this_o of_o we_o chap._n v._n of_o the_o argument_n of_o those_o which_o deny_v that_o the_o angel_n and_o devil_n can_v take_v unto_o they_o a_o body_n they_o which_o do_v deny_v that_o the_o angel_n and_o devil_n can_v take_v unto_o they_o a_o body_n do_v not_o aim_v at_o the_o mark_n to_o deny_v their_o essence_n as_o do_v the_o saducee_n but_o they_o do_v it_o only_o to_o disprove_v and_o impugn_v their_o apparition_n for_o it_o be_v a_o good_a consequent_a if_o the_o angel_n and_o devil_n take_v not_o upon_o they_o any_o body_n then_o can_v they_o not_o appear_v and_o if_o one_o shall_v reply_v unto_o they_o and_o say_v that_o in_o our_o spirit_n and_o understanding_n the_o angel_n and_o devil_n may_v give_v some_o show_n and_o token_n of_o their_o presence_n to_o this_o they_o have_v their_o exception_n ready_a that_o thing_n spiritual_a and_o intelligible_a and_o all_o sort_n of_o intelligence_n do_v represent_v themselves_o by_o thing_n that_o be_v sensible_a we_o will_v see_v therefore_o by_o what_o reason_n they_o endeavour_n to_o prove_v body_n first_o objection_n to_o prove_v that_o angel_n and_o devil_n can_v take_v unto_o they_o a_o body_n that_o a_o angel_n or_o a_o devil_n can_v take_v a_o body_n unto_o they_o no_o body_n say_v they_o can_v be_v unite_v to_o a_o incorporal_a substance_n but_o only_o that_o it_o may_v have_v a_o essence_n and_o a_o motion_n by_o the_o mean_n of_o that_o substance_n but_o the_o angel_n and_o devil_n can_v have_v a_o body_n unite_v in_o regard_n of_o any_o essence_n for_o in_o so_o do_v we_o must_v conclude_v that_o their_o body_n shall_v be_v natural_o unite_v unto_o they_o which_o be_v altogether_o untrue_a and_o therefore_o it_o remain_v that_o they_o can_v be_v unite_v unto_o a_o body_n but_o only_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o motion_n which_o be_v a_o reason_n of_o no_o sufficiency_n for_o the_o approve_v of_o their_o opinion_n for_o thereof_o will_v follow_v a_o absurdity_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o angel_n to_o wit_n that_o they_o may_v take_v all_o those_o body_n that_o be_v move_v by_o they_o which_o be_v a_o very_a great_a and_o gross_a error_n for_o the_o angel_n do_v move_v the_o tongue_n of_o balaams_n ass_n and_o yet_o he_o enter_v not_o in_o his_o tongue_n and_o therefore_o it_o can_v be_v say_v that_o a_o angel_n or_o a_o devil_n can_v take_v a_o body_n unto_o they_o objection_n answer_v to_o the_o first_o argument_n or_o objection_n to_o this_o argument_n i_o answer_v that_o true_a it_o be_v that_o a_o angel_n and_o a_o devil_n can_v to_o speak_v proper_o take_v unto_o they_o every_o body_n that_o be_v move_v for_o to_o take_v a_o body_n signify_v to_o adhere_v unto_o the_o body_n now_o the_o angel_n and_o the_o devil_n do_v take_v unto_o they_o a_o body_n not_o to_o unite_v it_o to_o their_o nature_n and_o to_o incorporate_v it_o together_o with_o their_o essence_n as_o he_o that_o take_v any_o kind_n of_o meat_n for_o sustenance_n much_o less_o to_o unite_v the_o same_o to_o their_o person_n as_o the_o son_n of_o god_n take_v upon_o he_o the_o humane_a nature_n but_o they_o do_v it_o only_o that_o they_o may_v visible_o represent_v themselves_o unto_o the_o sight_n of_o man_n and_o in_o this_o sort_n the_o angel_n &_o devil_n be_v say_v to_o take_v a_o body_n such_o as_o be_v apt_a &_o fit_a for_o their_o apparition_n hierachiae_fw-la cap._n

discern_v argument_n the_o second_o argument_n again_o they_o say_v that_o if_o the_o angel_n and_o devil_n do_v take_v a_o body_n it_o be_v not_o for_o any_o necessity_n that_o they_o have_v but_o only_o to_o instruct_v and_o exhort_v we_o to_o live_v well_o as_o do_v the_o angel_n or_o to_o deceive_v and_o destroy_v we_o as_o do_v the_o devil_n now_o both_o to_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o the_o imaginary_a vision_n or_o the_o tentation_n be_v sufficient_a and_o therefore_o it_o seem_v that_o it_o be_v not_o needful_a they_o shall_v take_v veto_fw-la they_o any_o body_n argument_n answer_v to_o the_o second_o argument_n i_o answer_v that_o not_o only_o the_o imaginary_a vision_n of_o angel_n be_v necessary_a for_o our_o instruction_n but_o that_o also_o which_o be_v corporal_a and_o bodily_a as_o we_o shall_v show_v anon_o when_o we_o entreat_v of_o the_o apparition_n of_o angel_n and_o as_o concern_v the_o devil_n god_n do_v permit_v they_o both_o visible_o and_o invisible_o to_o tempt_v we_o some_o to_o their_o salvation_n and_o some_o to_o their_o damnation_n moreover_o they_o thus_o argue_v 12._o the_o three_o argument_n li._n 3._o ca._n 11._o &_o 12._o that_o god_n appear_v unto_o the_o patriarch_n as_o be_v to_o be_v see_v in_o the_o old_a testament_n and_o the_o good_a angel_n likewise_o as_o saint_n augustine_n prove_v in_o his_o book_n of_o the_o trimitie_n now_o we_o may_v not_o say_v that_o god_n take_v upon_o he_o any_o body_n except_o only_o in_o that_o mystery_n of_o his_o incarnation_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v needless_a to_o affirm_v that_o the_o angel_n which_o appear_v unto_o man_n may_v take_v upon_o they_o a_o body_n argument_n answer_v to_o their_o three_o argument_n i_o answer_v as_o do_v saint_n augustine_n who_o say_v that_o all_o the_o apparition_n which_o be_v in_o the_o old_a testament_n be_v make_v by_o the_o ministry_n of_o angel_n who_o form_v and_o shape_v unto_o themselves_o certain_a shape_n and_o figure_n imaginary_a and_o corporal_a by_o which_o they_o may_v reduce_v and_o draw_v unto_o god_n the_o soul_n and_o spirit_n of_o he_o that_o see_v they_o as_o it_o be_v possible_a that_o by_o figure_n which_o be_v sensible_a man_n may_v be_v draw_v and_o lift_v up_o in_o spirit_n and_o contemplation_n unto_o god_n and_o therefore_o we_o may_v well_o say_v that_o the_o angel_n do_v take_v unto_o they_o a_o body_n when_o they_o appear_v in_o such_o apparition_n but_o now_o god_n be_v say_v to_o have_v appear_v because_o god_n be_v the_o butt_n and_o mark_n whereunto_o by_o vision_n of_o those_o body_n the_o angel_n do_v endeavour_v and_o seek_v to_o lift_v up_o unto_o god_n the_o soul_n of_o man_n and_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o the_o scripture_n say_v that_o in_o these_o apparition_n sometime_o god_n appear_v and_o sometime_o the_o angel_n argument_n their_o four_o argument_n furthermore_o they_o make_v this_o objection_n like_a as_o it_o be_v agree_v natural_o to_o the_o soul_n to_o be_v unite_v to_o the_o body_n so_o not_o to_o be_v unite_v unto_o a_o body_n be_v proper_a and_o natural_a unto_o the_o angel_n and_o devil_n now_o the_o soul_n can_v be_v separate_v from_o the_o body_n when_o it_o will_v therefore_o the_o angel_n and_o devil_n also_o can_v take_v unto_o they_o a_o body_n when_o they_o will_n for_o answer_v whereof_o i_o confess_v that_o every_o thing_n bear_v and_o engender_v have_v not_o any_o power_n over_o his_o be_v argument_n answer_v to_o their_o four_o argument_n for_o all_o the_o power_n of_o any_o thing_n flow_v from_o the_o essence_n thereof_o or_o presuppose_v a_o essence_n and_o because_o the_o soul_n by_o reason_n of_o she_o be_v be_v unite_v unto_o the_o body_n as_o the_o form_n thereof_o it_o be_v not_o in_o her_o puissance_n to_o deliver_v herself_o from_o the_o union_n of_o

thing_n and_o in_o work_a man_n in_o it_o which_o be_v proper_a unto_o god_n only_o howbeit_o that_o god_n do_v not_o make_v a_o part_n in_o the_o essence_n of_o any_o thing_n for_o god_n be_v a_o substance_n separate_v and_o abstract_v sole_o and_o only_o in_o itself_o and_o for_o the_o further_a interpretation_n of_o saint_n jerome_n and_o the_o gloze_v which_o say_v that_o the_o devil_n be_v not_o in_o image_n we_o may_v affirm_v that_o they_o do_v privy_o and_o close_o reprehend_v the_o false_a opinion_n of_o the_o paynim_n and_o idolater_n who_o make_v but_o one_o thing_n of_o the_o idol_n be_v it_o of_o wood_n brass_n or_o stone_n and_o of_o the_o unclean_a spirit_n that_o remain_v within_o it_o and_o by_o that_o mean_n will_v have_v make_v a_o live_a substance_n of_o that_o which_o in_o it_o own_o nature_n be_v senseless_a and_o without_o life_n not_o have_v either_o hand_n to_o touch_v withal_o or_o foot_n to_o go_v on_o or_o tongue_n to_o speak_v with_o except_o such_o only_a as_o the_o devil_n do_v seem_v to_o give_v unto_o it_o by_o his_o deceitful_a illusion_n argument_n their_o fourteen_o argument_n to_o make_v short_a they_o object_n this_o argument_n also_o if_o the_o angel_n and_o devil_n do_v take_v to_o they_o any_o body_n either_o they_o be_v unite_v unto_o the_o whole_a body_n or_o to_o some_o part_n thereof_o if_o they_o be_v unite_v only_o to_o a_o part_n thereof_o then_o can_v they_o not_o move_v the_o other_o part_n but_o only_o by_o the_o mean_n of_o that_o part_n which_o they_o do_v move_v but_o this_o can_v possible_o be_v for_o otherwise_o the_o body_n assume_v shall_v have_v such_o part_n as_o shall_v have_v the_o organ_n determine_v to_o the_o motion_n which_o be_v proper_a to_o none_o but_o live_a body_n but_o if_o the_o angel_n and_o devil_n be_v unite_v immediate_o to_o the_o whole_a body_n it_o behoove_v they_o then_o also_o to_o possess_v every_o part_n of_o that_o body_n which_o they_o have_v take_v to_o they_o and_o so_o by_o that_o mean_v they_o shall_v be_v in_o many_o place_n which_o be_v proper_a and_o appertain_v to_o god_n only_o and_o therefore_o the_o angel_n and_o devil_n can_v take_v any_o body_n unto_o they_o argument_n answer_v to_o their_o fourteen_o argument_n to_o this_o argument_n answer_n may_v be_v make_v in_o this_o manner_n that_o the_o angel_n or_o devil_n so_o take_v any_o body_n upon_o he_o be_v whole_o in_o the_o whole_a body_n which_o it_o assume_v or_o else_o in_o a_o part_n thereof_o as_o the_o soul_n be_v in_o the_o body_n for_o albeit_o he_o be_v not_o the_o form_n of_o the_o body_n which_o it_o assume_v as_o be_v the_o soul_n yet_o so_o it_o be_v that_o he_o be_v the_o mover_n thereof_o now_o it_o behoove_v that_o the_o mover_n and_o the_o thing_n move_v shall_v be_v together_o and_o it_o be_v nothing_o to_o the_o purpose_n to_o say_v that_o a_o angel_n or_o devil_n fill_v a_o body_n whole_a and_o entire_o of_o substance_n can_v be_v in_o divers_a place_n for_o the_o whole_a body_n assume_v by_o a_o angel_n or_o devil_n be_v not_o but_o in_o one_o place_n only_o albeit_o the_o same_o be_v admit_v to_o have_v many_o member_n and_o many_o part_n thus_o far_o have_v i_o do_v my_o best_a both_o to_o set_v down_o and_o to_o refute_v all_o the_o reason_n and_o argument_n object_v by_o those_o who_o deny_v that_o angel_n and_o devil_n can_v assume_v

come_v to_o conclude_v this_o discourse_n i_o may_v not_o forget_v to_o tell_v you_o how_o that_o many_o of_o the_o rabbin_n and_o jew_n which_o have_v take_v upon_o they_o to_o interpret_v the_o holy_a scripture_n have_v hold_v opinion_n and_o be_v of_o the_o belief_n that_o those_o angel_n which_o appear_v to_o the_o patriarch_n and_o prophet_n do_v not_o appear_v in_o any_o body_n nor_o do_v assume_v unto_o they_o any_o body_n to_o make_v themselves_o visible_a and_o of_o this_o opinion_n among_o other_o be_v rabbi_n moses_n one_o of_o the_o most_o learned_a rabbin_n of_o the_o jew_n who_o say_v that_o all_o that_o which_o be_v read_v and_o record_v in_o the_o old_a testament_n of_o the_o apparition_n of_o angel_n do_v come_v by_o a_o imaginary_a vision_n that_o be_v to_o say_v sometime_o in_o sleep_v and_o sometime_o in_o wake_v but_o this_o position_n as_o saint_n thomas_n of_o aquin_n call_v it_o 7._o the_o aquin_n quest_n de_fw-la miracalis_fw-la arti._n 7._o can_v

to_o know_v and_o discern_v a_o difference_n that_o which_o be_v signify_v and_o declare_v to_o have_v appear_v pure_o and_o simple_o to_o our_o eye_n from_o that_o which_o be_v say_v to_o be_v do_v
