that_o it_o be_v a_o shame_n for_o they_o to_o end_v a_o combat_n which_o they_o have_v make_v so_o unequal_a it_o be_v true_a that_o they_o forbear_v not_o often_o to_o pursue_v the_o most_o

of_o woman_n of_o child_n and_o of_o man_n who_o be_v natural_o timorous_a they_o fear_v all_o before_o they_o be_v possess_v with_o this_o passion_n but_o when_o this_o have_v get_v mastery_n shame_n

without_o that_o power_n so_o that_o if_o a_o bold_a man_n do_v very_o much_o slight_a enemy_n and_o danger_n we_o may_v at_o least_o say_v that_o he_o meet_v not_o with_o so_o many_o subject_n of_o

but_o also_o as_o we_o have_v already_o show_v in_o our_o discourse_n of_o love_n that_o this_o complacency_n be_v no_o true_a pleasure_n and_o that_o the_o daemon_n which_o be_v capable_a of_o that_o acceptableness_n can_v be_v touch_v with_o joy_n which_o yet_o they_o ought_v most_o perfect_o to_o have_v if_o it_o come_v from_o knowledge_n alone_o we_o must_v then_o stick_v to_o the_o common_a opinion_n and_o with_o it_o say_v that_o pleasure_n be_v a_o motion_n of_o the_o appetite_n since_o its_o good_a which_o move_v that_o part_n of_o the_o mind_n and_o that_o pleasure_n have_v no_o other_o object_n but_o the_o same_o good_a yet_o this_o raise_v another_o difficulty_n for_o if_o it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o soul_n cease_v to_o move_v when_o it_o arrive_v at_o the_o end_n whereto_o it_o tend_v move_v to_o possess_v a_o good_a the_o possession_n ought_v to_o be_v the_o end_n and_o term_v of_o its_o motion_n so_o that_o the_o pleasure_n which_o come_v always_o after_o the_o possession_n be_v rather_o a_o rest_n then_o a_o motion_n of_o the_o appetite_n and_o yet_o if_o we_o be_v agree_v that_o possession_n be_v the_o aim_n and_o end_n of_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o mind_n we_o will_v say_v that_o that_o only_o ought_v to_o be_v understand_v of_o those_o which_o it_o employ_v to_o arrive_v thereunto_o for_o although_o it_o bear_v itself_o not_o towards_o the_o good_a it_o possess_v it_o hinder_v it_o not_o from_o agitate_v to_o taste_v it_o again_o and_o from_o be_v ravish_v in_o the_o enjoyment_n it_o have_v have_v but_o to_o speak_v more_o exact_o possession_n be_v not_o the_o last_o end_n which_o the_o soul_n propose_v it_o be_v the_o enjoyment_n which_o be_v the_o perfection_n and_o accomplishment_n of_o the_o possession_n for_o it_o be_v certain_a we_o possess_v thing_n which_o we_o enjoy_v not_o and_o we_o may_v say_v that_o the_o good_a render_v itself_o master_n of_o the_o soul_n when_o it_o present_v and_o unite_v itself_o unto_o it_o but_o that_o she_o become_v mistress_n of_o it_o when_o she_o enjoy_v it_o after_o all_o this_o we_o can_v never_o say_v that_o rest_n be_v the_o end_n which_o the_o soul_n propose_v to_o itself_o since_o the_o end_n be_v the_o perfection_n of_o thing_n and_o that_o there_o be_v some_o which_o must_v be_v always_o in_o action_n to_o be_v perfect_a now_o the_o soul_n be_v of_o this_o kind_n she_o never_o tend_v to_o rest_v unless_o out_o of_o weakness_n and_o it_o be_v therefore_o necessary_a that_o joy_n and_o enjoyment_n be_v in_o motion_n let_v we_o then_o see_v what_o a_o one_o it_o be_v to_o discover_v it_o we_o must_v observe_v that_o pleasure_n and_o joy_n be_v never_o form_v in_o the_o soul_n till_o after_o the_o good_a have_v inspire_v love_n therein_o for_o as_o the_o first_o motion_n of_o the_o appetite_n towards_o good_a be_v to_o unite_v itself_o thereunto_o and_o love_n consist_v in_o this_o union_n it_o be_v impossible_a that_o any_o man_n shall_v fancy_v any_o other_o motion_n which_o can_v be_v posterior_n to_o that_o and_o therefore_o if_o pleasure_n be_v a_o motion_n of_o the_o soul_n towards_o good_a it_o ought_v to_o presuppose_v love_n &_o always_o come_v after_o it_o now_o as_o this_o love_n always_o precede_v it_o follow_v not_o that_o it_o must_v always_o accompany_v it_o there_o may_v be_v obstacle_n which_o may_v hinder_v the_o appetite_n from_o move_v to_o form_v this_o passion_n and_o grief_n perhaps_o may_v be_v so_o great_a that_o it_o may_v employ_v the_o whole_a soul_n that_o it_o will_v not_o admit_v the_o least_o ray_n of_o joy_n but_o it_o be_v also_o certain_a that_o if_o there_o be_v nothing_o which_o retain_v the_o appetite_n it_o always_o go_v from_o love_n to_o pleasure_n because_o the_o soul_n unite_v itself_o to_o good_a but_o to_o enjoy_v it_o and_o it_o be_v impossible_a it_o shall_v enjoy_v it_o but_o by_o pleasure_n and_o to_o speak_v truth_n enjoyment_n be_v nothing_o but_o pleasure_n which_o we_o find_v in_o the_o possession_n of_o good_a and_o according_a as_o enjoyment_n be_v more_o perfect_a it_o be_v also_o the_o great_a and_o the_o more_o excellent_a what_o motion_n can_v the_o appetite_n then_o suffer_v in_o pleasure_n and_o enjoyment_n beyond_o that_o of_o love_n whereby_o it_o unite_v itself_o to_o what_o be_v good_a certain_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n very_o difficult_a to_o conceive_v how_o these_o action_n shall_v pass_v into_o a_o power_n which_o be_v quite_o blind_a and_o hide_v in_o the_o bottom_n of_o the_o soul_n they_o must_v be_v extreme_o obscure_a and_o what_o light_n soever_o the_o mind_n can_v bring_v they_o suffer_v themselves_o to_o be_v see_v not_o without_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o trouble_n yet_o since_o we_o have_v engage_v ourselves_o to_o show_v the_o difference_n of_o the_o passion_n by_o the_o difference_n of_o corporal_a motion_n we_o must_v necessary_o to_o know_v what_o joy_n be_v find_v in_o sensible_a thing_n a_o kind_n of_o motion_n which_o may_v resemble_v the_o agitation_n which_o the_o mind_n suffer_v in_o this_o encounter_n as_o it_o happen_v then_o in_o the_o passion_n of_o love_n that_o the_o appetite_n carry_v itself_o towards_o the_o belove_a object_n that_o it_o run_v thither_o and_o unite_v itself_o thereunto_o we_o may_v say_v that_o this_o motion_n be_v like_a to_o that_o of_o fluid_a body_n which_o run_v towards_o their_o centre_n and_o think_v to_o find_v their_o rest_n there_o but_o because_o when_o they_o be_v there_o they_o for_o all_o that_o stop_v not_o they_o return_v and_o scatter_v themselves_o on_o themselves_o they_o swell_v and_o consequent_o overflow_n so_o after_o that_o the_o appetite_n be_v unite_v to_o its_o good_a its_o motion_n end_v not_o there_o it_o return_v the_o same_o way_n scatter_v itself_o on_o itself_o and_o overflows_a those_o power_n which_o be_v near_a to_o it_o by_o this_o effusion_n the_o soul_n double_v on_o the_o image_n of_o the_o good_a it_o

and_o thick_n by_o this_o reflux_n it_o can_v contain_v itself_o within_o its_o bound_n and_o be_v constrain_v to_o distil_v itself_o into_o that_o faculty_n which_o acquaint_v it_o with_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o object_n share_v with_o it_o the_o good_a it_o have_v receive_v and_o by_o that_o mean_n make_v all_o the_o part_n of_o the_o soul_n concur_v to_o the_o possession_n thereof_o wherein_o perfect_a enjoyment_n consist_v for_o since_o the_o soul_n have_v no_o other_o end_n but_o perfect_o to_o possess_v the_o good_a and_o that_o perfect_o to_o possess_v it_o it_o must_v have_v the_o knowledge_n of_o that_o possession_n the_o appetite_n have_v no_o knowledge_n can_v alone_o make_v it_o enjoy_v what_o it_o love_v the_o imagination_n and_o the_o understanding_n must_v

as_o the_o platonic_a philosophy_n teach_v after_o all_o if_o it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o soul_n and_o the_o spirit_n work_v in_o the_o same_o manner_n in_o the_o passion_n we_o may_v not_o doubt_v
