6956,,"","Freedom is the Name of Virtue; and Slavery, of Vice: and both these are Actions of Choice. But neither of them belongs to Things, in which Choice hath no Share. But Fortune is accustomed to dispose at her Pleasure of the Body, and those Things relating to the Body in which Choice hath no Share. For no one is a Slave, whose Choice is free. Fortune is an evil Chain to the Body; and Vice, to the Soul. For he whose Body is unbound, and whose Soul is chained, is a Slave. On the contrary, he whose Body is chained, and his Soul unbound, is free. The Chain of the Body, Nature unbinds by Death; and Vice, by Money: the Chain of the Soul, Virtue unbinds, by Learning, and Experience, and philosophic Exercise.

If, therefore, you would be a musical and harmonious Person, whenever, in Parties of Drinking, the Soul is bedewed with Wine, suffer her not to go forth, and defile herself.
