be_v no_o necessity_n impose_v upon_o assent_n they_o argue_v thus_o if_o all_o thing_n be_v do_v by_o fate_n all_o thing_n be_v do_v by_o a_o antecedent_n cause_n and_o if_o appetite_n than_o likewise_o those_o thing_n which_o follow_v appetite_n therefore_o assent_v also_o but_o if_o the_o cause_n of_o appetite_n be_v not_o in_o we_o neither_o be_v the_o appetite_n itself_o in_o our_o power_n and_o if_o so_o neither_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v effect_v by_o appetite_n be_v in_o our_o power_n and_o consequent_o neither_o assent_n nor_o action_n be_v in_o our_o power_n whence_o
