from_o the_o defect_n of_o light_n so_o death_n be_v the_o privation_n of_o life_n and_o light_n possible_o too_o the_o reason_n why_o the_o cypress_n tree_n be_v esteem_v a_o funeral_n tree_n be_v

have_v cause_v that_o what_o be_v manifest_a to_o the_o one_o be_v hide_v to_o the_o other_o as_o appear_v for_o that_o nothing_o be_v so_o natural_a to_o the_o sense_n of_o see_v as_o light_n and_o

now_o there_o be_v two_o sort_n of_o blackness_n the_o one_o internal_a when_o the_o soul_n turn_v itself_o towards_o the_o image_n upon_o report_n of_o which_o a_o judgement_n be_v make_v if_o that_o

for_o the_o explicate_a of_o which_o i_o must_v crave_v leave_n to_o deflect_v a_o little_a from_o the_o ordinary_a opinion_n touch_v the_o nature_n of_o colour_n i_o affirm_v that_o colour_n and_o light_n be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o thing_n and_o differ_v only_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o subject_a so_o that_o the_o lustre_n of_o a_o simple_a body_n be_v light_a but_o the_o lustre_n of_o a_o

to_o the_o simplicity_n of_o the_o element_n predominant_a in_o they_o be_v all_o luminous_a as_o precious_a stone_n which_o be_v a_o simple_a earth_n and_o without_o mixture_n of_o other_o element_n and_o rot_a wood_n which_o have_v lose_v the_o little_a air_n and_o fire_n it_o have_v its_o humidity_n also_o be_v absume_v by_o the_o putrefaction_n and_o there_o remain_v nothing_o almost_o but_o earth_n you_o see_v how_o it_o keep_v its_o splendour_n amid_o the_o darkness_n of_o the_o night_n and_o this_o in_o my_o conceit_n be_v the_o meaning_n of_o what_o moses_n say_v when_o he_o say_v that_o god_n create_v the_o light_n before_o the_o sun_n for_o god_n have_v create_v the_o element_n in_o their_o natural_a purity_n they_o be_v sometime_o in_o that_o state_n before_o mixture_n the_o earth_n appear_v not_o but_o the_o water_n cover_v its_o whole_a surface_n every_o element_n be_v in_o its_o own_o place_n and_o the_o purity_n of_o its_o nature_n for_o which_o reason_n they_o have_v then_o their_o first_o colour_n which_o be_v splendour_n but_o as_o soon_o as_o god_n have_v mingle_v they_o for_o the_o form_n of_o mixt_n their_o light_n become_v cloud_v and_o change_v into_o colour_n and_o hence_o it_o be_v necessary_a to_o form_v a_o sun_n in_o heaven_n far_o from_o all_o sort_n of_o mixture_n and_o composition_n to_o the_o end_n he_o may_v always_o preserve_v his_o light_n and_o enlighten_v the_o world_n therewith_o the_o fire_n preserve_v itself_o the_o most_o of_o all_o in_o its_o purity_n by_o reason_n of_o its_o great_a activity_n which_o consume_v what_o ever_o approach_v near_o it_o the_o other_o element_n will_v do_v so_o too_o if_o they_o can_v preserve_v themselves_o in_o their_o purity_n as_o well_o as_o the_o fire_n but_o because_o they_o will_v be_v unprofitable_a shall_v they_o remain_v such_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o they_o be_v mingle_v one_o with_o another_o as_o well_o to_o serve_v for_o the_o production_n of_o compound_n as_o for_o their_o aliment_n and_o several_a use_n hence_o their_o light_n become_v change_v into_o colour_n which_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o light_n extinguish_v more_o or_o less_o and_o according_o we_o see_v some_o colour_n more_o luminous_a than_o other_o the_o white_a be_v still_o whole_o luminous_a the_o red_a whole_o resplendent_a the_o green_a less_o and_o the_o brown_a begin_v to_o grow_v dark_a last_o the_o black_a be_v nothing_o but_o light_n whole_o extinct_a and_o a_o kind_n of_o darkness_n and_o consequent_o have_v nothing_o of_o reality_n but_o be_v a_o pure_a privation_n which_o our_o eye_n perceive_v not_o as_o our_o ear_n discern_v or_o perceive_v not_o silence_n but_o only_o by_o not_o hear_v any_o sound_n so_o neither_o do_v the_o sight_n behold_v black_a and_o darkness_n but_o when_o it_o see_v neither_o colour_n nor_o light_n so_o that_o to_o hear_v silence_n and_o see_v darkness_n be_v to_o speak_v proper_o a_o vain_a attempt_n of_o the_o soul_n which_o will_v fain_o exert_v its_o action_n of_o see_v and_o hear_v and_o can_v hence_o arise_v the_o sadness_n and_o terror_n which_o a_o deep_a silence_n and_o the_o sight_n of_o extreme_a blackness_n and_o darkness_n excite_v in_o the_o soul_n for_o the_o soul_n know_v well_o that_o life_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o exercise_n of_o its_o faculty_n of_o which_o as_o soon_o as_o any_o thing_n be_v

arise_v sadness_n and_o fear_n for_o as_o our_o soul_n dread_v nothing_o so_o much_o as_o death_n so_o the_o least_o suspicion_n the_o least_o sign_n and_o umbrage_n of_o death_n be_v apt_a to_o put_v she_o into_o great_a dejection_n and_o this_o make_v way_n for_o the_o second_o reason_n why_o the_o soul_n become_v sad_a at_o the_o sight_n of_o a_o black_a colour_n namely_o because_o it_o never_o appear_v in_o the_o body_n but_o death_n be_v at_o hand_n for_o this_o colour_n be_v produce_v by_o the_o mortification_n and_o extinction_n of_o the_o spirit_n as_o a_o gangrene_n which_o be_v either_o cause_v by_o adustion_n whereby_o coal_n become_v black_a or_o by_o extreme_a coldness_n thus_o old_a man_n be_v of_o a_o leaden_a colour_n tend_v to_o blackness_n now_o the_o excess_n of_o heat_n and_o coldness_n be_v equal_o contrary_a to_o life_n wherefore_o as_o often_o as_o the_o soul_n perceive_v blackness_n either_o in_o she_o own_o body_n or_o in_o another_o she_o remember_v the_o quality_n which_o produce_v it_o and_o be_v contrary_a to_o life_n which_o she_o love_v hence_o arise_v sadness_n and_o hence_o also_o it_o be_v that_o we_o natural_o love_v a_o countenance_n
