man_n that_o he_o know_v at_o what_o to_o laugh●_n and_o a_o valiant_a man_n that_o he_o dare_v laugh_v for_o he_o that_o laugh_v be_v just_o repute_v more_o wise_a then_o at_o who_o it_o be_v laugh_v and_o hence_o i_o think_v proceed_v that_o which_o in_o these_o late_a formal_a time_n i_o have_v much_o note_v that_o now_o when_o our_o superstitious_a civility_n of_o manner_n be_v become_v a_o mutual_a tickle_a flattery_n of_o one_o another_o almost_o every_o man_n affect_v a_o humour_n of_o jest_v and_o be_v content_a to_o be_v de●ect_n and_o to_o deform_v himself_o yea_o become_v fool_n to_o no_o other_o end_n that_o i_o can_v spy_v but_o to_o give_v his_o wise_a companion_n occasion_n to_o laugh_v and_o to_o show_v themselves_o in_o promptness_n of_o laugh_v be_v so_o great_a in_o wiseman_n that_o i_o think_v all_o wiseman_n if_o any_o wiseman_n do_v read_v this_o paradox_n will_v laugh_v both_o at_o it_o and_o i_o xi_o that_o the_o gift_n of_o the_o body_n be_v better_o than_o those_o of_o the_o mind_n i_o say_v again_o that_o the_o body_n make_v the_o mind_n not_o that_o it_o create_v it_o a_o mind_n but_o form_n it_o a_o good_a or_o a_o bad_a mind_n and_o this_o mind_n may_v be_v confound_v with_o soul_n without_o any_o violence_n or_o injustice_n to_o reason_n or_o philosophy_n then_o the_o soul_n it_o seem_v be_v enable_v by_o our_o body_n not_o this_o by_o it_o my_o body_n license_v my_o soul_n to_o see_v the_o world_n beauty_n through_o my_o eye_n to_o hear_v pleasant_a thing_n through_o my_o ear_n and_o afford_v it_o apt_a organ_n for_o the_o conveyance_n of_o all_o perceivable_a delight_n but_o alas_o my_o soul_n can_v make_v any_o part_n that_o be_v not_o of_o itself_o dispose_v to_o see_v or_o hear_v though_o without_o doubt_n she_o be_v as_o able_a and_o as_o willing_a to_o see_v behind_o as_o before_o now_o if_o my_o soul_n will_v say_v that_o she_o enable_v any_o part_n to_o taste_v these_o pleasure_n but_o be_v herself_o only_o delight_v with_o those_o rich_a sweetness_n which_o her_o in●ard_a eye_n and_o sense_n apprehend_v she_o shall_v dissemble_v for_o i_o see_v she_o often_o solace_v with_o beauty_n which_o she_o see_v through_o my_o eye_n and_o with_o music_n which_o through_o my_o ear_n she_o hear_v this_o perfection_n than_o my_o body_n have_v that_o it_o can_v impart_v to_o my_o mind_n all_o his_o pleasure_n and_o my_o

sphere_n whereof_o she_o boast_v the_o contemplation_n be_v chastity_n temperance_n and_o fortitude_n gift_n of_o the_o mind_n i_o appeal_v to_o physician_n whether_o the_o cause_n of_o these_o be_v not_o in_o the_o body_n health_n be_v the_o gift_n of_o the_o body_n and_o patience_n in_o sickness_n the_o gift_n of_o the_o mind_n then_o who_o will_v say_v that_o patience_n be_v as_o good_a a_o happiness_n as_o health_n when_o we_o must_v be_v extreme_o miserable_a to_o purchase_v this_o happiness_n and_o for_o nourish_v of_o civil_a society_n and_o mutual_a love_n among_o man_n which_o be_v our_o chief_a end_n while_o we_o be_v man_n i_o say_v this_o beauty_n presence_n and_o proportion_n of_o the_o body_n have_v a_o more_o masculine_a force_n in_o beget_v this_o love_n than_o the_o virtue_n of_o the_o mind_n for_o it_o strike_v we_o sudden_o and_o possess_v we_o immoderate_o when_o to_o know_v those_o virtue_n require_v some_o judgement_n in_o he_o which_o shall_v discern_v a_o

these_o virtue_n be_v not_o counterfeit_v for_o it_o be_v the_o same_o to_o be_v and_o seem_v virtuous_a because_o that_o he_o that_o have_v no_o virtue_n can_v dissemble_v none_o but_o he_o which_o have_v a_o little_a may_v gild_v and_o enamel_n yea_o and_o transform_v much_o vice_n into_o virtue_n for_o allow_v a_o man_n to_o be_v discreet_a and_o flexible_a to_o complaint_n which_o be_v great_a virtuous_a gift_n of_o the_o mind_n this_o discretion_n will_v be_v to_o he_o the_o soul_n &_o elixir_n of_o all_o virtue_n so_o that_o touch_v with_o this_o even_o pride_n shall_v be_v make_v
