and_o not_o a_o evil_a thing_n these_o be_v the_o only_a thing_n in_o which_o it_o can_v be_v conversant_a but_o it_o can_v be_v a_o habit_n neither_o be_v it_o as_o a_o virtue_n for_o than_o it_o

be_v therefore_o a_o operation_n &_o indeed_o aristotle_n define_v the_o same_o to_o be_v a_o operation_n of_o a_o habit_n that_o be_v agreeable_a unto_o nature_n but_o by_o this_o definition_n felicity_n shall_v be_v pleasure_n see_v felicity_n be_v such_o a_o operation_n as_o he_o define_v and_o so_o his_o definition_n be_v false_a therefore_o aristotle_n thus_o correct_v his_o
