indeed_o a_o essential_a part_n of_o man_n yet_o it_o be_v the_o less_o principal_a part_n since_o the_o soul_n can_v act_v and_o live_v as_o well_o out_o of_o it_o as_o in_o it_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v from_o the_o original_a of_o the_o soul_n that_o the_o birth_n of_o man_n be_v chief_o to_o be_v reckon_v rather_o than_o from_o the_o formation_n of_o the_o body_n now_o if_o according_o

man_n to_o speak_v proper_o be_v to_o be_v reckon_v from_o the_o union_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o body_n in_o the_o womb_n which_o as_o to_o priority_n of_o time_n seem_v to_o be_v instantaneous_o upon_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o soul_n rather_o than_o from_o the_o egress_n of_o the_o child_n from_o thence_o but_o since_o we_o be_v most_o take_v with_o what_o be_v most_o sensible_a to_o we_o

death_n in_o a_o spiritual_a sense_n which_o fall_v under_o consideration_n here_o the_o 1._o be_v a_o death_n in_o sin_n which_o be_v enter_v into_o at_o our_o birth_n into_o the_o world_n for_o than_o it_o be_v that_o we_o come_v to_o enter_v upon_o the_o stage_n of_o a_o sinful_a world_n we_o be_v shape_v in_o sin_n and_o conceive_v in_o iniquity_n and_o our_o birth_n into_o the_o world_n be_v rather_o a_o kind_n of_o death_n than_o life_n since_o we_o be_v expose_v thereby_o to_o sin_v and_o suffer_v to_o vanity_n and_o vexation_n of_o spirit_n the_o 2._o be_v a_o death_n to_o sin_n which_o be_v enter_v upon_o at_o the_o dissolution_n of_o the_o tie_n between_o soul_n and_o body_n upon_o which_o account_n it_o be_v call_v death_n but_o though_o it_o disunite_v soul_n and_o body_n for_o a_o time_n yet_o it_o may_v rather_o be_v call_v the_o birth_n of_o the_o soul_n in_o as_o far_o as_o it_o translate_v it_o from_o all_o manner_n of_o sin_n and_o misery_n it_o be_v true_a indeed_o as_o be_v say_v before_o regeneration_n be_v a_o kind_n of_o new_a birth_n to_o the_o soul_n in_o as_o far_o as_o it_o deliver_v we_o from_o the_o death_n of_o sin_n in_o a_o great_a measure_n yet_o since_o that_o be_v but_o a_o deliverance_n in_o part_n therefore_o it_o be_v by_o death_n only_o that_o we_o come_v total_o to_o die_v to_o sin_n though_o i_o grant_v that_o this_o death_n to_o sin_n come_v to_o be_v more_o illustrious_o display_v at_o the_o great_a period_n of_o the_o resurrection_n when_o the_o last_o enemy_n death_n come_v to_o be_v total_o destroy_v and_o swallow_v up_o in_o victory_n 1_o cor._n 15._o 54._o so_o that_o from_o hence_o we_o may_v see_v that_o our_o birth_n into_o this_o world_n be_v a_o death_n in_o sin_n whereas_o our_o dissolution_n or_o the_o separation_n of_o soul_n and_o body_n be_v proper_o a_o death_n to_o sin_n or_o a_o manumission_n and_o freedom_n give_v we_o both_o from_o sin_n and_o misery_n wherefore_o from_o all_o that_o have_v be_v say_v in_o the_o premise_n as_o to_o both_o these_o term_n of_o birth_n and_o death_n we_o may_v not_o injust_o invert_v the_o notion_n of_o they_o with_o respect_n to_o the_o saint_n and_o say_v that_o the_o day_n of_o our_o birth_n into_o this_o world_n be_v the_o day_n of_o our_o death_n in_o sin_n ignorance_n vanity_n and_o misery_n whereas_o the_o day_n of_o our_o death_n may_v be_v just_o repute_v to_o be_v the_o day_n of_o our_o birth_n into_o the_o world_n of_o purity_n knowledge_n light_n and_o rest_n but_o two_o i_o come_v now_o to_o consider_v what_o that_o thing_n we_o call_v life_n be_v which_o the_o two_o period_n of_o birth_n and_o death_n enter_v we_o upon_o and_o with_o respect_n to_o which_o we_o can_v only_o pass_v a_o right_a judgement_n of_o the_o preferableness_n of_o either_o of_o they_o and_o true_o as_o to_o this_o matter_n we_o be_v very_o much_o in_o the_o dark_a take_v that_o to_o be_v life_n which_o have_v little_o more_o
