be_v a_o kind_n of_o honour_n in_o be_v fair_o bury_v and_o perhaps_o beside_o the_o honour_n a_o further_a mystery_n in_o it_o in_o what_o place_n the_o body_n be_v lay_v for_o why_o else_o shall_v joseph_n be_v so_o earnest_a to_o have_v his_o bone_n carry_v out_o of_o egypt_n and_o be_v bring_v to_o canaan_n to_o be_v bury_v there_o but_o what_o needs_o express_v in_o our_o creed_n that_o he_o be_v bury_v see_v what_o need_v believe_v that_o he_o be_v bury_v our_o salvation_n have_v sufficient_o be_v wrought_v by_o his_o death_n though_o he_o have_v not_o be_v bury_v at_o all_o and_o be_v it_o not_o then_o sufficient_a that_o i_o believe_v he_o be_v dead_a unless_o i_o believe_v also_o that_o he_o be_v bury_v but_o see_v our_o salvation_n be_v wrought_v by_o his_o death_n it_o be_v fit_a to_o make_v the_o opinion_n of_o his_o death_n undoubted_a and_o to_o leave_v no_o scruple_n in_o the_o mind_n about_o it_o which_o can_v not_o well_o be_v do_v but_o by_o add_v that_o he_o be_v bury_v for_o if_o he_o have_v not_o be_v bury_v it_o may_v be_v think_v he_o be_v but_o in_o a_o trance_n and_o then_o no_o great_a matter_n to_o revive_v again_o and_o so_o his_o resurrection_n have_v be_v slight_v but_o burial_n be_v a_o thing_n that_o consummate_v death_n and_o make_v man_n dead_a though_o they_o be_v not_o dead_a before_o as_o it_o be_v report_v of_o the_o subtle_a schooleman_n scotus_n that_o fall_v into_o a_o trance_n by_o some_o fit_a of_o infirmity_n he_o be_v whether_o out_o of_o officious_a or_o malicious_a hastiness_n sudden_o bury_v and_o find_v afterward_o by_o evident_a sign_n that_o he_o be_v bury_v alive_a and_o therefore_o to_o leave_v no_o scruple_n for_o doubt_v of_o the_o true_a death_n of_o christ_n it_o be_v necessary_a to_o be_v add_v that_o he_o be_v bury_v and_o now_o that_o we_o have_v see_v christ_n dead_a and_o bury_v one_o will_v think_v there_o be_v a_o end_n of_o article_n of_o belief_n concern_v he_o and_o yet_o

end_v in_o his_o death_n and_o burial_n what_o hope_n can_v we_o have_v of_o benefit_n by_o believe_v in_o he_o but_o now_o christ_n humane_a nature_n consist_v of_o a_o body_n and_o a_o soul_n and_o they_o be_v by_o death_n part_v as_o that_o article_n tell_v what_o be_v dead_a become_v of_o his_o body_n that_o it_o be_v bury_v so_o this_o next_o article_n tell_v what_o become_v of_o his_o soul_n that_o it_o descend_v into_o hell_n for_o his_o soul_n be_v all_o the_o he_o now_o that_o in_o this_o article_n be_v intend_v but_o be_v this_o a_o article_n to_o make_v we_o be_v glad_a off_o have_v we_o not_o be_v better_o to_o have_v leave_v he_o at_o his_o be_v dead_a and_o lie_v quiet_o in_o his_o grave_n then_o to_o bring_v he_o afterward_o to_o descend_v into_o hell_n not_o at_o all_o for_o mark_v the_o consequence_n of_o this_o article_n that_o if_o notwithstanding_o his_o burial_n we_o shall_v be_v doubtful_a still_o of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n for_o one_o may_v be_v bury_v for_o dead_a and_o yet_o revive_v again_o as_o scotus_n do_v yet_o this_o article_n that_o now_o come_v in_o will_v strike_v the_o matter_n dead_a and_o indeed_o if_o there_o be_v nothing_o else_o in_o the_o article_n but_o that_o it_o make_v we_o infallible_o certain_a of_o his_o death_n it_o be_v cause_n enough_o for_o give_v it_o a_o place_n in_o this_o our_o creed_n see_v there_o be_v nothing_o that_o require_v so_o great_a a_o confirmation_n as_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n because_o upon_o his_o death_n it_o be_v that_o the_o main_a work_n of_o our_o salvation_n depend_v and_o certain_o a_o great_a confirmation_n of_o his_o death_n there_o can_v be_v then_o this_o that_o while_o his_o body_n be_v lie_v in_o the_o grave_a his_o soul_n descend_v into_o hell_n for_o to_o have_v the_o body_n in_o one_o place_n and_o the_o soul_n in_o another_o both_o at_o once_o be_v manifest_o and_o infallible_o to_o be_v dead_a see_v death_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o to_o have_v the_o soul_n and_o body_n to_o be_v divide_v but_o now_o concern_v his_o descent_n into_o hell_n it_o be_v wonderful_a what_o diversity_n of_o opinion_n there_o be_v at_o this_o day_n about_o it_o partly_o concern_v the_o place_n and_o partly_o concern_v the_o motion_n first_o what_o be_v mean_v by_o hell_n and_o then_o what_o be_v mean_v by_o descend_v so_o differ_v all_o in_o the_o understanding_n of_o the_o word_n as_o if_o they_o be_v not_o all_o of_o one_o language_n at_o least_o have_v a_o taint_n of_o babel_n remain_v still_o in_o they_o some_o have_v think_v that_o by_o descend_v into_o

this_o be_v so_o it_o shall_v rather_o be_v say_v that_o hell_n ascend_v up_o to_o he_o then_o that_o he_o descend_v into_o hell_n especial_o see_v those_o agony_n be_v violent_a this_o descend_v
