THE GOLDEN MEANE WHO IS CONTENT WITHALL Wants no spacious Pallace nor envied Hall By written Idea's you may conserve all Characters single Letters naked Numbers calculations of Nativities Cosmographical Descriptions and Proofs as also all Words Phrases and Sentences not to be aptly expressed otherwise Now having dispatched all written Ideas and such as are single we will proceed to the compound CHAP. XI Of Compound Idea's THis kind is compounded of single Idea's representing either a naked word or sentence A compound Idea signifying a single word consisteth of a Fictitious and written Idea As for example If you were to remember Edline a friends Name imagine Ed written on the opposite Wall on the right hand and a line extended thence all along to the left aside So Lambert may be retained by a Lamb placed in one of the Repositories and e rt written on the opposite Wall on the left hand Many words may be conveniently reposited by Idea's compounded of fictitious and written Idea's A compound Idea representing an intire sentence is twofold consisting either of a Direct and Written Idea or of a Relative and Written Idea the nature of both will appear perspicuous by examples Example of an Idea compounded of a Direct and written Idea In the third Book of Ovid's Elegies the Fable of Jupiter and Danaes is thus morally applyed Jupiter admonitus nihil esse potentius auro Corruptae pretium Virginis ipse fuit Dum merces aberat durus pater ipsa severa Aerati postes ferrea turris erat Sed postquam sapiens in munere venit adulter Prebuit ipsa sinus dare jussa dedit Jove having heard Gold was of greatest power Would for a Maiden-head himself have sold Without a Bribe Father and Maid look't sowre Brass gates and Iron Walls did him withhold Till in a shower of Gold wise Jove descending The Daughter lov'd the Father did befriend him To remember this Moral imagine the story of Jupiter and Danaes drawn to the life in the upper part of a large frame hanging against the opposite Wall and these Verses of Ovid writ according to the usual manner in the lower part which is vacant Another Example The seven Electoral Princes first instituted Otho third Emperor of that Name and Pope Gregory the fift are included by Manlius in these Verses Moguntinensis Trevirensis Colonensis Atque Palatinus Dapifer Dux portitur ensis Marchio Prepositus camere Pincerna Bohemus The Prelates of Mentz Trevers and Colen The Palsgrave Carver a Of Brandenburg Marquiss Chamberlain The b Of Austria Duke Sword-bearer Cup-bearer the c Of Bohemia King Suppose an Emperor sitting on a throne in one of the Repositories seven Princes standing about him and these Verses writ on a table hanging against the opposite Wall Another Example An Epigram of Sir Hugh a vain-glorious Knight taken out of Nicholas Borbon Sepelapis motus non fit muscosus ut aiunt At barbam é bello retulit Hugo domum Moss as they say grows on no rowling stone Yet Sir Hugh from the Wars brought a Beard home Imagine an armed Knight of a fierce Martial aspect with a long Beard walking in a memorial place bearing a white Shield on his left arm wherein this Epigram is inscribed Another An Epitaph upon the Empress Matilda Daughter of Henry the First King of England Wife of Henry the Fourth Emperor and Mother of Henry the second King of England Magna ortu majorque viro sed maxima prole Hic jacet Henrici filia sponsa parens By Birth Great Wedlock greater greatest in Progeny Here lies the Daughter Spouse and Mother of Henry Fancy this Epitaph graven on the hither side of an Alablaster tomb standing in a memorial place All Histories Acts Fables Apologies Morals described in Verse or other Writing also Epigrams Epitaphs Anagrams and Mottoes may be retained in Memory by an Idea compounded of a Direct and Written Example of an Idea compounded of a Relalative and Written Theodore Beza writeth thus under the Emblem of a man spitting towards Heaven Cernis ut hic foedo coelum qui conspuit ore Non coelum imo suos conspuit ore sinus Et tu coelorum Dominum contemptor in illum Non quot verba jacis tot tibi probra vomis This Drivil who doth spit at Heaven high Not Heaven but his bosom doth defile So contemners of Divine Majesty Do hurt themselves not God by speeches vile In the upper part of a table hanging against the opposite Wall imagine the picture of a man with his hands on his sides his legs stradling and his head bended backward towards Heaven spitting thereat this Tetrastichon written underneath according to the usual manner in Emblems Another The same Theodore Beza hath another Embleme of a Circumference equally distant on every side from its Center with these Verses Cernis ut haec medium cingat teres undique punctum Linea hinc spacio distet inde pari Scilicet illa refert quod nos tegit undique coelum Tellurem hoc punctum quod tenet ima notat Cur igitur doleas quorsum dic quaeso labores Tu patria pepulit quem pietatis amor Coelum si versus tendis quocunque recedes Hinc spacio coelum cernis inde pari See how this Circumference doth inclose

CHAP. V Of remembring long Speeches NOw lastly I will treat of Speeches A speech according to my acceptation is any large Treatise composed of many sentences of one kind such are Sermons Orations Declarations Heads or Sections of Books or finally any long Treatise or memorable Speeches are either such as are framed by our selves or by others Again Speeches of other men are either extant in Books or are delivered by word of mouth If the Speeches to be remembred are already extant in print it is sufficient to set down their Titles in your Common-place-Book under their proper Heads to advertise you in what Chapter or part of a Book this or that Argument is more largely handled As for example In the first Book of Calvin's Institutions and thirteenth Chapter the three persons of the Godhead in one Essence is proved by divers reasons to transcribe which Treatise though in Epitome would be very laborious Therefore it is better under the title of Trinity among other common observations pertaining to the same purpose to write down these words That three Persons are contained in one onely Essence of God Cal. Institut Lib. 1. Cap. 13. By which Citation you are directed to that place of Calvin whensoever you please If the Speech you desire to preserve be verbally pronounced you must take it in short-hand if you have skill otherwise in long hand with as much celerity as you can If you be at any time left behind through nimble volubility of the Speakers tongue it will be sufficient to write onely the essential words of every Sentence as for the most part are Substantives and Verbs leaving vacant spaces in which either words of less weight may be interposed which must be supplyed immediately after the Speech is ended Four things must be observed that speeches contrived by our selves may be deeply fastened in memory Method Writing Marginal Notation and Meditation the Method ought to be so disposed that every part of an entire Speech and every sentence of those parts precede according to their dignity in nature that is that every thing be so placed that it may give light to understand what followeth Such a method is very effectual to ease the memory both of Speaker and Hearer for in a speech methodically digested each sentence attracteth the next like as one link draweth another in a Golden Chain therefore Method is called the Chain of Memory For this cause let every former sentence so depend on the latter that it may seem necessarily related thereunto In writing a Speech let your first care be that your Lines extend not too far but that space enough be left in the Margent In the next place that your whole speech be distinguished into heads for a distinct mind apprehendeth better then one confused After you have compiled a Speech you are shortly to deliver do not transcribe it though it be both blotted and interlined lest you lose as much time in new Writing as would suffice to learn it Besides the blots and interlining do more firmly fasten in mind the sentences so blotted and interlined then if they were otherwise This is also to be noted that although it be necessary to write over the intire Speech or at least brief notes thereof before it be publikely pronounced yet ought that Transcription by no means to be seen publikely unless Memory languish and be weak For the mind doth better recollect it self in the absence of Notes and by united force is better prepared to speak Marginal Notation is when one or two chief words of every sentence is placed in the Margent which so soon as seen which is with the least cast of an eye revoketh the whole sentence to mind As if this ensuing small Treatise of the Resurrection were to be learned by heart I distinguish the sentences thereof by words placed in the Margent by which means they are speedily remembred That there shall be a Resurrection of the dead at the last day is confirmed by these reasons Because it is imperfect First that which is imperfect is uncapable of perfect felicity in its kind but the soul separate from the body is imperfect and therefore not capable of perfect felicity Thence followeth a necessity of the Bodies Resurrection that by the conjunction thereof with the Soul the Elect may enjoy perfect felicity How are they happy Tertullian saith Tertullian if they shall perish in part Seals of Salvation Secondly If the Body by Christs command ought to be as well partaker of the seals of salvation as the Soul then it shall as well participate of Eternal Salvation but the Body according to Christs institution ought to partake of the seals of salvation For the Body is washed with water of Baptism and nourished by Bread and Wine in the Lords Supper Ergo c. As Seeds Thirdly Like as Seeds cast into the Earth dye and revive again so humane bodies buried in the ground dissolved and corrupted shall rise again at the last day by the quickening virtue of Christ Paul brandeth him with folly 1 Cor. 13.35 who cannot conclude the resurrection of the dead out of the vivification of Seeds buried in the ground 1 Cor. 13.35 whence Augustine Augustine He which vivisieth dead and putrified Seeds by which men live in this world more facilely will raise you up to live eternally Revolution of things Fourthly The Revolution of all things is an argument of the Resurrection as Day followeth night Waking Sleep Rest Labor and Winter Summer so Life followeth death and Resurrection Sepulture That which Tertullian speaketh in his Book Of the Resurrection of the flesh Tertullian is pertinent hereto Day saith he dyeth into night yet is enlivened again with glorie all over the world Fiftly It is evidently proved by the Resurrection of Christ seeing Christ which is our head is already risen it is a testimony that we also who are his members shall live after death Where the head is thither will the members be gathered Christ our head 1 Cor. 15.20 in this respect Christ is termed the first fruits of the dead 1 Cor. 15.20 Resurrection of others Sixthly The particular Resurrection of some to a temporal life in this world was a sign of the general Resurrection to eternal life to be at the end of the world These were raised again after death 1.
