agree_v not_o with_o the_o scripture_n which_o show_v we_o the_o ascension_n of_o christ_n into_o heaven_n to_o be_v after_o his_o death_n nor_o can_v i_o conceive_v that_o it_o be_v every_o where_n

and_o say_v then_o follow_v the_o separation_n of_o the_o two_o nature_n of_o christ_n i_o answer_v that_o such_o a_o thing_n do_v not_o follow_v for_o although_o the_o humane_a nature_n of_o christ_n
