immensity_n of_o man_n will_n may_v chap_v and_o change_v these_o motive_n of_o love_n in_o diverse_a manner_n for_o if_o we_o relieve_v often_o poor_a man_n misery_n for_o vainglory_n we_o pervert_v the_o virtue_n of_o mercy_n if_o some_o fast_n for_o hypocrisy_n they_o abuse_v the_o virtue_n of_o temperance_n if_o some_o pray_v with_o pride_n and_o contempt_n as_o the_o arrogant_a pharisee_n

among_o the_o object_n of_o delight_n yet_o it_o may_v be_v affect_v for_o honesty_n and_o so_o i_o say_v of_o almost_o all_o the_o rest_n but_o here_o i_o consider_v the_o first_o aspect_n and_o connaturall_a show_n that_o all_o these_o object_n carry_v with_o they_o and_o how_o they_o first_o enter_v into_o a_o man_n affection_n and_o be_v apt_a to_o move_v and_o in_o this_o sense_n i_o doubt_v not_o but_o their_o seat_n be_v right_a and_o in_o consideration_n thereof_o i_o have_v reduce_v they_o to_o these_o head_n the_o three_o corollary_n it_o may_v easy_o be_v perceyve_v in_o every_o one_o of_o these_o motive_n how_o much_o more_o be_v insinuate_v then_o be_v set_v down_o and_o a_o good_a scholar_n with_o a_o flight_n meditation_n may_v by_o discourse_n apply_v these_o

find_v out_o apt_a to_o induce_v the_o persuasion_n of_o the_o same_o passion_n and_o so_o i_o say_v of_o the_o rest_n much_o more_o i_o can_v have_v add_v to_o every_o one_o but_o then_o the_o treatise_n will_v have_v grow_v too_o great_a wherefore_o i_o judge_v it_o sufficient_a to_o touch_v the_o top_n of_o general_a persuasion_n to_o stir_v up_o love_n intend_v thereby_o by_o to_o represent_v occasion_n to_o wise_a man_n of_o
proportion_n that_o a_o man_n be_v sick_a it_o be_v enough_o that_o one_o humour_n only_o exceed_v that_o a_o harmony_n of_o music_n be_v good_a all_o part_n must_v keep_v tune_n time_n and_o apt_a concordance_n that_o it_o be_v bad_a one_o jar_a voice_n will_v disconsort_n all_o in_o like_a manner_n that_o a_o man_n be_v honest_a and_o good_a be_v require_v that_o he_o be_v endue_v with_o all_o virtue_n to_o be_v nought_o or_o ba●●e_o it_o be_v sufficient_a he_o be_v a_o drunkard_n a_o thief_n a_o whoremaster_n a_o usurer_n or_o infect_v with_o any_o one_o vice_n etc._n etc._n wherefore_o honest_a love_n suppose_v a_o man_n to_o be_v virtuous_a absolute_o thereupon_o ground_v most_o effect_n of_o kindness_n and_o therefore_o the_o contrariety_n thereof_o will_v not_o so_o apt_o move_v hatred_n as_o some_o other_o particular_a consideration_n for_o example_n we_o determine_v that_o toleration_n of_o wrong_n move_v a_o man_n to_o love_v the_o contrary_a of_o this_o will_v hardly_o stir_v up_o hatred_n for_o if_o we_o grant_v that_o he_o we_o hate_v refuse_v to_o suffer_v any_o wrong_n for_o we_o but_o avoid_v they_o with_o main_n &_o might_n we_o may_v well_o conclude_v he_o do_v not_o great_o love_v we_o but_o violent_o we_o shall_v infer_v therefore_o that_o he_o deserve_v hatred_n and_o so_o i_o say_v of_o some_o other_o therefore_o for_o more_o perspicuity_n and_o that_o we_o may_v find_v out_o more_o urgent_a argument_n to_o induce_v man_n to_o hatred_n the_o case_n be_v to_o be_v sift_v a_o little_a more_o narrow_o in_o hatred_n of_o enmity_n we_o detest_v the_o person_n as_o stain_v with_o evil_a sin_n vice_n or_o wickedness_n for_o which_o we_o wish_v he_o just_o punish_v wherefore_o all_o these_o reason_n which_o induce_v we_o to_o conceive_v the_o greatness_n of_o his_o offence_n or_o the_o indignity_n of_o the_o person_n or_o ill_a demeanour_n of_o his_o life_n towards_o god_n in_o himself_o or_o his_o neighbour_n all_o these_o abundant_o will_v excite_v hatred_n against_o he_o sometime_o occasion_n will_v be_v offer_v to_o move_v the_o passion_n of_o hatred_n against_o some_o particular_a person_n as_o to_o inveigh_v against_o a_o
