_o first_o concern_v intellectual_a love_n i_o consider_v that_o the_o general_a object_n of_o it_o be_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d or_o beauty_n for_o intellectual_a love_n be_v that_o who_o object_n be_v a_o intellectual_a good_a and_o a_o intellectual_a good_a be_v that_o which_o please_v the_o intellect_n and_o the_o intellect_n be_v please_v with_o nothing_o but_o as_o it_o be_v proportionable_a harmonious_a and_o some_o way_n or_o other_o beautiful_a whence_o it_o follow_v that_o intellectual_a love_n have_v beauty_n in_o general_n for_o its_o proper_a object_n 14._o but_o then_o this_o beauty_n which_o be_v the_o proper_a object_n of_o intellectual_a love_n be_v either_o the_o first_o and_o original_a beauty_n or_o create_v and_o derivative_a beauty_n if_o the_o first_o and_o original_a beauty_n than_o the_o love_n of_o it_o be_v divine_a love_n and_o if_o this_o be_v in_o a_o very_a high_a degree_n such_o as_o be_v the_o product_n of_o a_o intense_a contemplation_n then_o it_o be_v what_o we_o call_v seraphic_a love_n which_o be_v the_o great_a exaltation_n and_o perfection_n of_o intellectual_a love_n and_o withal_o the_o great_a happiness_n the_o soul_n of_o man_n be_v capable_a of_o in_o this_o state_n happiness_n as_o i_o have_v show_v at_o large_a in_o another_o treatise_n 15_o but_o if_o it_o be_v create_v and_o derivative_a beauty_n than_o i_o consider_v that_o either_o we_o ascend_v by_o and_o from_o the_o love_n of_o it_o to_o the_o love_n of_o the_o first_o and_o originary_a beauty_n or_o else_o we_o stick_v there_o or_o we_o descend_v to_o the_o desire_n of_o corporal_a contact_n and_o the_o delight_n arise_v from_o it_o if_o we_o take_v occasion_n to_o ascend_v then_o it_o be_v what_o we_o call_v platonic_a love_n which_o as_o i_o have_v elsewhere_o more_o at_o large_a explain_v the_o notion_n be_v the_o ascent_n of_o the_o soul_n to_o the_o love_n of_o the_o divine_a beauty_n from_o the_o aspect_n of_o beauty_n in_o body_n but_o if_o we_o terminate_v and_o stick_v in_o this_o sensible_a form_n or_o pulchritude_n though_o this_o affection_n be_v not_o so_o noble_a and_o generous_a as_o that_o which_o ascend_v high_o yet_o still_o this_o be_v pure_a intellectual_a love_n so_o long_o as_o it_o be_v free_a from_o all_o desire_n of_o corporal_a application_n and_o for_o distinction_n sake_n may_v be_v call_v the_o love_n of_o abstract_a beauty_n 16_o and_o let_v not_o any_o one_o think_v it_o strange_a that_o i_o make_v this_o abstract_a love_n of_o sensitive_a beauty_n a_o intellectual_a love._n for_o beauty_n let_v the_o subject_n of_o its_o inherence_n be_v what_o it_o will_v consist_v in_o harmony_n and_o proportion_n which_o be_v the_o immediate_a good_a of_o the_o soul_n that_o only_o be_v capable_a both_o of_o understand_v it_o and_o of_o be_v primary_o affect_v with_o it_o and_o though_o we_o give_v it_o the_o name_n of_o sensible_a beauty_n yet_o that_o be_v only_o because_o the_o sense_n be_v the_o instrument_n of_o conveyance_n not_o as_o be_v the_o part_n primely_a affect_v and_o to_o distinguish_v it_o from_o those_o beauty_n which_o be_v immediate_o intelligible_a such_o as_o the_o beauty_n of_o truth_n the_o beauty_n of_o virtue_n and_o the_o like_a but_o in_o reference_n to_o the_o part_n direct_o and_o immediate_o affect_v all_o beauty_n even_o sensible_a
