and_o that_o to_o be_v instruct_v in_o our_o duty_n it_o be_v needless_a to_o consult_v any_o one_o since_o eternal_a wisdom_n be_v our_o master_n who_o speak_v clear_o to_o we_o in_o the_o most_o

much_o more_o useful_a to_o preserve_v it_o than_o the_o reason_n and_o experience_n of_o the_o able_a physician_n there_o be_v no_o need_n of_o consult_v the_o physician_n to_o know_v how_o much_o a_o man_n must_v weigh_v whether_o wood_n and_o stone_n be_v proper_a food_n whether_o he_o may_v throw_v himself_o down_o a_o precipice_n his_o sense_n teach_v he_o after_o a_o most_o short_a and_o

reference_n to_o the_o preservation_n of_o life_n be_v no_o effect_n of_o sin_n but_o the_o first_o institution_n of_o nature_n it_o be_v object_v that_o this_o order_n be_v now_o much_o subvert_v and_o that_o if_o we_o follow_v our_o sense_n we_o shall_v not_o only_o eat_v poison_n but_o frequent_o eat_v more_o than_o we_o can_v digest_v but_o i_o think_v our_o sense_n will_v never_o tempt_v

be_v in_o that_o condition_n that_o god_n produce_v it_o for_o our_o sense_n reach_v only_o to_o the_o natural_a order_n of_o thing_n as_o at_o first_o establish_v by_o god_n i_o grant_v also_o that_o at_o present_a our_o sense_n tempt_v we_o to_o eat_v certain_a meat_n to_o excess_n but_o it_o be_v because_o they_o be_v not_o in_o their_o natural_a state_n we_o shall_v perhaps_o never_o

of_o blood_n as_o be_v see_v in_o a_o animal_n that_o die_v of_o itself_o but_o man_n have_v think_v upon_o kill_a beast_n let_v out_o their_o blood_n boil_v the_o flesh_n season_v and_o disguise_v

to_o prepare_v other_o sort_n of_o diet_n than_o nature_n supply_v indeed_o i_o confess_v it_o necessary_a that_o man_n shall_v make_v use_n of_o the_o same_o reason_n to_o moderate_v their_o eat_v and_o if_o cook_n have_v find_v out_o the_o art_n of_o make_v we_o eat_v old_a shoe_n in_o a_o ragoo_n we_o ought_v to_o use_v our_o reason_n and_o distrust_v these_o adulterate_a meat_n which_o be_v

and_o sense_n be_v mistrustful_a when_o we_o take_v unusual_a food_n for_o if_o a_o man_n have_v never_o eat_v nor_o see_v any_o one_o eat_v of_o a_o certain_a fruit_n which_o he_o have_v meet_v with_o he_o will_v at_o first_o have_v some_o aversion_n and_o sense_n of_o fear_n in_o taste_v it_o his_o imagination_n and_o sense_n will_v natural_o be_v very_o attentive_a to_o the_o relish_n he_o

i_o speak_v not_o here_o of_o those_o supply_n which_o reason_n and_o instruction_n may_v afford_v but_o see_v our_o friend_n take_v bad_a nourishment_n we_o do_v the_o same_o for_o we_o live_v by_o

that_o the_o sensation_n of_o taste_n which_o be_v form_v and_o perfect_v according_a to_o the_o most_o simple_a law_n of_o nature_n shall_v have_v sufficient_a discernment_n for_o all_o sort_n of_o

of_o memory_n and_o spiritual_a habit_n in_o this_o chapter_n for_o several_a reason_n the_o chief_a of_o which_o be_v that_o we_o have_v no_o clear_a idea_n of_o our_o soul_n for_o what_o mean_n have_v we_o clear_o to_o explain_v the_o disposition_n which_o the_o operation_n of_o the_o soul_n leave_v in_o it_o which_o disposition_n be_v its_o habit_n since_o we_o do_v hot_a even_o clear_o

of_o that_o be_v for_o if_o for_o instance_n man_n have_v no_o clear_a idea_n of_o extension_n they_o will_v in_o vain_a endeavour_n to_o discover_v the_o figure_n of_o it_o however_o since_o some_o

it_o i_o suppose_v that_o god_n only_a act_n in_o the_o mind_n and_o represent_v the_o idea_n of_o all_o thing_n to_o it_o and_o that_o when_o the_o mind_n perceive_v any_o object_n by_o a_o very_a

of_o sin_n however_o i_o do_v believe_v and_o think_v myself_o oblige_v to_o believe_v that_o after_o the_o action_n of_o the_o soul_n there_o still_o remain_v some_o alteration_n which_o do_v
