and_o movable_a virtue_n also_o and_o action_n be_v partly_o individual_a and_o immovable_a so_o far_o forth_o as_o it_o agree_v with_o divine_a thing_n steadfast_o work_v and_o partly_o divisible_a

intellect_n be_v in_o the_o body_n of_o the_o world_n necessity_n require_v it_o because_o the_o body_n of_o the_o world_n be_v through_o life_n make_v fit_a for_o the_o intellect_n therefore_o look_v how_o it_o be_v in_o regard_n of_o life_n and_o the_o like_v it_o be_v in_o respect_n of_o the_o intellect_n and_o as_o it_o have_v not_o only_o a_o natural_a lie_v hide_v in_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o world_n but_o a_o animal_n also_o that_o be_v a_o soul_n exist_v in_o itself_o so_o have_v it_o not_o only_o a_o intellectual_a quality_n infuse_v in_o the_o soul_n but_o also_o a_o intellectual_a substance_n therein_o remain_v for_o certain_a quality_n be_v very_o where_o reduce_v to_o certain_a substance_n as_o a_o vital_a quality_n to_o a_o vital_a substance_n so_o also_o a_o intellectual_a quality_n to_o a_o intellectual_a substance_n but_o as_o touch_v these_o thing_n we_o shall_v explain_v ourselves_o more_o at_o large_a the_o whole_a body_n of_o the_o world_n be_v a_o certain_a body_n compose_v of_o all_o the_o four_o element_n the_o member_n or_o part_n whereof_o be_v the_o body_n of_o all_o live_a creature_n for_o the_o small_a body_n of_o every_o animal_n be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o world_n body_n neither_o be_v it_o compose_v of_o the_o whole_a element_n of_o fire_n air_n water_n or_o earth_n but_o of_o some_o part_n of_o these_o element_n by_o how_o much_o therefore_o the_o whole_a be_v more_o perfect_a than_o a_o part_n thereof_o by_o so_o much_o be_v the_o body_n of_o the_o world_n more_o perfect_a than_o the_o body_n of_o any_o one_o live_v creature_n hence_o be_v it_o absurd_a to_o think_v that_o a_o imperfect_a body_n shall_v have_v a_o soul_n but_o that_o it_o neither_o have_v a_o soul_n nor_o can_v live_v perfect_a none_o will_v be_v so_o mad_a as_o to_o say_v the_o part_n live_v and_o not_o the_o whole_a therefore_o the_o whole_a body_n of_o the_o world_n live_v whilst_o the_o body_n of_o the_o animal_n therein_o live_v which_o be_v the_o part_n thereof_o and_o now_o see_v there_o must_v needs_o be_v one_o soul_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n we_o will_v in_o the_o next_o place_n inquire_v in_o what_o part_n thereof_o this_o soul_n may_v reside_v whence_o she_o distribute_v her_o spirit_n through_o all_o thing_n and_o preserve_v the_o same_o so_o distribute_v she_o fix_v not_o her_o seat_n and_o pavilion_n in_o body_n subject_a to_o variety_n of_o change_n and_o manifold_a corruption_n as_o be_v the_o element_n and_o elementary_a body_n wherefore_o see_v that_o in_o heaven_n there_o be_v no_o corruption_n of_o body_n there_o certain_o be_v her_o place_n of_o residence_n and_o although_o those_o element_n also_o may_v be_v in_o heaven_n but_o most_o pure_o or_o spiritual_o yet_o be_v it_o manifest_a that_o the_o element_n of_o fire_n have_v therein_o dominion_n even_o as_o here_o in_o this_o inferior_a part_n of_o the_o world_n where_o the_o sovereignty_n of_o the_o element_n remain_v in_o the_o power_n of_o fire_n and_o this_o we_o be_v sensible_a of_o in_o our_o own_o body_n but_o much_o more_o if_o we_o do_v but_o consider_v how_o the_o fire_n by_o no_o mean_n pu●rifieth_v nor_o be_v any_o way_n corrupt_v notwithstanding_o it_o often_o corrupt_v other_o body_n where_o it_o get_v preeminency_n moreover_o nature_n afford_v it_o earth_n water_n and_o air_n as_o a_o certain_a subject_a matter_n whereon_o to_o exercise_n its_o power_n the_o air_n itself_o as_o also_o the_o earth_n with_o the_o water_n surround_v it_o whence_o we_o be_v nourish_v and_o draw_v our_o breath_n be_v indeed_o so_o affect_v of_o the_o fire_n about_o it_o that_o sometime_o heat_n do_v therein_o predominate_a otherwhiles_o it_o be_v so_o extenuate_v that_o for_o want_v of_o heat_n it_o leave_v its_o own_o

have_v its_o residence_n in_o heaven_n of_o necessity_n it_o must_v live_v in_o a_o fiery_a substance_n for_o heaven_n be_v a_o fiery_a essence_n but_o withal_o most_o temperate_a pure_a lucid_n and_o
