it_o be_v true_a that_o all_o the_o sense_n be_v intelligencer_n to_o the_o soul_n less_o or_o more_o for_o though_o they_o have_v their_o distinct_a limit_n and_o proper_a object_n assign_v they_o by_o nature_n yet_o she_o be_v able_a to_o use_v their_o service_n even_o in_o the_o most_o abstract_a notion_n and_o arbitrary_a institution_n but_o with_o this_o difference_n that_o nature_n seem_v to_o have_v fit_v two_o hear_v and_o see_v more_o particular_o for_o her_o service_n and_o other_o two_o taste_v and_o smell_a more_o gross_a and_o material_a for_o her_o dull_a and_o heavy_a

progress_n of_o the_o follow_a discourse_n wherefore_o be_v here_o to_o speak_v of_o the_o interpretation_n of_o arbitrary_a sign_n impress_v by_o the_o rational_a soul_n and_o by_o it_o alone_o upon_o the_o object_n of_o the_o sense_n most_o fit_v for_o that_o use_n i_o will_v take_v notice_n of_o the_o most_o usual_a or_o at_o least_o of_o the_o most_o easy_a and_o practicable_a way_n of_o
