s._n tell_v i_o why_o you_o judge_v we_o shall_v think_v so_o m._n first_o for_o asmutch_v as_o when_o the_o holy_a scripture_n do_v diligent_o reckon_v up_o the_o special_a visible_a work_n of_o

be_v no_o probable_a reason_n allege_v of_o so_o envious_a and_o dangerous_a silence_n and_o therefore_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o the_o ancient_a father_n in_o fore_a time_n do_v very_o well_o think_v and_o gather_v that_o there_o be_v but_o one_o god_n because_o there_o be_v but_o one_o world_n and_o contrariwise_o that_o there_o be_v but_o one_o world_n because_o there_o be_v but_o one_o god_n moreover_o all_o this_o frame_n of_o many_o and_o sundry_a world_n how_o foolish_a and_o childish_a be_v it_o for_o why_o shall_v god_n make_v many_o world_n since_o he_o may_v comprehend_v allthing_n more_o commodious_o in_o one_o and_o the_o same_o be_v of_o so_o great_a receit_n which_o he_o mean_v to_o comprehend_v in_o those_o diverse_a and_o sundry_a world_n but_o as_o it_o be_v

god_o have_v create_v more_o in_o number_n those_o world_n shall_v differ_v in_o number_n only_o and_o not_o in_o kind_n or_o likeness_n what_o need_v he_o then_o to_o create_v one_o manner_n of_o

that_o they_o be_v in_o number_n infinite_a i_o let_v pass_v those_o absurdity_n which_o notwithstanding_o do_v necessary_o follow_v to_o wit_n that_o never_o almost_o we_o shall_v have_v any_o

and_o 18_o chapter_n and_o irenaeus_n in_o his_o 2._o book_n and_o 43._o chapter_n do_v follow_v m._n it_o be_v true_a which_o you_o say_v for_o god_n make_v not_o all-thing_n at_o the_o first_o of_o

to_o be_v one_o thing_n and_o the_o night_n another_o yet_o god_n make_v nothing_o that_o be_v eevill_n but_o why_o he_o create_v they_o in_o such_o variety_n this_o be_v the_o cause_n both_o for_o that_o the_o power_n and_o wisdom_n of_o god_n be_v thereby_o more_o apparent_a and_o also_o the_o thing_n themselves_o by_o this_o repugnancy_n of_o contrary_a virtue_n and_o nature_n and_o

create_v the_o nature_n of_o this_o world_n and_o of_o the_o thing_n contain_v therein_o he_o think_v it_o convenient_a to_o refresh_v and_o ease_v they_o with_o change_n and_o course_n because_o they_o be_v body_n or_o appertain_v to_o body_n and_o likewise_o to_o nourish_v they_o with_o a_o certain_a mutual_a knot_n and_o temperament_n because_o they_o be_v diverse_a part_n of_o one_o
