appear_v first_o in_o that_o hatred_n have_v for_o object_v the_o evil_n which_o we_o conceive_v of_o the_o party_n who_o we_o hate_v presuppose_v he_o to_o be_v wicked_a either_o in_o our_o own_o

in_o a_o passion_n which_o do_v afflict_v we_o for_o the_o prosperity_n of_o another_o man_n as_o if_o he_o do_v we_o some_o injury_n in_o be_v happy_a but_o there_o may_v be_v hatred_n full_a of_o

calamity_n which_o befall_v their_o enemy_n but_o when_o they_o be_v once_o frame_v and_o fix_v to_o any_o one_o they_o never_o abandon_v he_o neither_o in_o good_a nor_o bad_a fortune_n moreover_o

yet_o it_o do_v not_o quench_v his_o envy_n and_o in_o stead_n of_o suppress_v it_o with_o this_o consideration_n that_o he_o be_v a_o good_a man_n and_o that_o he_o have_v endeavour_v to_o do_v he_o

she_o consist_v in_o the_o aversion_n of_o thing_n which_o be_v contrary_a to_o our_o sense_n it_o may_v spring_v from_o three_o cause_n principal_o that_o be_v to_o say_v from_o choler_n from_o

or_o root_a choler_n not_o that_o time_n do_v change_v one_o of_o these_o passion_n into_o another_o for_o the_o philosopher_n will_v never_o confess_v that_o one_o kind_n may_v pass_v into_o the_o

as_o for_o the_o second_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o nothing_o do_v more_o excite_v our_o hatred_n then_o slander_v &_o reproach_n the_o which_o may_v even_o trouble_v the_o wise_a and_o most_o

retain_v for_o ever_o the_o form_n of_o these_o bloody_a injury_n unless_o they_o make_v some_o great_a and_o solemn_a satisfaction_n final_o the_o reason_n why_o choler_n detraction_n and_o cross_n or_o discommodity_n engender_v hatred_n be_v for_o that_o all_o these_o thing_n tend_v to_o the_o destruction_n of_o the_o be_v or_o honour_n of_o man_n they_o be_v so_o many_o subject_n and_o spur_n

danger_n which_o threaten_v we_o so_o many_o time_n they_o which_o do_v exact_o consider_v the_o hazard_n and_o danger_n which_o threaten_v this_o life_n be_v most_o subject_a to_o fear_n as_o wise_a and_o discreet_a man_n such_o as_o have_v have_v a_o long_a experience_n of_o worldly_a affair_n whereas_o fool_n drunkard_n and_o young_a man_n apprehend_v nothing_o but_o hope_v for_o all_o moreover_o the_o excess_n of_o danger_n increase_v fear_n especial_o when_o it_o be_v near_o unto_o we_o when_o it_o press_v we_o and_o when_o we_o see_v no_o remedy_n nor_o mean_n to_o avoid_v it_o as_o when_o a_o army_n or_o a_o city_n be_v surprise_v and_o neither_o captain_n nor_o soldier_n endeavour_n to_o repulse_v the_o enemy_n yea_o after_o that_o any_o one_o have_v escape_v a_o great_a danger_n the_o very_a imagination_n to_o have_v be_v free_v from_o so_o great_a a_o misfortune_n be_v able_a to_o kill_v he_o for_o that_o the_o imagination_n have_v that_o force_n to_o represent_v unto_o we_o the_o thing_n as_o if_o it_o be_v yet_o present_a and_o as_o if_o we_o be_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o danger_n as_o they_o report_v of_o a_o jew_n who_o have_v by_o night_n past_o a_o bridge_n whereas_o no_o man_n do_v pass_v by_o reason_n of_o the_o danger_n who_o when_o he_o come_v to_o think_v of_o the_o peril_n wherein_o he_o have_v be_v be_v so_o surprise_v with_o fear_n and_o horror_n as_o he_o die_v on_o the_o other_o side_n it_o help_v much_o to_o dissipate_v fear_n to_o imagine_v there_o be_v no_o kind_n of_o danger_n in_o that_o wherewith_o they_o will_v terrify_v us._n the_o which_o may_v proceed_v from_o two_o cause_n that_o be_v to_o say_v either_o from_o a_o exact_a knowledge_n of_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v careful_o observe_v and_o know_v and_o find_v therein_o no_o subject_n of_o fear_n and_o this_o course_n be_v full_a of_o discretion_n or_o else_o from_o mere_a ignorance_n which_o make_v we_o to_o judge_v of_o thing_n otherwise_o then_o we_o ought_v imagine_v that_o there_o be_v no_o danger_n in_o place_n or_o thing_n which_o be_v full_a of_o amazement_n which_o be_v a_o sign_n of_o want_n of_o judgement_n final_o there_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o people_n which_o fear_v nothing_o that_o be_v to_o say_v such_o as_o have_v renounce_v all_o feel_n of_o thing_n whereof_o we_o have_v just_a cause_n to_o apprehend_v the_o loss_n as_o they_o which_o have_v lose_v all_o honour_n abandon_v all_o shame_n waste_v their_o fortune_n and_o their_o good_n and_o those_o who_o life_n be_v tedious_a unto_o they_o for_o what_o can_v they_o fear_v who_o have_v nothing_o remain_v to_o trouble_v they_o for_o this_o reason_n we_o must_v great_o apprehend_v desperate_a person_n and_o such_o as_o have_v abandon_v the_o love_n of_o this_o life_n for_o as_o a_o ancient_n say_v he_o that_o contemn_v his_o own_o life_n be_v master_n of_o another_o man_n yet_o there_o be_v diverse_a thing_n which_o may_v free_v our_o soul_n from_o all_o fear_n whatsoever_o present_v itself_o for_o as_o they_o that_o be_v persuade_v that_o nothing_o can_v hurt_v they_o have_v no_o apprehension_n nor_o fear_n yea_o if_o the_o heaven_n shall_v fall_v they_o will_v not_o be_v amaze_v at_o their_o ruin_n in_o like_a manner_n man_n do_v not_o fear_v to_o lose_v those_o thing_n which_o they_o think_v be_v safe_a from_o the_o outrage_n of_o their_o enemy_n as_o wise_a and_o virtuous_a man_n do_v not_o fear_v that_o the_o rage_n of_o tyrant_n can_v prevail_v over_o their_o mind_n to_o blemish_v their_o constancy_n if_o tyrant_n threaten_v they_o with_o any_o shameful_a death_n they_o be_v ready_a to_o say_v as_o a_o resolute_a spirit_n do_v once_o unto_o a_o prince_n who_o threaten_v to_o hang_v he_o this_o say_v he_o will_v amaze_v the_o gallant_a courtier_n but_o as_o for_o i_o it_o be_v indifference_n whether_o i_o roâ—te_v in_o the_o air_n or_o in_o the_o earth_n three_o man_n fear_v not_o those_o who_o
