and_o clammy_a humour_n continue_v some_o whole_a year_n without_o eat_v or_o drink_v now_o as_o this_o temper_n of_o the_o silkworm_n discover_v to_o we_o the_o cause_n why_o it_o can_v live_v so_o long_o without_o meat_n so_o this_o entire_a abstinence_n in_o which_o it_o pass_v a_o great_a part_n of_o its_o life_n may_v be_v a_o new_a confirmation_n to_o we_o that_o it_o have_v the_o same_o temper_n which_o we_o attribute_v to_o it_o at_o first_o for_o though_o for_o a_o certain_a season_n it_o eat_v abundant_o enough_o of_o which_o there_o may_v be_v easy_o some_o other_o particular_a reason_n yet_o consider_v its_o whole_a life_n in_o gross_a it_o must_v pass_v for_o one_o of_o the_o sober_a creature_n these_o be_v then_o in_o my_o opinion_n the_o cause_n of_o whatsoever_o appear_v marvellous_a in_o the_o silkworm_n if_o any_o one_o have_v a_o mind_n to_o think_v that_o there_o be_v more_o strange_a and_o more_o occult_a one_o it_o be_v not_o my_o intent_n that_o this_o discourse_n shall_v hinder_v he_o but_o yet_o i_o believe_v that_o as_o we_o oftentimes_o do_v not_o see_v many_o thing_n because_o they_o be_v too_o far_o distant_a from_o the_o eye_n of_o our_o mind_n so_o at_o other_o time_n we_o do_v not_o see_v they_o because_o they_o be_v too_o near_o and_o that_o we_o search_v at_o the_o other_o end_n of_o the_o world_n for_o that_o which_o lie_v before_o our_o nose_n and_o that_o the_o great_a eagerness_n that_o our_o understanding_n use_v to_o arrive_v at_o their_o cause_n make_v it_o go_v much_o beyond_o they_o prob._n 40._o why_o be_v good_a man_n oftentime_o subject_a to_o a_o light_a promptitude_n of_o choler_n do_v they_o not_o only_o seem_v to_o be_v so_o because_o they_o be_v more_o free_a and_o open_a and_o so_o know_v not_o how_o to_o dissemble_v the_o small_a anger_n and_o least_o discontentment_n that_o arise_v in_o they_o but_o let_v they_o present_o appear_v in_o their_o eye_n and_o word_n whereas_o those_o that_o be_v less_o free_a do_v conceal_v they_o what_o they_o can_v possible_o or_o else_o be_v it_o that_o those_o that_o have_v honest_a and_o good_a mind_n be_v angry_a for_o many_o thing_n that_o regard_v not_o their_o particular_a interest_n as_o for_o example_n for_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o for_o any_o thing_n that_o respect_v honesty_n and_o piety_n so_o that_o as_o these_o be_v general_a thing_n which_o come_v every_o moment_n into_o our_o discourse_n ordinary_a conversation_n offer_v they_o more_o often_o occasion_n to_o speak_v with_o heat_n and_o emotion_n and_o in_o some_o sort_n to_o be_v provoke_v whereas_o a_o brutish_a man_n to_o who_o all_o thing_n be_v indifferent_a except_o his_o own_o proper_a interest_n can_v hear_v without_o any_o disturbance_n all_o kind_n of_o discourse_n which_o he_o be_v not_o the_o subject_n of_o be_v they_o never_o so_o strange_a which_o make_v he_o often_o appear_v more_o sweet_a and_o gentle_a because_o his_o interest_n be_v some_o particular_a thing_n and_o little_o know_v to_o other_o they_o scarce_o ever_o come_v to_o be_v the_o matter_n of_o a_o common_a discourse_n or_o else_o may_v we_o not_o give_v light_n to_o this_o problem_n by_o that_o which_o aristotle_n say_v that_o choler_n be_v incline_v to_o obey_v reason_n but_o that_o it_o obey_v it_o too_o soon_o and_o stay_v not_o until_o the_o first_o appearance_n of_o reason_n have_v give_v place_n to_o another_o more_o clear_a and_o solid_a and_o may_v it_o not_o be_v say_v that_o if_o so_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o good_a mind_n must_v natural_o have_v some_o seed_n of_o a_o light_a promptitude_n to_o choler_n because_o the_o inclination_n ready_o to_o obey_v reason_n be_v without_o doubt_v a_o good_a disposition_n of_o mind_n and_o a_o token_n of_o excellence_n though_o by_o accident-there_a may_v arise_v from_o it_o vicious_a action_n and_o other_o inconvenience_n or_o else_o may_v we_o not_o add_v further_o that_o one_o shall_v have_v less_o reason_n to_o wonder_v that_o good_a man_n have_v many_o time_n such_o a_o disposition_n if_o it_o be_v consider_v that_o there_o be_v some_o kind_n of_o anger_n so_o handsome_a that_o one_o may_v maintain_v they_o mark_v out_o more_o of_o goodness_n tenderness_n and_o love_n of_o good_a than_o even_o motion_n of_o pity_n or_o goodwill_n because_o in_o the_o motion_n of_o affection_n and_o pity_n the_o soul_n do_v mere_o desire_v to_o do_v good_a but_o those_o of_o a_o generous_a and_o laudable_a anger_n be_v the_o motion_n of_o a_o soul_n that_o do_v so_o much_o love_v good_a and_o hate_n evil_a that_o it_o trouble_v itself_o at_o it_o even_o to_o fury_n and_o become_v foolish_a for_o a_o time_n it_o may_v indeed_o be_v further_o allege_v in_o favour_n of_o this_o paradox_n that_o the_o tenderness_n of_o nature_n of_o any_o creature_n appear_v not_o so_o much_o for_o example_n when_o it_o take_v care_n to_o give_v food_n to_o its_o little_a one_o as_o when_o full_a of_o anger_n and_o as_o it_o be_v in_o a_o fury_n it_o lay_v on_o load_n with_o its_o wing_n or_o horn_n or_o other_o arm_n that_o nature_n have_v give_v it_o on_o those_o that_o will_v come_v too_o near_o they_o or_o else_o in_o conclusion_n we_o may_v say_v that_o there_o be_v certain_a emotion_n of_o choler_n in_o which_o a_o man_n have_v no_o intention_n to_o do_v any_o hurt_n to_o those_o of_o who_o he_o complain_v with_o sharp_a word_n but_o rather_o to_o incite_v they_o to_o produce_v their_o justification_n to_o be_v able_a to_o find_v they_o innocent_a or_o less_o culpable_a and_o to_o continue_v by_o this_o mean_n to_o love_v they_o so_o that_o as_o they_o do_v not_o proceed_v out_o of_o malice_n but_o tenderness_n there_o be_v no_o cause_n to_o wonder_v that_o good_a man_n be_v subject_a thereunto_o and_o that_o they_o show_v a_o good_a nature_n like_v in_o this_o to_o lightning_n that_o appear_v in_o summer_n evening_n and_o be_v oftentimes_o sign_n of_o fair_a weather_n whereas_o they_o shall_v seem_v rather_o to_o presage_v foul_a prob._n 41._o whence_o come_v it_o that_o they_o say_v the_o love_n of_o grandfather_n to_o their_o grandchild_n be_v great_a than_o that_o of_o their_o father_n be_v it_o not_o because_o a_o man_n attain_v through_o long_a care_n to_o have_v a_o grandchild_n then_o to_o have_v a_o son_n and_o that_o always_o that_o which_o we_o acquire_v through_o more_o care_n be_v more_o dear_a to_o we_o or_o else_o be_v not_o a_o grandchild_n dear_a because_o it_o have_v be_v a_o long_a time_n desire_v or_o else_o do_v we_o not_o look_v upon_o it_o as_o a_o more_o rare_a favour_n and_o such_o as_o heaven_n eommunicate_v only_o to_o few_o person_n which_o make_v we_o love_v it_o the_o more_o because_o general_o all_o rare_a thing_n have_v a_o particular_a allurement_n for_o our_o mind_n or_o else_o be_v not_o a_o grandchild_n more_o belove_v of_o his_o grandfather_n then_o of_o his_o father_n because_o that_o his_o grandfather_n as_o be_v more_o old_a and_o nigh_a his_o death_n do_v for_o this_o reason_n desire_v the_o more_o to_o live_v again_o in_o another_o or_o else_o be_v it_o because_o the_o love_n we_o bear_v to_o those_o that_o proceed_v from_o we_o arise_v from_o a_o desire_n to_o extend_v our_o be_v successive_o to_o many_o generation_n he_o that_o by_o this_o natural_a course_n be_v more_o remove_v show_v to_o we_o this_o design_n more_o advance_v and_o so_o do_v more_o touch_v our_o inclination_n or_o else_o be_v it_o because_o the_o father_n love_v his_o son_n only_o for_o his_o own_o sake_n but_o the_o grandfather_n love_v he_o for_o his_o own_o sake_n and_o for_o his_o son_n sake_n too_o and_o see_v in_o he_o the_o image_n of_o himself_o and_o of_o he_o who_o he_o have_v beget_v and_o that_o these_o two_o divers_a consideration_n do_v produce_v in_o he_o two_o divers_a tenderness_n very_o powerful_a indeed_o this_o reason_n be_v very_o likely_a for_o to_o go_v about_o to_o object_n that_o the_o father_n have_v likewise_o two_o divers_a cause_n of_o love_a his_o son_n because_o he_o may_v love_v he_o for_o the_o grandfather_n sake_n this_o make_v nothing_o to_o the_o purpose_n since_o that_o as_o every_o one_o know_v the_o affection_n which_o blood_n inspire_v have_v much_o less_o force_n in_o ascend_v than_o in_o descend_v but_o if_o still_o another_o reason_n must_v be_v give_v of_o this_o problem_n one_o may_v also_o say_v that_o perhaps_o the_o affection_n of_o grandfather_n do_v only_o seem_v to_o be_v great_a than_o that_o of_o father_n because_o the_o son_n be_v in_o a_o more_o particular_a manner_n the_o very_a blood_n and_o substance_n of_o the_o father_n the_o father_n for_o this_o reason_n think_v that_o to_o love_v he_o very_o much_o be_v to_o love_v himself_o very_o much_o and_o that_o therefore_o he_o
have_v in_o they_o grave_a or_o sharp_a sound_n high_a or_o low_o slow_a or_o swift_a one_o whereas_o in_o noise_n that_o be_v uniform_a it_o be_v precise_o the_o same_o object_n which_o be_v always_o present_a to_o the_o faculty_n and_o that_o by_o this_o mean_v it_o may_v after_o it_o have_v efface_v all_o other_o object_n of_o our_o thought_n efface_v itself_o also_o and_o make_v itself_o imperceivable_a by_o the_o continuance_n of_o its_o action_n as_o we_o say_v and_o so_o beget_v sleep_n or_o else_o be_v it_o that_o the_o pleasure_n which_o be_v give_v we_o by_o the_o noise_n of_o a_o brook_n or_o a_o fountain_n be_v a_o pleasure_n pure_o sensual_a and_o of_o the_o ear_n only_o but_o that_o the_o pleasure_n which_o the_o harmony_n of_o a_o musical_a instrument_n create_v be_v not_o a_o pleasure_n of_o the_o ear_n only_o but_o also_o of_o the_o imagination_n and_o of_o the_o memory_n since_o that_o a_o man_n must_v compare_v in_o it_o one_o concord_n with_o another_o and_o consider_v the_o proportion_n of_o the_o sound_n to_o one_o another_o to_o dislike_v or_o approve_v it_o and_o that_o see_v it_o exercise_v the_o fancy_n and_o the_o memory_n it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v wonder_v if_o it_o be_v not_o so_o proper_a to_o make_v a_o man_n sleep_v prob._n 27._o what_o be_v the_o reason_n we_o aggravate_v our_o misery_n and_o love_n to_o persuade_v other_o that_o we_o be_v very_o unfortunate_a if_o we_o search_v why_o we_o aggravate_v our_o misfortune_n we_o can_v deceive_v ourselves_o in_o say_v it_o be_v to_o persuade_v other_o that_o we_o be_v very_o unfortunate_a but_o it_o be_v a_o great_a difficulty_n to_o know_v for_o what_o reason_n we_o desire_v they_o shall_v believe_v so_o because_o oftentimes_o they_o be_v person_n that_o we_o do_v not_o hope_v to_o receive_v any_o succour_n from_o and_o that_o our_o very_a misery_n render_v we_o less_o able_a to_o be_v useful_a to_o other_o may_v hinder_v many_o base_a and_o mercenary_a mind_n from_o do_v we_o any_o good_a to_o inquire_v then_o the_o cause_n of_o this_o humour_n of_o the_o afflict_a be_v it_o not_o in_o the_o first_o place_n that_o they_o be_v never_o assure_v that_o any_o man_n may_v not_o for_o the_o future_a be_v in_o a_o capacity_n to_o help_v he_o and_o therefore_o they_o tell_v their_o misfortune_n to_o all_o they_o see_v and_o aggravate_v they_o to_o they_o to_o the_o end_n that_o if_o hereafter_o they_o shall_v discover_v any_o mean_n to_o succour_v they_o the_o pity_n which_o they_o have_v raise_v in_o they_o may_v present_o produce_v its_o effect_n or_o else_o do_v they_o desire_v to_o have_v all_o that_o come_v near_o they_o know_v their_o evil_n and_o believe_v it_o to_o be_v very_o great_a thereby_o to_o incite_v they_o to_o give_v they_o some_o consolation_n or_o do_v they_o not_o hope_n that_o he_o to_o who_o they_o have_v aggravate_v their_o misery_n if_o he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o help_v they_o may_v at_o the_o least_o pray_v for_o they_o and_o that_o these_o prayer_n may_v prevail_v with_o the_o divine_a goodness_n or_o else_o do_v they_o not_o desire_v that_o those_o very_a person_n from_o who_o they_o can_v hope_v for_o any_o succour_n shall_v bemoan_v they_o for_o that_o they_o think_v that_o some_o body_n else_o that_o shall_v have_v the_o mean_n to_o deliver_v they_o from_o their_o misery_n will_v do_v it_o so_o much_o the_o more_o willing_o if_o he_o see_v that_o many_o person_n do_v compassionate_a he_o and_o be_v affect_v therewith_o because_o the_o more_o general_a the_o good_a be_v which_o we_o be_v entreat_v to_o do_v and_o the_o more_o person_n it_o regard_v the_o more_o ready_a be_v we_o to_o do_v it_o or_o else_o be_v it_o that_o to_o be_v belove_v be_v in_o itself_o a_o good_a we_o do_v therefore_o exaggerate_v our_o misery_n thereby_o to_o raise_v pity_n and_o by_o pity_n love_n because_o we_o know_v natural_o that_o pity_n be_v so_o near_o to_o love_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o more_o easy_a then_o to_o slip_v from_o one_o to_o the_o other_o or_o else_o do_v we_o not_o desire_v that_o a_o man_n shall_v believe_v that_o we_o suffer_v very_o much_o because_o we_o desire_v he_o shall_v talk_v much_o and_o long_a of_o we_o both_o while_o we_o live_v and_o after_o our_o death_n and_o that_o we_o foresee_v that_o man_n will_v talk_v so_o much_o the_o more_o of_o we_o as_o they_o think_v that_o our_o misery_n have_v be_v great_a or_o be_v it_o not_o out_o of_o a_o vain_a affectation_n of_o glory_n which_o be_v annex_v to_o constancy_n and_o to_o be_v in_o some_o sort_n admire_v by_o other_o that_o we_o paint_v forth_o as_o very_o excessive_a incomparable_a and_o in_o a_o word_n much_o great_a than_o they_o be_v the_o evil_n which_o man_n see_v we_o suffer_v with_o so_o much_o patience_n our_o vanity_n be_v so_o essential_a and_o unite_a to_o our_o soul_n that_o grief_n itself_o can_v expel_v it_o and_o that_o that_o accompany_v it_o even_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o torment_n upon_o the_o rack_n and_o at_o the_o stake_n as_o the_o stoic_n say_v of_o their_o wiseman_n happiness_n or_o else_o do_v we_o aggravate_v our_o misery_n because_o through_o humane_a weakness_n we_o do_v in_o our_o misery_n many_o time_n think_v that_o the_o providence_n which_o govern_v the_o universe_n do_v we_o some_o kind_n of_o wrong_n and_o that_o to_o prove_v it_o we_o dare_v not_o allege_v our_o

we_o believe_v that_o all_o thing_n have_v their_o course_n in_o the_o world_n and_o succeed_v one_o another_o do_v we_o not_o for_o this_o reason_n delight_n to_o persuade_v ourselves_o that_o we_o have_v be_v for_o the_o time_n pass_v very_o unhappy_a to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o may_v build_v upon_o this_o foundation_n hope_n of_o be_v happy_a for_o the_o future_a and_o of_o see_v our_o felicity_n return_v in_o its_o course_n as_o the_o day_n return_v after_o night_n summer_n after_o winter_n and_o fair_a weather_n after_o a_o long_a storm_n or_o as_o caesar_n very_o wise_o paint_v forth_o to_o his_o soldier_n the_o enemy_n force_n much_o great_a than_o they_o be_v to_o the_o end_n that_o afterward_o see_v they_o less_o they_o shall_v less_o fear_v they_o and_o be_v provide_v of_o resolution_n and_o courage_n more_o then_o enough_o do_v not_o our_o soul_n by_o a_o like_a artifice_n fain_o to_o its_o self_n its_o misfortune_n great_a than_o they_o be_v to_o the_o end_n that_o afterward_o return_v to_o consider_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o business_n it_o may_v receive_v some_o comfort_n in_o undeceive_v its_o self_n and_o that_o when_o the_o violence_n of_o its_o evil_n shall_v return_v to_o oppress_v it_o it_o may_v have_v lay_v in_o a_o large_a provision_n of_o courage_n and_o find_v its_o self_n provide_v of_o more_o constancy_n than_o be_v requisite_a for_o the_o undergo_n of_o it_o or_o else_o do_v we_o not_o aggravate_v our_o misery_n to_o provoke_v ourselves_o to_o weep_v more_o abundant_o because_o we_o find_v that_o tear_n be_v a_o refreshment_n to_o we_o and_o therefore_o also_o in_o tragedy_n afflict_a person_n do_v common_o exhort_v one_o another_o to_o shed_v abundance_n of_o tear_n or_o else_o to_o conclude_v do_v we_o thus_o aggravate_v our_o evil_n because_o we_o think_v that_o great_a and_o excellent_a thing_n have_v only_o great_a destiny_n either_o in_o good_a or_o evil_n it_o be_v some_o token_n of_o elevation_n and_o excellence_n to_o have_v be_v exercise_v by_o great_a evil_n if_o any_o man_n object_n to_o i_o that_o herein_o we_o shall_v make_v but_o a_o simple_a consequence_n i_o do_v free_o confess_v it_o but_o i_o believe_v he_o will_v also_o grant_v i_o that_o the_o mind_n of_o man_n have_v very_o many_o weakness_n and_o folly_n and_o especial_o that_o he_o be_v so_o passionate_a for_o his_o own_o excellence_n that_o he_o let_v not_o slip_v by_o in_o vain_a the_o least_o shadow_n of_o the_o least_o mark_n that_o he_o can_v give_v to_o himself_o of_o it_o and_o therefore_o we_o see_v many_o man_n blame_v themselves_o for_o have_v a_o bad_a memory_n that_o from_o thence_o they_o may_v draw_v some_o advantage_n for_o their_o judgement_n because_o though_o they_o see_v this_o consequence_n can_v but_o be_v very_o weak_a since_o that_o there_o be_v everywhere_o thousand_o of_o blockhead_n that_o have_v neither_o memory_n nor_o judgement_n yet_o they_o think_v that_o this_o be_v some_o slight_a sign_n of_o it_o because_o of_o a_o opinion_n that_o be_v receive_v by_o many_o to_o this_o purpose_n the_o truth_n whereof_o we_o do_v not_o here_o examine_v and_o that_o which_o

indeed_o it_o seem_v to_o be_v for_o this_o reason_n chief_o that_o the_o soul_n be_v thus_o afflict_v do_v thus_o fly_v from_o gay_a and_o delightsome_a object_n and_o love_v sad_a one_o just_o as_o

indeed_o that_o pleasure_n may_v help_v to_o produce_v sleep_n methinks_v may_v further_o be_v prove_v in_o that_o they_o which_o be_v in_o a_o great_a and_o profound_a pleasure_n whether_o of_o

as_o night_n come_v when_o the_o sun_n cease_v to_o shine_v beside_o noise_n that_o tickle_v the_o ear_n do_v make_v we_o sleep_v not_o only_o because_o they_o give_v we_o pleasure_n but_o also_o

how_o impossible_a it_o will_v be_v for_o he_o to_o despoil_v himself_o of_o what_o ever_o there_o be_v good_a and_o laudable_a in_o his_o nature_n and_o to_o go_v quite_o contrary_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o reason_n and_o that_o this_o make_v he_o sometime_o have_v too_o ill_a a_o opinion_n of_o himself_o and_o to_o pass_v beyond_o the_o bound_n of_o truth_n in_o blame_v himself_o prob._n 49._o what_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o according_a to_o the_o common_a say_n of_o the_o poet_n and_o of_o aristotle_n himself_o in_o the_o second_o book_n of_o his_o politic_n valiant_a and_o courageous_a person_n be_v most_o subject_a to_o love_v be_v it_o not_o because_o courage_n and_o a_o inclination_n to_o love_n have_v one_o and_o the_o same_o original_a in_o the_o temperament_n namely_o heat_n of_o blood_n which_o may_v be_v perceive_v in_o that_o the_o age_n wherein_o man_n be_v most_o courageous_a through_o the_o heat_n of_o his_o blood_n be_v that_o wherein_o he_o be_v most_o incline_v to_o love_n or_o else_o be_v it_o not_o because_o love_n be_v a_o passion_n which_o have_v some_o beauty_n and_o nobleness_n and_o that_o man_n true_o courageous_a as_o they_o have_v a_o more_o noble_a soul_n so_o have_v they_o also_o a_o great_a propension_n to_o all_o the_o passion_n that_o have_v any_o ray_n of_o nobleness_n and_o beauty_n and_o proceed_v partly_o from_o a_o good_a principle_n indeed_o we_o see_v that_o for_o this_o reason_n they_o be_v subject_a to_o ambition_n because_o ambition_n have_v some_o mixture_n of_o generosity_n and_o of_o the_o love_n of_o that_o which_o be_v honest_a and_o to_o opinionativeness_n because_o it_o have_v a_o shadow_n of_o constancy_n but_o that_o on_o the_o contrary_n they_o be_v far_o than_o other_o man_n from_o avarice_n cruelty_n and_o desire_v of_o revenge_n because_o these_o motion_n of_o the_o soul_n have_v not_o the_o least_o footstep_n of_o any_o nobleness_n and_o beauty_n now_o to_o show_v that_o love_n be_v a_o passion_n which_o have_v some_o nobleness_n and_o something_o of_o praiseworthy_a we_o may_v bring_v this_o reason_n that_o whatsoever_o some_o say_v that_o will_v decide_v this_o business_n by_o fine_a expression_n and_o have_v their_o jest_n pass_v for_o oracle_n a_o true_a lover_n do_v in_o some_o sort_n love_n beauty_n for_o itself_o and_o not_o only_o for_o the_o hope_n of_o a_o base_a and_o brutish_a pleasure_n for_o he_o not_o only_o humble_v himself_o before_o the_o belove_a object_n as_o we_o humble_v ourselves_o before_o a_o great_a man_n by_o constraint_n and_o with_o repugnance_n and_o to_o obtain_v some_o good_a of_o he_o but_o he_o also_o take_v pleasure_n in_o this_o very_a act_n of_o submission_n and_o the_o more_o he_o humble_v himself_o with_o innocence_n and_o freeness_n and_o without_o any_o design_n the_o more_o this_o pleasure_n increase_v in_o he_o which_o be_v a_o infallible_a token_n that_o he_o make_v this_o the_o end_n of_o part_n of_o his_o desire_n just_o therefore_o do_v the_o poet_n call_v the_o excess_n of_o love_n handsome_a foolery_n for_o though_o they_o be_v foolery_n in_o that_o they_o choose_v their_o object_n ill_a they_o have_v some_o beauty_n in_o that_o they_o denote_v in_o the_o soul_n where_o they_o be_v form_v some_o violent_a inclination_n to_o love_v perfection_n or_o else_o may_v we_o say_v that_o even_o the_o inclination_n to_o love_v perfection_n be_v the_o sole_a motive_n and_o only_a fountain_n of_o true_a courage_n so_o that_o if_o love_n have_v in_o it_o any_o ray_n or_o spark_n thereof_o it_o be_v no_o wonder_n that_o those_o who_o have_v a_o extreme_a high_a courage_n be_v the_o more_o subject_a to_o it_o or_o else_o be_v it_o that_o it_o be_v a_o hard_a matter_n to_o resist_v at_o once_o two_o contrary_a assault_n because_o this_o seem_v to_o require_v two_o contrary_a disposition_n of_o mind_n and_o that_o for_o this_o reason_n they_o that_o have_v a_o soul_n strong_a to_o resist_v grief_n and_o object_n of_o terror_n be_v many_o time_n extraordinary_a weak_a against_o pleasure_n and_o object_n that_o conquer_v by_o flatter_v our_o sense_n among_o which_o those_o that_o cause_n love_n be_v the_o most_o allure_a certain_o it_o seem_v credible_a when_o we_o consider_v the_o great_a weakness_n with_o which_o man_n the_o most_o famous_a for_o their_o courage_n have_v yield_v to_o pleasure_n of_o this_o kind_n nevertheless_o herein_o their_o courage_n be_v imperfect_a for_o our_o soul_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v firm_a like_o ice_n very_o hard_o freeze_v which_o resist_v the_o blow_n of_o hatchet_n and_o bear_v heavy_a burden_n yet_o make_v less_o resistance_n to_o a_o small_a heat_n and_o to_o a_o ray_n of_o the_o sun_n than_o the_o most_o weak_a thing_n but_o rather_o like_a to_o a_o diamant_n which_o equal_o resist_v all_o assault_n and_o as_o a_o sword_n cut_v alike_o on_o both_o side_n so_o a_o perfect_a and_o complete_a courage_n shall_v be_v whet_v on_o both_o side_n and_o have_v as_o it_o be_v two_o edge_n and_o two_o point_n to_o resist_v equal_o pleasure_n and_o pain_n or_o else_o these_o two_o different_a part_n of_o courage_n which_o we_o now_o speak_v of_o have_v not_o at_o all_o any_o thing_n of_o contrary_a and_o do_v spring_v rather_o from_o the_o same_o fountain_n but_o as_o though_o the_o visual_a faculty_n have_v one_o and_o
