circle_n round_o of_o honesty_n no_o end_n in_o it_o be_v find_v to_o square_a this_o circle_n many_o think_v it_o fit_a but_o side_n to_o take_v without_o end_n hard_o be_v it_o prudence_n and_o

must_v point_v justice_n line_n draw_v down_o to_o fortitude_n that_o corner_n joint_n then_o fortitude_n must_v draw_v in_o equal_a length_n to_o prudence_n line_n temperance_n must_v give_v the_o

the_o circle_n round_o you_o will_v find_v be_v square_v with_o the_o four_o virtue_n of_o the_o mind_n a_o circle_n square_v in_o prose_n a_o circle_n be_v a_o line_n without_o end_n and_o a_o

with_o the_o round_a figure_n honesty_n be_v the_o circle_n without_o end_n or_o by-respect_n but_o be_v honest_a for_o honesty_n sake_n but_o to_o square_v this_o circle_n it_o be_v very_o

not_o honesty_n care_v not_o to_o live_v but_o let_v we_o see_v how_o we_o can_v square_v this_o circle_n of_o honesty_n first_o draw_v four_o line_n prudence_n temperance_n 〈◊〉_d and_o justice_n these_o four_o line_n let_v they_o be_v cross_a parallel_n that_o they_o may_v be_v longitude_n and_o latitude_n to_o each_o other_o and_o at_o each_o end_n of_o every_o line_n make_v a_o point_n as_o

a_o point_n at_o every_o angle_n as_o obedience_n humility_n respect_n and_o reverence_n and_o thus_o the_o square_n measure_v with_o truth_n the_o line_n will_v be_v equal_a with_o the_o circle_n of_o honesty_n the_o trasection_n cut_a the_o line_n of_o wisdom_n into_o three_o part_n prudence_n experience_n and_o judgement_n then_o draw_v a_o line_n of_o discretion_n equal_a to_o the_o line_n

these_o line_n measure_v with_o the_o rule_n of_o reason_n and_o you_o will_v find_v it_o equal_a to_o the_o line_n of_o wisdom_n join_v these_o line_n together_o truth_n make_v the_o angle_n this_o
