and_o deceit_n of_o the_o mind_n for_o she_o that_o fear_v not_o to_o falsify_v these_o exterior_a part_n may_v with_o more_o ease_n and_o less_o fear_n adulterate_a the_o inward_a beauty_n of_o the_o

apprehend_v their_o object_n and_o especial_o the_o sense_n of_o see_v which_o be_v so_o powerful_a in_o love_n by_o present_v the_o beautyfull_a feature_n and_o liniament_n to_o the_o common_a

in_o the_o beauty_n of_o the_o mind_n which_o beside_o that_o it_o require_v a_o long_a time_n to_o manifest_v itself_o because_o it_o lie_v hide_v under_o the_o bodily_a veil_n do_v not_o imprint_v her_o image_n with_o those_o lively_a colour_n in_o the_o outward_a sense_n as_o the_o bodily_a beauty_n do_v or_o perhaps_o because_o the_o beauty_n of_o the_o mind_n be_v invisible_a and_o therefore_o do_v slow_o move_v the_o power_n &_o that_o only_o by_o the_o mean_n of_o that_o which_o be_v corporal_o visible_a whereas_o the_o visible_a beauty_n be_v by_o itself_o make_v manifest_v or_o perhaps_o because_o mortal_a man_n be_v overload_v with_o the_o bodily_a spoil_n do_v more_o quiet_o incline_v himself_o to_o corporal_a thing_n then_o to_o spiritual_a or_o perhaps_o because_o that_o which_o do_v most_o often_o wound_v the_o sense_n and_o come_v near_a unto_o nature_n work_v likewise_o a_o more_o speedy_a effect_n in_o love_n as_o in_o the_o other_o sense_n why_o do_v wise_a man_n more_o esteem_v the_o beauty_n of_o the_o mind_n then_o of_o the_o body_n problem_n 20._o perhaps_o because_o the_o colour_n which_o do_v form_v the_o invisible_a beauty_n be_v of_o high_a prize_n than_o those_o of_o the_o bodily_a for_o the_o beauty_n of_o the_o mind_n arise_v from_o the_o rich_a colour_n of_o all_o the_o moral_a virtue_n as_o from_o temperancy_n shamefastness_n chastity_n modesty_n clemency_n sufferance_n fortitude_n wisdom_n and_o the_o like_a and_o be_v also_o make_v more_o glorious_a by_o other_o colour_n more_o noble_a as_o the_o liberal_a science_n the_o sweetness_n of_o utterance_n the_o knowledge_n of_o high_a mystery_n the_o use_n of_o study_n the_o happy_a remembrance_n of_o time_n past_a and_o the_o studious_a search_n of_o divine_a thing_n whereas_o the_o corporal_a beauty_n be_v restrain_v to_o a_o few_o colour_n of_o small_a prize_n which_o do_v speedy_o vanish_v and_o decay_v or_o perhaps_o because_o the_o beauty_n of_o the_o mind_n be_v of_o a_o more_o high_a and_o sublime_a order_n because_o in_o some_o resemblance_n it_o come_v near_o unto_o the_o angelical_a spirit_n who_o as_o by_o nature_n they_o excel_v all_o inferior_a thing_n so_o do_v they_o likewise_o in_o ●heir_a quality_n upon_o which_o their_o beau●y_n depend_v or_o perhaps_o because_o corporal_a beauty_n be_v the_o simple_a gift_n of_o nature_n which_o as_o it_o be_v more_o common_a so_o less_o esteem_v but_o the_o beauty_n of_o the_o mind_n not_o by_o simple_a nature_n but_o by_o art_n and_o study_v and_o industry_n and_o watch_n be_v hardly_o after_o a_o long_a time_n discover_v and_o therefore_o of_o better_a esteem_n because_o more_o rare_a and_o with_o more_o difficulty_n attain_a why_o do_v young_a man_n prefer_v the_o beauty_n of_o the_o body_n before_o that_o of_o the_o mind_n problem_n 21._o perhaps_o because_o be_v provoke_v thereunto_o by_o nature_n as_o be_v more_o apt_a to_o generation_n then_o old_a man_n they_o follow_v their_o like_a for_o beauty_n be_v proper_a unto_o youth_n and_o not_o other_o thing_n can_v satisfy_v they_o than_o the_o present_a visible_a and_o sensible_a object_n but_o old_a man_n who_o contemplate_v the_o invisible_a beauty_n of_o the_o mind_n which_o by_o reason_n of_o their_o great_a experience_n be_v common_o find_v in_o they_o themselves_o grow_v as_o it_o be_v to_o nature_n invisible_a by_o contemplate_v this_o spiritual_a beauty_n enamour_v themselves_o therewith_o or_o perhaps_o because_o young_a man_n be_v strong_o move_v by_o bodily_a delight_n as_o be_v great_a well-willer_n to_o the_o pleasure_n of_o the_o sense_n but_o old_a man_n have_v often_o time_n quench_v their_o thirst_n at_o the_o like_a fountain_n with_o the_o great_a hurt_n and_o impeachment_n both_o of_o their_o person_n and_o honour_n do_v no_o more_o esteem_v those_o float_a vanity_n and_o therefore_o rest_v themselves_o content_a with_o the_o bare_a remembrance_n of_o those_o time_n they_o do_v willing_o embrace_v that_o beauty_n which_o depend_v upon_o the_o many_o and_o dear_a experience_n of_o thing_n past_a or_o perhaps_o because_o young_a man_n in_o every_o thing_n show_v themselves_o too_o credulous_a whereby_o they_o turn_v their_o thought_n to_o every_o appear_a beauty_n that_o present_v itself_o unto_o the_o eye_n neither_o care_v for_o or_o dream_v of_o any_o

account_n of_o it_o as_o know_v it_o by_o ●xperince_n to_o be_v more_o rare_a and_o hardly_o attain_v why_o be_v the_o beauty_n of_o the_o mind_n more_o often_o see_v in_o old_a man_n then_o in_o

with_o ●heir_o youthful_a care_n and_o affection_n attend_v more_o to_o the_o pleasure_n of_o the_o sense_n than_o the_o delight_n of_o the_o mind_n do_v little_a or_o not_o at_o all_o endeavour_n by_o labour_n and_o industry_n to_o attain_v to_o those_o virtue_n and_o knowledge_n which_o be_v necessary_o require_v to_o so_o precious_a a_o talon_n to_o the_o obtain_v whereof_o man_n of_o ripe_a

which_o shine_v and_o show_v itself_o in_o the_o gravity_n of_o their_o speech_n or_o perhaps_o because_o old_a man_n want_v the_o flower_n of_o all_o bodily_a beauty_n which_o reign_v only_o in_o young_a year_n they_o desire_v at_o the_o least_o to_o be_v in_o some_o account_n and_o reputation_n in_o the_o world_n by_o their_o internal_a beauty_n which_o always_o accompany_v their_o nature_n both_o in_o their_o private_a and_o public_a government_n or_o perhaps_o because_o multitude_n of_o year_n bring_v with_o they_o sage_a and_o grave_a counsel_n to_o have_v hear_v much_o inrich_v
