lesson_n xxiii_o of_o the_o communicate_v affection_n to_o other_o 1._o far_o it_o appear_v that_o since_o all_o sensation_n whether_o of_o those_o thing_n which_o affect_v the_o body_n from_o without_o or_o those_o we_o be_v sensible_a of_o because_o one_o part_n of_o the_o body_n affect_v another_o be_v produce_v in_o a_o certain_a site_n to_o the_o organ_n of_o sensation_n that_o be_v in_o a_o right_n or_o the_o natural_a line_n of_o motion_n from_o the_o entry_n of_o the_o nerve_n to_o the_o place_n of_o sensation_n it_o follow_v that_o when_o we_o think_v of_o the_o same_o thing_n they_o must_v be_v in_o the_o very_a same_o site_n and_o posture_n whence_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o in_o dream_n and_o in_o distraction_n of_o mind_n we_o seem_v to_o see_v the_o very_a thing_n themselves_o before_o we_o 2._o it_o be_v apparent_a therefore_o they_o be_v in_o a_o fit_a situation_n for_o this_o viz._n to_o be_v press_v by_o the_o motion_n make_v by_o the_o heart_n into_o the_o same_o nerve_n whence_o it_o follow_v that_o by_o the_o think_n on_o any_o object_n the_o nerve_n be_v just_a so_o move_v as_o when_o the_o sense_n convey_v it_o and_o consequent_o the_o same_o action_n be_v apt_a to_o follow_v 3._o and_o thus_o we_o see_v laugh_v and_o gape_v etc._n etc._n proceed_v from_o see_v other_o do_v so_o as_o love_n and_o hatred_n from_o hear-say_n 4._o hence_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o blearey'dnesse_n and_o other_o distorsion_n of_o the_o member_n be_v often_o derive_v from_o behold_v other_o that_o contagious_a disease_n too_o for_o which_o some_o disposition_n in_o the_o body_n prepare_v the_o way_n be_v attract_v and_o as_o it_o be_v suck_v in_o by_o fear_n and_o that_o other_o disease_n which_o the_o retraction_n of_o a_o humour_n to_o some_o certain_a part_n produce_v be_v introduce_v by_o mere_a sight_n or_o imagination_n only_o 5._o again_o because_o the_o member_n of_o the_o body_n be_v connect_v and_o the_o exterior_a depend_v upon_o the_o interior_a these_o operation_n can_v be_v produce_v but_o that_o byconnection_n the_o exterior_a member_n must_v some_o way_n be_v change_v and_o thus_o we_o see_v all_o the_o passion_n show_v themselves_o in_o the_o countenance_n and_o action_n of_o animal_n upon_o which_o depend_v the_o principle_n of_o physiognomy_n 6._o again_o because_o usual_a motion_n render_v the_o organ_n apt_a for_o such_o motion_n it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o in_o generation_n the_o like_a disposition_n be_v oft_o transfer_v to_o the_o issue_n and_o the_o offspring_n become_v like_o the_o parent_n both_o in_o its_o natural_a operation_n and_o those_o which_o depend_v upon_o sensation_n nay_o even_o in_o some_o trivial_a thing_n too_o as_o in_o wart_n in_o hookednesse_n of_o nose_n and_o the_o like_a 7._o moreover_o since_o the_o issue_n in_o the_o womb_n derive_v its_o nourishment_n from_o the_o mother_n it_o be_v no_o wonder_n if_o the_o desire_n of_o the_o mother_n at_o that_o time_n pass_v into_o the_o issue_n as_o if_o they_o long_v for_o wine_n or_o whatever_o other_o food_n or_o pleasure_n that_o the_o issue_n shall_v suck_v in_o such_o a_o disposition_n as_o to_o be_v obnoxious_a to_o the_o same_o thing_n all_o their_o life_n 8._o again_o since_o such_o long_n fix_v a_o vehement_a resemblance_n of_o the_o thing_n in_o the_o fancy_n and_o terror_n too_o or_o any_o violent_a passion_n do_v the_o same_o and_o that_o image_n be_v make_v by_o motion_n it_o be_v no_o wonder_n that_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o mother_n tremble_v with_o the_o same_o motion_n even_o as_o far_o as_o to_o the_o issue_n itself_o and_o that_o as_o light_v with_o its_o stroke_n paint_v in_o a_o glass_n the_o reflect_a image_n of_o a_o body_n so_o this_o image_n shall_v in_o the_o little_a tender_a body_n of_o a_o infant_n and_o wherever_o it_o find_v matter_n apt_a to_o preserve_v it_o leave_v a_o image_n fix_v in_o the_o flesh_n as_o it_o be_v a_o mark_n of_o that_o desire_n 9_o and_o because_o too_o the_o infant_n be_v never_o more_o tender_a than_o at_o the_o first_o commixtion_n of_o the_o father_n and_o mother_n seed_n and_o woman_n in_o the_o conjugal_a act_n especial_o some_o be_v very_o passive_a it_o be_v no_o wonder_n if_o a_o violent_a apprehension_n of_o they_o in_o that_o conjuncture_n often_o change_v the_o complexion_n of_o the_o issue_n the_o female_a seed_n receive_v a_o kind_n of_o proper_a stamp_n from_o the_o image_n which_o possess_v the_o mother_n fancy_n lesson_n xxiv_o of_o the_o seeming-rationall_a action_n of_o animal_n 1._o it_o be_v plain_a again_o that_o animal_n must_v of_o necessity_n operate_v seeming-reasonable_o or_o like_o reason_n for_o since_o the_o work_n of_o nature_n be_v the_o work_n of_o that_o reason_n which_o frame_v nature_n the_o effect_n of_o nature_n must_v needs_o be_v the_o work_n of_o the_o same_o reason_n and_o resemble_v the_o manner_n of_o reason_n work_v 2._o again_o some_o of_o their_o operation_n must_v needs_o exceed_v those_o which_o reason_n work_v in_o we_o for_o since_o they_o spring_v from_o a_o reason_n which_o transcend_v we_o it_o be_v but_o consequential_a that_o they_o shall_v transcend_v the_o effect_n of_o our_o reason_n as_o appear_v in_o generation_n which_o we_o understand_v not_o how_o it_o be_v do_v even_o when_o we_o do_v it_o as_o neither_o can_v a_o man_n tell_v the_o hour_n of_o the_o day_n as_o a_o clock_n do_v which_o yet_o be_v itself_o but_o a_o work_n of_o our_o reason_n 3._o it_o appear_v too_o whence_o proceed_v the_o antipathy_n and_o sympathy_n of_o animal_n viz._n partly_o out_o of_o the_o natural_a disposition_n of_o contrary_a quality_n 10._o as_o in_o plant_n partly_o out_o of_o a_o apprehension_n of_o evil_n join_v with_o

against_o that_o motion_n of_o the_o body_n downward_o or_o according_a to_o the_o centre_n of_o its_o gravity_n it_o be_v plain_a such_o a_o body_n will_v not_o sink_v lesson_n xviii_o of_o the_o five_o sense_n of_o animal_n 1._o out_o of_o what_o have_v be_v say_v it_o appear_v that_o there_o be_v certain_a channel_n spread_v through_o the_o whole_a body_n of_o a_o animal_n full_a of_o a_o kind_n of_o airy_a humour_n and_o that_o they_o be_v long_o and_o narrow_a whence_o the_o least_o impression_n make_v in_o any_o extremity_n of_o the_o body_n must_v needs_o in_o a_o moment_n run_v to_o their_o fountain_n the_o brain_n and_o thence_o descend_v to_o the_o heart_n these_o channel_n therefore_o be_v any_o way_n obstruct_v the_o animal_n be_v sensible_a of_o nothing_o without_o 2._o and_o since_o body_n that_o make_v impression_n either_o do_v it_o by_o their_o immediate_a self_n or_o else_o by_o the_o mediation_n of_o some_o other_o body_n and_o those_o that_o act_n by_o their_o immediate_a self_n either_o do_v it_o in_o their_o proper_a bulk_n or_o break_v into_o part_n or_o by_o natural_a emission_n and_o those_o body_n by_o the_o mediation_n whereof_o universal_o one_o body_n act_n upon_o another_o be_v either_o air_n or_o fire_n or_o light_v which_o we_o see_v every_o body_n bandy_v against_o another_o it_o follow_v that_o a_o animal_n if_o it_o be_v perfect_a may_v be_v affect_v these_o five_o way_n by_o the_o thing_n about_o it_o 3._o and_o because_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o these_o five_o way_n be_v distinct_a the_o animal_n too_o itself_o will_v have_v five_o distinct_a disposition_n by_o which_o it_o will_v be_v apt_a to_o receive_v these_o five_o impression_n to_o choose_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v congruous_a and_o refuse_v those_o that_o be_v noxious_a both_o in_o its_o food_n and_o other_o thing_n belong_v to_o its_o conservation_n 4._o again_o because_o these_o impression_n be_v different_a it_o be_v fit_a the_o organ_n that_o be_v to_o receive_v they_o be_v place_v in_o several_a part_n of_o the_o animal_n animal_n therefore_o have_v five_o sense_n 5._o it_o be_v apparent_a too_o that_o the_o sense_n be_v nothing_o but_o certain_a different_a degree_n of_o touch_v for_o the_o part_n of_o the_o same_o body_n must_v needs_o make_v only_o a_o more_o subtle_a stroke_n of_o the_o same_o nature_n with_o the_o stroke_n of_o the_o whole_a 6._o and_o hence_o we_o distinguish_v the_o difference_n of_o taste_n so_o as_o that_o one_o prick_n another_o cutt_n another_o brush_n another_o smooth_n the_o difference_n of_o smell_v too_o be_v akin_a to_o taste_n 7._o but_o the_o difference_n of_o sound_n be_v the_o same_o with_o those_o of_o motion_n distinguish_v by_o swiftness_n and_o slowness_n by_o bigness_n and_o smallness_n last_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o fire_n or_o light_n make_v stroke_n too_o by_o its_o activity_n upon_o other_o body_n 8._o it_o appear_v far_o of_o what_o nature_n the_o sense_n must_v be_v and_o where_o situate_v for_o the_o touch_n be_v to_o receive_v the_o excess_n of_o those_o quality_n whereof_o the_o body_n of_o the_o animal_n consist_v require_v nothing_o but_o a_o middling_a

taste_n because_o it_o require_v a_o moistness_n which_o may_v dissolve_v the_o minute_a part_n need_v a_o abundance_n of_o moisture_n and_o a_o site_n where_o the_o food_n may_v be_v dissect_v the_o smell_n by_o which_o air_n chief_o enter_v into_o the_o body_n require_v a_o site_n and_o organ_n where_o the_o vapour_n may_v stick_v that_o be_v constipate_v together_o they_o may_v act_v the_o more_o powerful_o 10._o the_o hear_v and_o sight_n require_v a_o situation_n near_o the_o brain_n in_o a_o eminent_a place_n where_o motion_n and_o light_n may_v come_v to_o they_o more_o pure_a and_o organ_n which_o may_v multiply_v light_n by_o refraction_n and_o motion_n by_o reflection_n 11._o nor_o be_v it_o less_o evident_a that_o the_o sensation_n be_v perfect_v in_o that_o part_n of_o the_o organ_n where_o chief_o reside_v that_o virtue_n for_o which_o the_o sense_n be_v make_v that_o be_v to_o transfer_v to_o the_o brain_n the_o action_n of_o a_o body_n without_o if_o the_o black_a of_o

that_o the_o fire_n will_v carry_v away_o some_o of_o they_o with_o it_o whence_o the_o compound_v will_v become_v more_o compact_v and_o solid_a 2._o again_o because_o the_o part_n of_o fire_n be_v

you_o will_v see_v all_o the_o sally_n block_v up_o and_o the_o pore_n coagulate_v by_o virtue_n of_o the_o cold_a so_o that_o the_o air_n or_o fire_n can_v easy_o steal_v out_o 5._o see_v again_o the_o water_n with_o all_o its_o weight_n and_o force_n press_v the_o near_a part_n of_o the_o compound_v on_o every_o side_n whence_o they_o be_v force_v to_o compress_v and_o straighten_v

far_o as_o the_o water_n can_v pierce_v which_o so_o much_o the_o far_o it_o can_v as_o its_o part_n be_v render_v more_o subtle_a by_o the_o re-active_a power_n of_o the_o air_n and_o fire_n 6._o
