Intellect The Will by Plato is defined The Will 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 a Desire with right Reason or 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 a Rational Appetite The Action of the Will is two-fold the one consists in effectu the other cum affectu from which Distinction that Common Distribution of Voluntary Humane Actions into Elicit and Imperate had its Origin the Object of the Will is Good The Object of the Will good and that which terminates and bound● its Appetite finally is the chiefe● Good and last End The Conscience no distinct Faculty The Conscience is a Reflexion of the Understanding upon Man's Actions together with a Sentencing them to be either Good or Evil according to those unquestionable Pinciples already received Dr. Ames or it is the judgment of man concerning himself as it is subjected to the Judgment of God So that properly the Conscience is no distinct Faculty from the Understanding this is that Prov. 22.27 Search that which is made by that Candle of the Lord in the lower parts of the Belly It is called a Judgment that thereby it may be distinguished from a naked Apprehension of the Truth for it always contains in it a firm consent and we do not take Judgment here for an Habitual only but also for an Actual Judgment The Affections not distinct from the Will The Affections also do not properly make a distinct Faculty from the Will the Voluntas in affectu or the ellicit root thereof God being the Object of the Will having many Kinds and Degrees according to the different manner of the Souls consideration of it it excites different Affections in the Will and first of all when any thing good or convenient or at least so apprehended by us to be is represented to us it presently excites in us the Passion or Affection of Love to it Cartes that we prosecute it with a desire that it may either be united to us or remain with us but on the contrary when any evil or noxious thing is exposed to us it immediately stimulates us to Hatred the opposite Affection to Love as it is an Affection of Union with present Good is often joyned Joy and to Hatred Sadness and when there is a full and perfect possession of this desired Good then there is pure Love and solid and sincere Rejoycing but when there is not a perfect Fruition of the thing beloved then Desire is joyned with Love and Sadness is mixed with Rejoycing Likewise with a desire of Absent good there is mixed Hope and Fear according to the probability of a good or evil Event Issue Effect or Consequence of the matter which Hope if it be very great is called Faith and Confidence but when small or no hope is mixed with abundance of fear it degenerates into those spurious Affections of Unbelief and Despair These Affections especially Love and Desire do vary and differ much according to the Opinion we have of the value of the Object for when the intrinsic or inward perfection and pulchritude of the Object is only look'd upon then there is a Love of Complacency and the Object is properly said to please to this is opposed an Aversion from an Object by the consideration of the contrary Imperfection and Deformity but when we consider of this Perfection as convenient for our selves and see it agreeable with our Nature How Love is caused its several kinds this Love of Complacency is turned into a Love of Concupiscence which is another Affection of the Soul and properly another kind of Love Again When the Lover hath a less esteem of the Object than of Himself there thence ariseth a simple Propension which is called Benevolence Thus we love a Flower or Bird c. When we love an Object equally with our selves thence springs Friendship and Charity and such is the Love of Parents to Children and Conjugal Relations one to another but when there is a higher Valuation of the Object than of our Selves as we all ought to have of God our Prince City Countrey Parents and Friends that are ●eminent in Vertue and Merits this kind of Love is called Devotion Among all the Affections and Passions of the Soul Love bears sway Love the chief Affection of the Soul for the several Affections of the Will are but various Forms and Shapes of Love which gives swift Wings and strong Legs to the Soul to pursue what it loves There is no Affection of the Soul but Love hath it at command the Will governs all inferiour Faculties of the Soul but she is governed by Love Plato makes Love to be the great Hero that governs the World so universal is its Empire and Dominions If the Object beloved be absent then Love fixes the Will with ardent desires after it if the Absence be attended with Difficulties or Affronts than Love goes forth by Anger and Fear to conflict therewith and Hope with Courage for the attaining the Object beloved If the Good be present then Love embraceth it with Complacence and Delight if lost then it bewails its loss with Sorrow and according to the Nature and Measure of the Love such will be the Nature and Measure of the other Affections that issue from it But we will say no more of the Affections The Memory The Memory is that Faculty of the Soul whereby it treasures up those things it hath received this is the Magazine of Notions it is the Souls grand Repository wherein it reconds its Riches and draws them forth according to Pleasure CHAP. IX Of the Parts of the Body HAving thus far considered Man in his more Sublime Superior and Coelestial Part we now descend to that Part which is Inferior and more Terrestrial viz. The Body And indeed it is not a Work much less difficult accurately to delineat● the Parts of the Body than to explicate the Nature of the Soul th● the manner of acquiring Knowledge in both these Parts is much different For the one is done by Profound Contemplation the other by Ocular Inspection the one by a Mental Notional Penetrateing into the Bowels of a Spirit the other by a● Actual and Manual Dissection of Bodies As for the Doctrine of the first which is 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Pneumatology we have already handled it We come now to the Somatologio Part which is strictly called Anatomy Anatomy its Subject Anatomy then is a Science which hath the Body of any Animal for its Subject whether Terrestrial Volatile or Aquatile yet among the number of Animals the Body of Man is to be preferred both because of the Pefection of its Parts and because endless would be the Dissection of other Animals they being almost innumerable and likewise because of the incredible Conducement of Anatomizing Humane Bodies both for preserving and restoring the Health of Man But seeing the Bodies of Men defunct are not always at hand it hath been a Custom of Ancient standing even among the Learned to

of the Foetus striving to get out and another of the Vterus it self endeavouring to exclude the Foetus All things being thus arrived to a Mature State and the Matrix being near Delivery doth bear down groweth soft and openeth its Orifice the Waters also as they commonly call them are gathered that is a certain part of the Chorion in which the aforesaid Humour is contained doth usher in the Foetus and slide down from the Matrix into the Vagina or Sheath of the Womb and the Neighbouring Parts also are loosened and ready to distend and the Articulation of the Os Sacrum and the Share-bone to the Hanch-bone which Articulation is by Synchondrosis or a grisly Ligament is so softened and loosened that the aforesaid Bones do easily give way to the parting Infant and by gaping open do amplifie the whole Region of the Hypogastrium or lower Belly and when these things are in this condition it is certain the time of Birth is at hand As for the time when the Birth happens In what Month the Birth commonly happens altho it be regular in almost all other Animals yet in Women it is very enormous for sometimes it happens in the Seventh Month sometimes in the Ninth sometimes in the Tenth or Eleventh seldom in the Eighth if it does the Infant seldom lives the Cause of which Astrologers attribute to the unhappy Influx of Saturn which they say rules on the Eighth Month. The ordinary Computation of going with-Child observeth that time which our Blessed Saviour the Perfectest of all Men did fulfil in the Virgins Womb namely from the Day of Annunciation which is in March to the Blessed day of His Nativity which is celebrated in December and according to this Rule the Sager Matrons keeping their Account while they cast in the wonted day in every Month wherein they were accustomed to have their Purgations they are seldom out of their Reckoning but Ten Revolutions of the Moon being expired they are delivered and reap the fruit of their Womb upon that very day whereon were it not for their Pregnation their Purgations would ensue CHAP. XII Of the Sexes NAture or rather the God of Nature after the large and stately Theatre of this World was erected and perfectly finished began to contemplate what kind of Creatures might be best adapted to Act upon this lower stage and therefore Man being a Creature endued with Reason was chosen to be the Chiefest Actor and that the Comedy might be carried on with more Variety Nature the Disposer of it thought it requisite that the Persons whom she would cause to Act their several distinct and different Parts in various Scenes and several Circumstances might be discriminated one from another not only by the difference of their magnitudes complexions ages or physiognomies but also of their sexes and that they might not only be invested with different Apparel but that their Souls might be Cloathed with Bodies of different composures Thus She hath contrived that the Spectators might be pleased with the Varieties of Men and Women and that the Rules of Oeconomics in visible practice and the Actions of Lovers might be the better represented in their proper Scenes Here may be seen how the Diligent House-wife is busie in her Domestic Affairs while her Careful Husband is sedullous abroad in getting a supply Here also in another Scene we may behold how the Amorous Glances of an Atracting Beauty do Captivate the Affections of the Nobler Sex how a doteing Lover Courts his Mitriss while She at first requites him with nothing but Coyness and Aversness but at last being overcome with the restless and unwearied Expressions of his Love she breaks forth into a career of Love and professeth he hath won her Affections and elevated her Mind into such a passion that it is now impossible for her to restrain from breaking forth into the most ardent Raptures and pathetic Expressions of an undoubted Love now her former pretended Coyness is turned into amorous Embraces and her wonted seeming Aversness to the Caresses of entire Amity and modest Kisses become Badges to discover those flames of pure Love which she couched under the surface of an incensed Breast Strangeness is now turned into Familiarity small Acquaintance into Conjugal Society and former Separation into a close Union of two Minds and a mutual Enioyment one of another The Distinction of Man into two Sexes It being our business to consider Man in all manner of such like circumstances we shall here take occasion to exantlate something concerning the Sexes appropriated to Mankind and they are generally known under the Names of Male and Female The Male his Nature and Difference from the Female The Male on whose Masculine Soul Nature hath conferred a Body in Strength and Vigor almost adequate to it is of a hotter and drier Temperature than the Female for if we can give credence to our common Anatomists Whena Male and when a Female is generated the Seed whereof the Male is generated is of a hotter Nature than that whereof the Female because say they it descends out of the right Side from the Trunc of the Vena Cava while that which affords Matter for Generation of the Female proceeds out of the left Side from a branch of the Emulgent Their Native Heat invigorating their Bodies makes them robust and more fit for Labour and gives them a vehement Pulse and Respiration and causes in them a strong and Man like Voice exhales and dries up the relicts of Humidity which Nature cannot dispose of for Nutrition and leaves nothing at all superfluous and hence the abundance of Vapours which this insulting Heat causeth to be emitted thro the Pores of the Body some of them there at their very Exit thence are condensed by the Extern Ambient Cold and there remain in the Form of Hairs for which is very observable Nature hath given a Hair to every Pore unless those which are constituted in those places where by Attrition Mhey are continually worn off ●or their Generation impeded hence it is that Men are more Hairy than Women even in the whole Superfice of their Bodies these innate colorific Particles do by their agitating Virtue cause the Blood more briskly to ferment and circulate with more velocity they amplifie the Veins and other Vessels and make the whole Structure of the Muscles more compact and solid as for the influence this hath on the Soul or what different Operations it causeth in the Mental Faculties we may only take notice that they of this Sex have a more profound judgment than those of the other tho not so acute a Phansie their Wills are more stable and resolute tho they are so full of Affection The Female The Female the Character of whose generous Sex I know not how to delineate least by attempting it I should too much derogate from their Worth and Excellency is of a colder and moister Constitution yet of a more delicate and finer Contexture
