  The emotions are greatly alterative with respect to the body. 
  Therefore, through them the imagination is able to transform the 
  body. (Dr. Thomas Fienus, early modern physician, qtd. in Floyd- 
  Wilson and Sullivan 2007, 177) 
 
  What to ourselves in passion we propose, 
  The passion ending, doth the purpose lose. 
  The violence of either grief or joy 
  Their own enactures with themselves destroy. 
  (The Player-King, Hamlet 3.22. 194-97)
