with_o the_o appearance_n of_o evil_a it_o judge_n good_a to_o be_v evil._n in_o the_o same_o manner_n the_o will_v often_o mistake_v its_o end_n because_o in_o aim_v at_o good_a and_o pursue_v after_o it_o it_o happen_v upon_o evil_a and_o in_o fly_v from_o evil_n it_o be_v disappoint_v of_o some_o good_n thus_o also_o the_o understanding_n mistake_v the_o lesser_a good_a for_o the_o

see_v then_o the_o will_n be_v thus_o bind_v to_o follow_v the_o understanding_n or_o its_o judgement_n there_o be_v no_o question_n but_o that_o the_o indifferency_n which_o appear_v in_o the_o will_n proceed_v mere_o and_o absolute_o in_o the_o same_o manner_n as_o the_o indifferency_n of_o the_o understanding_n now_o the_o indifferency_n of_o the_o understanding_n seem_v to_o consist_v in_o this_o that_o it_o be_v not_o so_o much_o tie_v up_o to_o any_o judgement_n that_o it_o have_v make_v of_o a_o thing_n which_o have_v appear_v to_o it_o true_a but_o that_o it_o may_v leave_v

according_a to_o the_o judgement_n it_o make_v may_v sometime_o take_v this_o sometime_o that_o for_o truth_n therefore_o the_o understanding_n may_v be_v look_v upon_o as_o a_o balance_n for_o as_o a_o balance_n be_v indifferent_a to_o incline_v either_o of_o the_o scale_n and_o bend_v towards_o that_o which_o be_v most_o load_a so_o that_o where_o there_o be_v the_o great_a addition_n of_o

look_v upon_o as_o the_o most_o dreadful_a evil_n because_o none_o be_v exempt_v be_v unavoidable_a therefore_o epicurus_n judge_n that_o we_o ought_v to_o accustom_v ourselves_o to_o think_v upon_o

that_o in_o itself_o it_o be_v no_o evil_a at_o all_o and_o thus_o he_o argue_v death_n say_v he_o do_v affect_v we_o and_o by_o consequence_n in_o respect_n of_o we_o be_v not_o to_o be_v judge_v a_o

of_o sense_n it_o be_v not_o grievous_a to_o we_o to_o have_v no_o sense_n so_o likewise_o when_o we_o shall_v have_v lose_v it_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v trouble_v at_o the_o want_n of_o it_o as_o

when_o absent_a insomuch_o that_o some_o be_v strike_v dead_a with_o the_o very_a fear_n of_o die_v we_o may_v very_o well_o acknowledge_v that_o death_n be_v the_o privation_n of_o our_o external_n sense_n or_o of_o sense_n proper_o so_o call_v and_o epicurus_n have_v very_o good_a reason_n to_o say_v that_o in_o death_n there_o be_v nothing_o to_o be_v fear_v that_o may_v injure_v the_o sight_n the_o hear_v the_o smell_n the_o taste_n or_o the_o sense_n of_o feel_v for_o all_o these_o sense_n can_v be_v without_o the_o body_n and_o then_o the_o body_n cease_v to_o be_v or_o be_v dissolve_v but_o that_o which_o we_o be_v not_o to_o allow_v be_v what_o he_o affirm_v elsewhere_o that_o death_n be_v also_o the_o privation_n or_o extinction_n of_o the_o spirit_n or_o understanding_n which_o
