they_o from_o their_o infancy_n from_o thence_o we_o may_v just_o expect_v something_o very_o rare_a and_o exquisite_a to_o be_v produce_v we_o need_v not_o trouble_v ourselves_o whether_o all_o

because_o of_o our_o little_a skill_n and_o invention_n for_o people_n may_v do_v many_o thing_n that_o will_v cause_v astonishment_n if_o they_o have_v industry_n enough_o to_o discover_v the_o way_n of_o do_v it_o and_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o there_o be_v such_o way_n though_o they_o be_v not_o always_o find_v out_o while_o people_n be_v young_a they_o can_v judge_v right_o of_o any_o thing_n and_o if_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o either_o by_o experience_n reflection_n or_o the_o meeting_n with_o some_o intelligent_a person_n they_o come_v to_o be_v of_o another_o mind_n they_o despise_v that_o which_o they_o once_o so_o much_o admire_v and_o many_o time_n they_o laugh_v at_o themselves_o when_o they_o examine_v themselves_o without_o flattery_n but_o if_o any_o one_o know_v the_o just_a value_n of_o every_o thing_n aright_o do_v you_o not_o think_v that_o he_o
they_o be_v capable_a of_o profit_v by_o they_o that_o will_v at_o the_o least_o dispose_v they_o to_o complete_a themselves_o as_o soon_o as_o i_o begin_v to_o speak_v say_v the_o mareshal_n you_o

you_o tell_v it_o i_o be_o continual_o think_v of_o my_o child_n who_o can_v as_o yet_o be_v without_o i_o and_o i_o love_v they_o the_o better_a for_o it_o and_o though_o wealth_n be_v something_o

believe_v that_o either_o to_o do_v a_o thing_n well_o that_o one_o do_v ill_a or_o to_o do_v it_o better_o if_o one_o do_v it_o well_o that_o study_n can_v ever_o hinder_v that_o be_v to_o say_v to_o seek_v out_o the_o mean_n and_o that_o under_o the_o best_a master_n for_o so_o it_o be_v that_o one_o ought_v to_o study_v it_o be_v see_v by_o all_o sort_n of_o exercise_n how_o much_o art_n and_o good_a master_n be_v necessary_a and_o it_o be_v very_o strange_a that_o the_o body_n shall_v be_v capable_a of_o instruction_n and_o that_o the_o mind_n shall_v not_o be_v so_o to_o for_o what_o likelihood_n be_v there_o that_o if_o practice_n and_o good_a master_n be_v without_o peradventure_o effectual_a for_o the_o make_v people_n skilful_a in_o ride_v the_o great_a horse_n that_o to_o the_o make_n of_o a_o accomplish_a person_n they_o shall_v both_o of_o they_o be_v altogether_o needless_a and_o hurtful_a the_o body_n and_o the_o mind_n be_v seldom_o as_o one_o can_v wish_v but_o the_o defect_n of_o the_o body_n seem_v to_o i_o more_o difficult_a to_o be_v correct_v the_o mind_n be_v natural_o supple_n and_o it_o may_v be_v redress_v provide_v a_o right_a course_n be_v take_v and_o who_o can_v doubt_v that_o if_o there_o be_v any_o one_o as_o exact_v in_o breed_v youth_n as_o it_o be_v say_v pignatel_n be_v good_a at_o horsemanship_n but_o that_o he_o may_v make_v a_o

learn_v to_o do_v a_o thing_n of_o a_o ill_a master_n one_o learn_v to_o do_v it_o ill_o and_o it_o be_v much_o more_o difficult_a to_o choose_v good_a master_n for_o the_o frame_n of_o the_o mind_n than_o for_o the_o body_n for_o the_o advantage_n of_o the_o body_n be_v much_o more_o remarkable_a and_o more_o know_v than_o those_o of_o the_o mind_n and_o beside_o many_o people_n who_o be_v
