7.30

Rub out the Colours of Imagination ; 7 Don't suffer your Passions to make a Machine of you. Confine your Care to the present ; 8 Look through the Quality, and press into the Nature of that which happens either to your self, or another. Distinuish the parts of your Subject , and divide them into Matter and Form, and into Body, and Spirit 9 when they have them : Think upon your Last Hour; and don't trouble your self about other Peoples Faults , but leave them with those that must answer for them.
