custom_n be_v ancient_a and_o that_o this_o disorder_n have_v be_v begin_v before_o our_o age_n it_o be_v no_o news_n that_o fortune_n shall_v be_v spare_v of_o her_o favour_n where_o nature_n have_v be_v prodigal_a of_o she_o but_o this_o import_v not_o much_o nor_o do_v it_o lessen_v my_o despite_n the_o example_n i_o have_v read_v in_o story_n affect_v i_o not_o so_o much_o as_o that_o of_o

fate_n ordinary_a to_o person_n most_o deserve_a it_o cease_v not_o to_o be_v irk_v some_o to_o we_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o my_o distemper_n and_o i_o think_v there_o be_v none_o that_o have_v a_o thought_n contrary_a to_o i_o if_o he_o know_v the_o merit_n as_o well_o as_o the_o misfortune_n of_o fair_a belinde_a you_o know_v the_o affection_n which_o i_o bear_v she_o and_o i_o wish_v some_o mean_n to_o testify_v unto_o you_o that_o which_o i_o have_v to_o remain_v madam_n your_o most_o obedient_a etc._n etc._n the_o three_o answer_n she_o show_v that_o this_o marriage_n will_v be_v more_o happy_a than_o be_v think_v and_o send_v she_o a_o parallel_n to_o the_o news_n she_o have_v receive_v madam_n i_o find_v the_o choice_n of_o lydian_a as_o worthy_a of_o praise_n as_o you_o depaint_v it_o full_a of_o blame_n you_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v so_o spiteful_a to_o he_o nor_o envious_a to_o she_o he_o love_v to_o desire_v belinde_a shall_v be_v happy_a it_o be_v not_o needful_a bumante_n be_v not_o so_o you_o may_v wish_v good_a to_o the_o one_o without_o harm_n to_o the_o other_o by_o your_o discourse_n it_o shall_v seem_v fortune_n have_v not_o wherewith_o to_o please_v both_o and_o that_o she_o can_v give_v nothing_o to_o the_o old_a which_o she_o take_v not_o from_o the_o young_a you_o will_v change_v your_o opinion_n if_o you_o consider_v what_o be_v

shall_v have_v of_o all_o sort_n he_o have_v for_o she_o riches_n and_o beauty_n she_o have_v for_o he_o wisdom_n and_o age_n he_o look_v upon_o that_o in_o she_o which_o least_o perish_v in_o all_o other_o i_o mean_v the_o quality_n of_o the_o soul_n rather_o than_o those_o of_o the_o face_n it_o often_o happen_v that_o time_n efface_v the_o fair_a feature_n efface_v from_o our_o soul_n affection_n breed_v by_o beauty_n it_o be_v there_o that_o he_o be_v exempt_v from_o inconstancy_n and_o shall_v never_o be_v subject_a to_o repent_v but_o in_o what_o humour_n do_v you_o write_v this_o letter_n you_o say_v that_o numante_n be_v imperfect_a without_o touch_v the_o good_a she_o enjoy_v have_v she_o not_o prudence_n and_o virtue_n and_o without_o these_o two_o quality_n what_o will_v all_o the_o rest_n avail_v we_o i_o shall_v like_v a_o angel_n better_o under_o a_o visage_n something_o deform_v than_o a_o devil_n with_o all_o the_o beauty_n of_o the_o world_n her_o

then_o begin_v see_v the_o advantage_n he_o shall_v get_v and_o then_o judge_v if_o you_o have_v reason_n to_o find_v fault_n with_o the_o wife_n or_o blame_v the_o husband_n but_o i_o must_v return_v you_o like_v for_o like_a in_o matter_n of_o news_n and_o make_v you_o see_v by_o these_o that_o we_o also_o be_v in_o a_o country_n of_o monster_n we_o have_v a_o woman_n in_o our_o county_n who_o all_o the_o world_n esteem_v lovely_a and_o which_o nevertheless_o be_v far_o go_v in_o affection_n to_o a_o certain_a man_n without_o any_o cause_n imaginable_a more_o than_o lydian_a can_v pretend_v

this_o word_n can_v never_o clear_v themselves_o they_o know_v no_o more_o the_o law_n of_o philosophy_n than_o those_o of_o civility_n the_o word_n love_n express_v respect_n better_a than_o that_o of_o fear_n and_o i_o know_v not_o why_o man_n take_v it_o ill_o since_o god_n himself_o be_v content_v with_o it_o when_o he_o say_v that_o we_o shall_v adore_v he_o he_o say_v also_o that_o we_o shall_v love_v he_o i_o say_v more_o he_o content_v not_o himself_o to_o permit_v but_o he_o command_v it_o it_o be_v strange_a to_o see_v how_o far_o the_o vanity_n of_o man_n extend_v which_o be_v

the_o quick_a as_o to_o make_v my_o opinion_n pass_v forridiculous_a suffer_v i_o in_o a_o few_o word_n to_o make_v it_o appear_v reasonable_a it_o seem_v to_o
to_o reverse_v a_o establish_a custom_n and_o that_o it_o be_v oft_o hard_o to_o turn_v the_o course_n then_o that_o of_o a_o river_n i_o confess_v it_o difficult_a but_o you_o shall_v grant_v i_o that_o it_o be_v more_o noble_a to_o undertake_v it_o and_o more_o glorious_a to_o go_v through_o with_o it_o if_o none_o have_v be_v so_o hardy_a to_o change_v untoward_a fashion_n we_o shall_v yet_o

chief_o let_v we_o not_o take_v it_o ill_o that_o some_o endeavour_v it_o let_v we_o march_v cheerful_o in_o the_o way_n that_o other_o have_v plain_v for_o we_o if_o we_o have_v not_o courage_n

to_o see_v many_o like_a puppet_n habiliate_v themselves_o as_o if_o they_o go_v to_o make_v a_o show_n upon_o the_o theatre_n this_o be_v enough_o to_o put_v preacher_n in_o choler_n and_o

it_o and_o if_o they_o have_v some_o good_a quality_n they_o look_v for_o competent_a judge_n who_o esteem_n be_v worth_a merit_v say_v what_o they_o will_v when_o our_o company_n be_v neither_o fit_a to_o discourse_v nor_o able_a to_o apprehend_v we_o must_v have_v recourse_n to_o fancy_n see_v there_o be_v no_o satisfaction_n to_o be_v expect_v in_o speech_n or_o attention_n all_o that_o remain_v to_o speak_v of_o be_v their_o apish_a look_n which_o i_o will_v not_o defend_v if_o they_o be_v extravagant_a i_o will_v only_o say_v that_o if_o this_o be_v bad_a in_o they_o we_o must_v not_o therefore_o cease_v to_o praise_v that_o which_o be_v good_a we_o do_v not_o leave_v the_o use_n of_o moonlight_n for_o any_o spot_n we_o find_v in_o her_o body_n nor_o do_v we_o fear_v to_o gather_v

the_o xi_o letter_n she_o rejoice_v that_o she_o be_v reconcile_v with_o she_o and_o confess_v free_o the_o torment_n she_o endure_v during_o their_o coldness_n madam_n i_o be_o angry_a that_o you_o
