of_o dislike_n which_o for_o instance_n proceed_v from_o the_o strong_a imagination_n they_o have_v of_o the_o dirt_n in_o what_o they_o eat_v the_o reason_n of_o it_o be_v that_o when_o two_o

that_o if_o we_o imagine_v it_o be_v not_o agreeable_a it_o be_v because_o it_o be_v join_v and_o confound_v with_o another_o that_o cause_v more_o distaste_n than_o the_o other_o do_v of_o

of_o their_o pleasure_n or_o dislike_v reason_n which_o always_o show_v that_o the_o other_o sensation_n be_v not_o the_o same_o in_o different_a person_n tell_v we_o also_o that_o there_o will_v be_v

that_o all_o man_n see_v not_o the_o same_o colour_n in_o the_o same_o object_n yet_o i_o believe_v it_o never_o or_o very_o rare_o happen_v that_o person_n see_v white_a or_o black_a to_o be_v of_o

all_o sort_n of_o person_n and_o if_o these_o sensation_n be_v the_o same_o they_o will_v be_v equal_o agreeable_a to_o all_o man_n but_o because_o very_o weighty_a doubt_n may_v be_v raise_v against_o the_o answer_n i_o have_v give_v to_o the_o precedent_a objection_n i_o do_v not_o believe_v it_o solid_a enough_o to_o insist_v upon_o it_o indeed_o it_o be_v very_o seldom_o that_o we_o

that_o the_o idea_n we_o have_v of_o body_n and_o of_o all_o other_o object_n which_o we_o perceive_v not_o by_o themselves_o proceed_v from_o these_o body_n or_o these_o object_n or_o else_o that_o

that_o be_v because_o they_o shall_v be_v happy_a those_o that_o suffer_v persecution_n for_o justice_n be_v thereby_o just_a virtuous_a and_o perfect_a because_o they_o be_v in_o the_o order_n that_o

in_o some_o measure_n since_o it_o be_v the_o taste_n and_o possession_n of_o good_a and_o of_o pleasure_n which_o make_v we_o happy_a therefore_o it_o be_v unreasonable_a to_o tell_v man_n that_o

a_o thousand_o against_o it_o therefore_o sensible_a object_n be_v neither_o good_a nor_o lovely_a be_v they_o necessary_a towards_o the_o preservation_n of_o life_n we_o ought_v to_o use_v they_o but_o as_o they_o be_v not_o capable_a of_o act_v in_o we_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o love_v they_o the_o soul_n must_v only_o love_v he_o that_o be_v good_a who_o only_o be_v capable_a to_o make_v it_o
