concern_v the_o accusation_n of_o conscience_n quest_n 1._o whether_o this_o power_n to_o accuse_v be_v in_o adam_n before_o his_o fall_n answ_n it_o be_v but_o not_o in_o act_n because_o there_o be_v in_o he_o no_o matter_n or_o cause_n whereby_o conscience_n shall_v accuse_v he_o yet_o that_o it_o have_v power_n it_o be_v clear_a for_o present_o upon_o his_o transgression_n it_o accuse_v he_o and_o the_o text_n say_v that_o their_o eye_n be_v open_v that_o be_v the_o eye_n of_o the_o understanding_n and_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o conscience_n by_o which_o they_o know_v what_o they_o have_v commit_v against_o god_n their_o eye_n be_v open_v but_o no_o new_a quality_n wrought_v in_o the_o soul_n other_o than_o they_o have_v before_o quest_n 2._o if_o aptness_n to_o accuse_v be_v in_o the_o creation_n it_o may_v be_v ask_v whether_o it_o be_v now_o a_o evil_a conscience_n that_o accuse_v answ_n it_o be_v not_o simple_o evil_a first_o because_o this_o power_n be_v and_o be_v from_o

they_o renew_v repentance_n upon_o a_o fall_n quest_n 3._o if_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v call_v a_o evil_a conscience_n whether_o may_v it_o be_v term_v a_o good_a conscience_n answ_n from_o the_o accusation_n simple_o it_o can_v be_v call_v a_o good_a conscience_n first_o because_o it_o be_v a_o defectivenesse_n in_o respect_n of_o that_o peace_n which_o man_n have_v in_o the_o creation_n and_o shall_v enjoy_v in_o heaven_n second_o because_o it_o follow_v upon_o adam_n fall_n as_o a_o punishment_n for_o sin_n here_o and_o the_o worm_n in_o hell_n hereafter_o three_o for_o that_o all_o the_o wicked_a have_v a_o accuse_a conscience_n but_o not_o a_o good_a conscience_n therefore_o the_o conscience_n from_o the_o very_a act_n of_o accuse_v can_v have_v the_o name_n of_o either_o a_o good_a or_o a_o evil_a conscience_n but_o as_o the_o person_n be_v in_o who_o it_o be_v for_o if_o he_o be_v evil_a his_o conscience_n be_v evil_a though_o in_o some_o thing_n it_o excuse_v he_o and_o
