to_o thing_n high_a and_o excellent_a or_o perhaps_o because_o love_n do_v swift_o rooste_v herself_o in_o the_o heart_n of_o lover_n sometime_o by_o a_o bare_a look_n dart_v herself_o in_o as_o it_o

and_o many_o way_n beside_o attempt_v the_o heart_n of_o unhiddy_a young_a man_n of_o who_o she_o make_v a_o large_a prey_n and_o therefore_o love_n be_v say_v to_o have_v many_o branch_n many_o net_n many_o snare_n by_o which_o diverse_a instrument_n she_o diverse_o hunt_v nay_o forage_v and_o pray_v upon_o all_o nature_n take_v some_o by_o delight_n some_o by_o commodity_n some_o by_o honesty_n

because_o we_o may_v thereby_o understand_v how_o swift_a the_o thought_n of_o those_o be_v which_o be_v in_o love_n who_o how_o distante_fw-la soever_o they_o be_v in_o place_n from_o that_o they_o

because_o that_o as_o a_o arrow_n be_v shoot_v pierce_v through_o the_o flesh_n into_o the_o bowel_n so_o love_n first_o by_o beauty_n assail_a the_o bodily_a part_n give_v afterward_o a_o deadly_a

love_v with_o her_o passion_n prick_v and_o gawl_v the_o heart_n of_o he_o that_o love_v and_o yet_o this_o be_v no_o reason_n why_o love_n shall_v therefore_o be_v account_v cruel_a because_o by_o these_o her_o goad_n she_o make_v her_o lover_n valiant_a hardy_a and_o vigilant_a pitiful_a patient_a bold_a and_o constant_a against_o the_o inconstant_a violence_n of_o fortune_n whereas_o without_o these_o passion_n these_o virtue_n will_v die_v and_o languish_v or_o perhaps_o because_o as_o a_o arrow_n be_v but_o part_v from_o the_o bow_n do_v neither_o hurt_n nor_o offend_v until_o it_o hit_v the_o mark_n whereat_o it_o be_v shoot_v and_o then_o it_o wound_v and_o tear_n so_o likewise_o love_n in_o the_o beginning_n manife_v not_o her_o passion_n until_o it_o be_v settle_v in_o the_o heart_n and_o then_o it_o work_v strange_a and_o wonderful_a effect_n or_o perhaps_o because_o by_o carry_v arm_n offensive_a we_o shall_v know_v that_o she_o be_v always_o prepare_v to_o

be_v fit_v that_o love_n shall_v not_o be_v altogether_o unarm_v why_o blind_a problem_n 51._o perhaps_o because_o it_o make_v lover_n blind_a not_o know_v many_o time_n what_o loss_n and_o danger_n and_o mischief_n they_o be_v thereby_o fall_v into_o for_o such_o be_v the_o force_n of_o love_n and_o it_o be_v strange_a that_o for_o the_o thing_n belove_v they_o neglect_v their_o own_o good_a fear_v not_o to_o expose_v their_o body_n to_o the_o edge_n of_o the_o sword_n deny_v unto_o themselves_o whatsoever_o be_v profitable_a to_o themselves_o sleep_v to_o their_o eye_n quietness_n to_o

high_o to_o esteem_v of_o whatsoever_o belong_v to_o that_o they_o love_v insomuch_o that_o they_o can_v endure_v that_o any_o man_n shall_v oppugn_v their_o judgement_n herein_o and_o from_o hence_o proceed_v many_o time_n those_o their_o resolute_a challenge_n and_o valorous_a defence_n or_o perhaps_o because_o love_n for_o the_o most_o part_n respect_v not_o person_n discern_v not_o the_o worth_n and_o merit_n of_o her_o lover_n but_o as_o it_o be_v best_o please_v to_o herself_o not_o respect_v gentility_n or_o nobility_n or_o principality_n or_o beauty_n take_v delight_n to_o solace_n herself_o amongst_o the_o base_a sort_n of_o people_n and_o do_v many_o time_n place_v they_o in_o the_o high_a seat_n and_o therefore_o we_o may_v read_v and_o in_o our_o own_o time_n have_v observe_v that_o great_a and_o mighty_a personage_n have_v love_v woman_n of_o base_a estate_n and_o condition_n and_o contrariwise_o some_o of_o low_a degree_n to_o have_v dare_v to_o make_v love_n to_o the_o great_a and_o mighty_a prince_n of_o the_o world_n or_o perhaps_o to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v know_v and_o understand_v that_o earthly_a love_n be_v blind_a be_v rather_o a_o imperfection_n than_o a_o perfection_n if_o by_o the_o light_n of_o virtue_n it_o be_v not_o enlight_v and_o therefore_o it_o may_v be_v that_o our_o ancestor_n do_v not_o vain_o in_o paint_v love_n blind_a if_o they_o mean_v thereby_o wanton_a and_o vicious_a love_n because_o that_o be_v proper_o say_v to_o be_v blind_a which_o follow_v blind_a sense_n which_o carry_v a_o man_n to_o blind_a desire_n blind_a sin_n and_o the_o palpable_a darkness_n of_o black_a infamy_n why_o ruddy_a or_o high_a colour_a problem_n 52._o perhaps_o because_o a_o lively_a colour_n be_v accompany_v with_o a_o outward_a comely_a grace_n do_v with_o great_a force_n stir_v up_o and_o awaken_v love._n for_o for_o no_o other_o cause_n will_v nature_n that_o in_o every_o thing_n there_o shall_v be_v accidental_a sign_n whereby_o the_o agent_n shall_v be_v move_v to_o work_v those_o effect_n which_o may_v be_v best_o please_v unto_o she_o and_o therefore_o when_o we_o see_v a_o beautiful_a face_n of_o a_o vermilion_n and_o sanguine_a complexion_n adorn_v with_o a_o comely_a grace_n in_o the_o carriage_n thereof_o we_o present_o conclude_v that_o beauty_n worthy_a of_o all_o love._n or_o perhaps_o because_o love_n always_o affect_v ●ife_n which_o the_o sanguine_a red_a best_o express_v as_o contrary_o paleness_n death_n for_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o love_n be_v ordain_v for_o generation_n wherein_o life_n consist_v yea_o the_o life_n of_o those_o that_o give_v life_n unto_o othere_n i_o mean_v the_o begetter_n the_o race_n or_o offspring_n of_o man_n body_n be_v nothing_o else_o then_o a_o certain_a pattern_n of_o the_o life_n of_o their_o father_n who_o for_o love_n even_o out_o of_o the_o bone_n and_o blood_n and_o flesh_n and_o all_o other_o their_o outward_a and_o inward_a power_n beget_v the_o bone_n and_o the_o blood_n and_o the_o flesh_n and_o the_o power_n of_o their_o child_n and_o therefore_o no_o marvel_n if_o love_n be_v describe_v to_o be_v a_o ruddy_a and_o cheerful_a tutor_n and_o preserver_n of_o life_n or_o perhaps_o because_o he_o that_o follow_v love_n make_v always_o show_v of_o a_o cheerful_a heart_n if_o he_o be_v not_o assail_v by_o some_o inward_a passion_n and_o therefore_o we_o common_o see_v love●s_n i_o mean_v such_o as_o prosper_v and_o speed_n in_o their_o love_n full_a of_o spirit_n pleasant_a of_o countenance_n quick_a in_o their_o eye_n eloquent_a of_o tongue_n and_o in_o their_o whole_a carriage_n full_a of_o joy_n and_o comfort_n why_o sometime_o languish_v problem_n 53._o perhaps_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o languish_a faintness_n of_o those_o that_o love_n who_o always_o follow_v with_o a_o over_o earnest_a desire_n that_o which_o they_o love_v in_o so_o much_o as_o every_o day_n of_o absence_n seem_v a_o age_n

the_o less_o seem_v strange_a because_o there_o be_v no_o artificer_n that_o daily_o and_o hourly_o busi_v his_o head_n and_o bend_v all_o his_o endeavour_n to_o ●he_n
by_o his_o people_n and_o therefore_o the_o infamy_n depend_v upon_o many_o tongue_n must_v necessary_o spread_v far_o and_o grow_v great_a so_o that_o they_o can_v safe_o enjoy_v only_o the_o honest_a delight_n which_o all_o man_n beside_o by_o lawful_a matrimony_n may_v be_v possess_v of_o or_o perhaps_o because_o great_a prince_n do_v common_o want_v those_o good_n especial_o of_o the_o

thereof_o be_v by_o the_o flownesse_n of_o the_o power_n of_o the_o other_o sense_n unknown_a and_o by_o the_o awaken_v sense_n of_o touch_v be_v with_o much_o grief_n and_o martyrdom_n apprehend_v nature_n be_v stir_v up_o by_o flight_n and_o all_o possible_a mean_n to_o save_v itself_o or_o perhaps_o because_o that_o which_o the_o concupiscible_a part_n can_v not_o do_v with_o the_o irascible_a that_o be_v what_o desire_n and_o anger_n together_o can_v effect_v may_v be_v supply_v by_o the_o help_n of_o sorrow_n for_o we_o see_v a_o beast_n be_v provoke_v by_o the_o huntsman_n that_o follow_v he_o in_o chase_n fly_v with_o all_o the_o possible_a speed_n he_o can_v make_v but_o if_o by_o chance_n there_o be_v add_v to_o this_o his_o fear_n some_o blow_n or_o wound_n he_o

pain_n and_o grief_n that_o he_o feel_v by_o his_o late_a receive_a hurt_n still_o increase_a his_o strength_n or_o perhaps_o because_o though_o nature_n especial_o intend_v delight_n in_o every_o creature_n yet_o by_o accident_n it_o intend_v sorrow_n too_o that_o be_v to_o give_v notice_n to_o every_o creature_n by_o such_o sensible_a grief_n and_o torment_n their_o approach_a ruin_n and_o decay_n and_o that_o therefore_o it_o be_v necessary_a they_o give_v what_o aid_n and_o assistance_n they_o can_v to_o the_o part_n offend_v or_o perhaps_o because_o the_o excellency_n of_o everye_o thing_n be_v better_a know_v by_o the_o opposition_n of_o his_o contrary_n and_o therefore_o light_n will_v be_v nothing_o so_o precious_a if_o there_o be_v not_o darkness_n nor_o the_o spring_n so_o pleasant_a if_o there_o be_v not_o winter_n nor_o laughter_n so_o grateful_a and_o acceptable_a if_o it_o be_v not_o mingle_v with_o some_o tear_n and_o therefore_o beside_o delight_n which_o be_v so_o sweet_a and_o lovely_a to_o nature_n she_o have_v likewise_o add_v grief_n and_o sorrow_n to_o make_v delight_n more_o amiable_a or_o perhaps_o to_o the_o end_n that_o man_n shall_v be_v far_o the_o more_o ready_a and_o willing_a to_o aspire_v to_o the_o true_a felicity_n of_o that_o other_o life_n where_o only_o there_o be_v delight_n without_o sorrow_n and_o joy_n without_o fear_n of_o
