An Eye that's strong and rightly dispos'd, is indifferent to all Colours, therefore if it calls for Greens, 'tis a sign 'tis weak and out of order : Thus when the Hearing and Smelling are in a good condition, they don't pick and chuse their Objects, but take in all manner of Scents and Sounds, thus a Strong Stomach dispatches all that comes into it , like a Mill that Grinds all sort of Grain. And thus a Mind that's Sound , and Healthy is prepared to Digest all sorts of Accidents ; And therefore when 'tis clamorous in such wishes as these, O that my Children may Live and Flourish, that I may be every Bodies Favourite, and he commended for every thing I doe : When the Mind I say is thus sickly and untoward, 'tis just like an Eye that's all for Green Colours , and like a set of Teeth that would touch nothing by their Good will, but Flummery, and Pudding.
