or_o change_v so_o much_o for_o the_o better_a may_v proceed_v from_o a_o twofold_a cause_n either_o from_o without_o as_o in_o a_o cloud_n when_o penetrate_v with_o the_o ray_n of_o the_o sun_n or_o from_o within_o as_o when_o a_o globe_n of_o crystal_n be_v enlighten_v by_o a_o burn_a and_o shine_a lamp_n set_v in_o it_o the_o question_n still_o remain_v whether_o this_o bright_a illumination_n

his_o birth_n or_o from_o some_o intrinsical_a principle_n or_o fountain_n of_o light_n which_o like_o the_o lamp_n upon_o the_o crystal_n diffuse_v itself_o upon_o his_o body_n the_o solution_n of_o this_o question_n depend_v upon_o that_o general_o know_a doctrine_n of_o divine_n with_o st._n thomas_n 4._o that_o the_o soul_n of_o our_o redeemer_n by_o virtue_n of_o the_o hypostatical_a union_n
