or_o to_o lift_v up_o from_o the_o ground_n something_o very_a light_n for_o we_o can_v raise_v great_a weight_n very_o ready_o because_o that_o effort_n require_v a_o great_a stretch_n and_o swell_v of_o the_o muscle_n which_o can_v be_v perform_v by_o the_o spirit_n that_o be_v in_o the_o neighbour_a or_o antagonist_n muscle_n and_o therefore_o some_o time_n be_v require_v to_o call_v in_o

and_o perfect_o or_o that_o nothing_o else_o in_o our_o body_n contribute_v to_o those_o motion_n beside_o what_o have_v be_v mention_v for_o most_o probable_o there_o be_v a_o thousand_o spring_n

to_o be_v examine_v concern_v the_o natural_a motion_n or_o those_o that_o have_v nothing_o extraordinary_a in_o they_o as_o convulsion_n have_v but_o be_v absolute_o necessary_a to_o the_o

myself_o with_o too_o many_o thing_n i_o shall_v only_o insist_v upon_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o heart_n which_o of_o all_o the_o inward_a part_n be_v the_o best_a know_v and_o its_o motion_n the_o most_o sensible_a whilst_o i_o examine_v its_o construction_n i_o observe_v two_o thing_n among_o many_o other_o first_o that_o it_o be_v compose_v of_o fibres_n as_o the_o other_o muscle_n and_o second_o that_o there_o be_v two_o remarkable_a cavity_n in_o it_o and_o therefore_o i_o judge_v that_o its_o motion_n may_v be_v perform_v by_o mean_n of_o the_o animal_n spirit_n since_o it_o be_v a_o muscle_n and_o that_o the_o blood_n ferment_n and_o dilate_v in_o it_o since_o it_o have_v cavity_n the_o first_o of_o these_o judgement_n be_v found_v upon_o what_o i_o have_v say_v before_o the_o second_o upon_o the_o heart_n be_v be_v much_o hot_a than_o any_o other_o part_n of_o the_o body_n and_o that_o it_o diffuse_v heat_n together_o with_o blood_n into_o all_o our_o member_n and_o that_o those_o two_o ventricles_n can_v neither_o be_v form_v nor_o preserve_v but_o by_o the_o dilatation_n of_o the_o blood_n so_o that_o they_o be_v subservient_fw-fr to_o the_o cause_n that_o have_v produce_v they_o i_o can_v then_o give_v a_o sufficient_a reason_n of_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o heart_n by_o the_o spirit_n that_o agitate_v and_o the_o blood_n that_o dilate_v it_o during_o the_o fermentation_n for_o though_o the_o cause_n i_o allege_v of_o its_o motion_n shall_v not_o be_v true_a yet_o i_o plain_o see_v that_o it_o be_v sufficient_a to_o produce_v it_o it_o may_v be_v that_o the_o principle_n of_o fermentation_n or_o dilatation_n of_o liquor_n be_v not_o so_o well_o know_v to_o all_o reader_n as_o that_o i_o may_v pretend_v to_o have_v explain_v a_o effect_n by_o

too_o and_o a_o true_a system_fw-la on_o which_o all_o particular_a effect_n depend_v discover_v provide_v we_o only_o insist_v upon_o clear_a idea_n but_o that_o way_n of_o philosophize_v be_v neither_o the_o exact_a nor_o yet_o the_o short_a to_o comprehend_v this_o it_o must_v be_v observe_v that_o there_o be_v question_n of_o two_o sort_n in_o the_o first_o it_o be_v require_v to_o

by_o these_o sensation_n what_o he_o ought_v to_o do_v for_o the_o preservation_n of_o his_o life_n but_o he_o be_v never_o willing_a to_o be_v perturbate_v by_o they_o in_o spite_n of_o his_o will._n for_o that_o be_v a_o contradiction_n moreover_o when_o he_o desire_v to_o apply_v himself_o to_o the_o contemplation_n of_o truth_n without_o any_o distraction_n of_o thought_n his_o sense_n and_o his_o passion_n keep_v a_o entire_a silence_n order_n will_v it_o shall_v be_v so_o for_o that_o be_v a_o necessary_a sequel_n of_o that_o absolute_a power_n he_o have_v over_o his_o body_n v._n i_o answer_v second_o that_o it_o be_v not_o true_a that_o the_o pleasure_n of_o the_o soul_n be_v the_o same_o thing_n with_o its_o motion_n and_o its_o love_n pleasure_n and_o love_n be_v mode_n of_o the_o soul_n existence_n but_o pleasure_n have_v no_o necessary_a relation_n to_o the_o object_n that_o seem_v to_o cause_v it_o and_o love_n be_v necessary_o relate_v unto_o good_n pleasure_n be_v to_o the_o soul_n what_o figure_n be_v to_o body_n and_o motion_n be_v to_o body_n what_o love_n be_v to_o the_o soul_n but_o the_o motion_n of_o a_o body_n be_v very_o different_a from_o its_o figure_n i_o grant_v that_o the_o soul_n which_o have_v a_o constant_a propensity_n to_o good_a advance_n as_o i_o may_v say_v more_o ready_o towards_o it_o when_o instigate_v by_o a_o sense_n of_o pleasure_n that_o when_o discourage_v by_o her_o suffer_a pain_n as_o a_o body_n when_o drive_v run_v easy_o along_o if_o it_o have_v a_o spherical_a than_o if_o it_o have_v a_o cubical_a figure_n but_o the_o figure_n of_o a_o body_n differ_v from_o its_o motion_n and_o it_o may_v be_v spherical_a and_o yet_o remain_v at_o rest_n it_o be_v true_a in_o this_o case_n it_o go_v not_o with_o spirit_n as_o with_o body_n those_o can_v feel_v a_o pleasure_n but_o they_o must_v be_v in_o motion_n because_o god_n who_o only_o make_v and_o preserve_v they_o for_o himself_o drive_v they_o perpetual_o on_o towards_o good_a but_o that_o do_v not_o prove_v that_o the_o pleasure_n of_o the_o soul_n be_v the_o same_o thing_n as_o its_o motion_n for_o two_o thing_n though_o differ_v from_o each_o other_o may_v yet_o be_v always_o find_v inseparable_o together_o i_o answer_v last_o that_o although_o pleasure_n be_v not_o different_a from_o the_o love_n or_o motion_n of_o the_o soul_n yet_o that_o which_o the_o first_o man_n feel_v in_o the_o use_n of_o the_o good_n of_o the_o body_n do_v not_o incline_v he_o to_o the_o love_a body_n it_o be_v true_a pleasure_n carry_v the_o soul_n

only_o can_v act_v upon_o the_o soul_n and_o in_o any_o manner_n make_v it_o happy_a and_o we_o be_v in_o a_o error_n to_o think_v that_o body_n have_v in_o they_o what_o we_o feel_v occasional_o from_o their_o presence_n adam_n before_o his_o sin_n be_v not_o so_o stupid_a as_o to_o imagine_v that_o body_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o his_o pleasure_n be_v not_o carry_v to_o the_o love_n of_o they_o by_o the_o motion_n that_o accompany_v his_o pleasure_n if_o pleasure_n contribute_v to_o the_o fall_n of_o the_o first_o man_n it_o be_v not_o by_o work_v in_o he_o what_o at_o present_a it_o

the_o figure_n of_o body_n except_o in_o ourselves_o they_o will_v be_v on_o the_o contrary_a unintelligible_a to_o we_o for_o we_o do_v not_o know_v ourselves_o but_o be_v darkness_n to_o ourselves_o and_o we_o must_v cast_v our_o eye_n outward_a if_o we_o will_v behold_v ourselves_o and_o we_o shall_v never_o know_v what_o we_o be_v till_o we_o shall_v contemplate_v ourselves_o in_o he_o who_o

then_o the_o judgement_n the_o soul_n pass_v upon_o these_o three_o sort_n of_o sensation_n sensation_n wherein_o we_o may_v observe_v that_o she_o almost_o ever_o blind_o and_o implicit_o follow_v

whether_o she_o will_v or_o not_o acknowledge_v they_o do_v in_o some_o measure_n belong_v to_o she_o so_o that_o she_o not_o only_a judge_n they_o to_o be_v in_o the_o object_n but_o believe_v they_o also_o to_o be_v in_o the_o member_n of_o her_o body_n which_o she_o consider_v as_o a_o part_n of_o herself_o thus_o she_o judge_v that_o heat_n and_o cold_a be_v not_o only_o in_o the_o fire_n and_o ice_n but_o in_o her_o own_o hand_n also_o as_o to_o the_o languid_a sensation_n they_o so_o little_o concern_v the_o soul_n that_o she_o conclude_v they_o do_v not_o belong_v to_o she_o that_o they_o be_v neither_o in_o herself_o nor_o in_o her_o body_n but_o in_o object_n only_o and_o for_o this_o reason_n it_o be_v we_o divest_v our_o own_o soul_n and_o our_o own_o eye_n of_o light_n and_o

only_o whether_o whiteness_n light_n colour_n sound_n and_o other_o faint_a and_o languish_a sensation_n be_v the_o modification_n of_o our_o soul_n or_o not_o but_o as_o to_o the_o lively_a

they_o by_o their_o idea_n to_o understand_v that_o they_o belong_v to_o we_o as_o for_o the_o middle_a sensation_n the_o soul_n seem_v dubious_a and_o at_o a_o fault_n about_o they_o for_o on_o one_o

especial_o when_o these_o sensation_n come_v up_o near_o to_o those_o which_o i_o have_v name_v the_o strong_a and_o lively_a whereupon_o let_v we_o see_v how_o she_o behave_v herself_o in_o respect_n

we_o conceive_v it_o right_n the_o soul_n can_v think_v more_o at_o one_o time_n than_o another_o whether_o it_o be_v then_o that_o she_o perceive_v many_o object_n or_o be_v take_v up_o with_o one_o

sufficient_o distinguish_v betwixt_o confuse_a and_o distinct_a perception_n more_o thought_n be_v doubtless_o require_v or_o the_o capacity_n of_o think_v must_v be_v more_o fill_v distinct_o to_o

which_o two_o principle_n of_o error_n i_o remember_v to_o have_v be_v often_o seduce_v for_o to_o return_v to_o the_o difficulty_n in_o hand_n it_o be_v not_o possible_a to_o conceive_v how_o those_o
