dead_a and_o death_n and_o hades_n deliver_v up_o the_o dead_a which_o be_v in_o they_o and_o they_o be_v judge_v every_o man_n according_a to_o their_o work_n here_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o death_n and_o hades_n be_v proper_o speak_v in_o reference_n to_o all_o that_o be_v to_o be_v judge_v according_a to_o work_n and_o not_o only_o to_o they_o who_o name_n be_v write_v in_o the_o book_n of_o life_n and_o so_o that_o evacuate_v the_o first_o answer_n the_o second_o answer_n be_v that_o they_o that_o be_v not_o write_v in_o that_o book_n shall_v never_o suffer_v such_o a_o death_n as_o bring_v to_o hades_n but_o shall_v fall_v into_o a_o worse_a the_o second_o death_n but_o to_o this_o i_o reply_v that_o this_o distinction_n have_v no_o ground_n in_o the_o text_n but_o contrary_a wise_a both_o death_n and_o hades_n be_v equal_o there_o say_v to_o be_v destroy_v to_o all_o that_o be_v under_o they_o both_o who_o name_n be_v and_o be_v not_o write_v in_o the_o book_n of_o life_n as_o therefore_o to_o the_o godly_a that_o death_n that_o lead_v to_o hades_n be_v destroy_v so_o equal_o to_o the_o wicked_a and_o then_o they_o be_v both_o render_v eternal_a and_o then_o the_o wicked_n being_n cast_v into_o this_o lake_n be_v not_o can_v be_v to_o be_v destroy_v there_o but_o be_v a_o lake_n of_o fire_n to_o be_v torment_v there_o eternal_o as_o be_v most_o apparent_a v._n 10._o where_o the_o devil_n be_v cast_v into_o this_o lake_n and_o the_o beast_n and_o the_o false_a prophet_n say_v to_o be_v there_o already_o yet_o be_v not_o annihilate_v by_o be_v cast_v thither_o but_o as_o it_o follow_v shall_v be_v torment_v day_n and_o night_n for_o ever_o and_o ever_o that_o they_o fall_v into_o a_o worse_a death_n i_o willing_o grant_v and_o think_v it_o useful_a to_o the_o cause_n i_o defend_v for_o suppose_v a_o wicked_a man_n who_o impiety_n cost_v he_o dear_a here_o one_o of_o the_o devil_n sad_a martyr_n cruciate_v with_o the_o disease_n his_o sin_n have_v bring_v on_o he_o in_o a_o exquisite_a manner_n many_o year_n and_o at_o last_o either_o seize_v on_o by_o the_o hand_n of_o justice_n and_o deliver_v to_o a_o witty_o torment_v death_n or_o exercise_v many_o year_n with_o the_o rack_n of_o stone_n and_o strangury_n or_o the_o like_a and_o at_o last_o by_o these_o horrid_a misery_n his_o soul_n rend_v from_o his_o body_n and_o he_o continue_v in_o hades_n many_o hundred_o year_n and_o certain_o partake_v of_o no_o good_a in_o that_o estate_n at_o the_o utmost_a but_o rest_n from_o the_o labour_n of_o his_o former_a life_n can_v it_o in_o this_o case_n be_v say_v that_o the_o second_o death_n be_v worse_a than_o this_o and_o yet_o this_o second_o death_n define_v by_o a_o swift_a annihilation_n certain_o it_o can_v nothing_o but_o long_o continue_v if_o not_o endless_a torment_n can_v be_v say_v worse_a than_o those_o so_o long_o continue_v torment_n but_o whereas_o it_o be_v add_v that_o the_o second_o death_n be_v absolute_a and_o eternal_a destruction_n as_o the_o scripture_n elsewhere_o speak_v i_o reply_v that_o the_o scripture_n no_o where_o speak_v so_o never_o use_v second_o death_n of_o any_o such_o
