that_o they_o may_v neither_o be_v surprise_v by_o tribulation_n and_o suffering_n when_o they_o come_v nor_o sink_v under_o they_o and_o to_o enable_v they_o to_o deal_v with_o the_o most_o

and_o meek_a and_o tender-hearted_a and_o not_o apt_a to_o revenge_v injury_n but_o then_o that_o true_a wisdom_n which_o will_v secure_v they_o from_o run_v into_o unnecessary_a danger_n will_v likewise_o prompt_v they_o ready_o to_o encounter_v and_o submit_v to_o those_o pain_n trouble_n and_o hardship_n which_o be_v necessary_a to_o establish_v the_o heavenly_a doctrine_n of_o their_o

etc._n from_o which_o word_n we_o may_v deduce_v several_a observation_n 1._o that_o the_o soul_n and_o body_n be_v distinct_a being_n 2._o that_o after_o the_o dissolution_n of_o the_o body_n the_o soul_n do_v live_v in_o the_o separate_a state_n 3._o that_o nothing_o less_o than_o the_o almighty_a power_n of_o god_n can_v destroy_v the_o be_v of_o the_o soul_n we_o have_v a_o noble_a argument_n before_o we_o and_o which_o the_o infidelity_n of_o our_o time_n have_v render_v very_o necessary_a it_o be_v our_o soul_n which_o make_v we_o like_o god_n and_o superior_a to_o other_o creature_n and_o its_o subsistence_n in_o the_o boundless_a eternity_n which_o shall_v succeed_v our_o short_a abode_n in_o this_o world_n in_o treat_v whereof_o i_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o avoid_v all_o

proposition_n i_o chief_o shall_v insist_v upon_o at_o this_o time_n be_v these_o two_o 1._o that_o the_o soul_n and_o body_n be_v distinct_a being_n 2._o that_o after_o the_o dissolution_n of_o the_o body_n the_o soul_n do_v exist_v and_o live_v in_o the_o separate_a state_n 1._o that_o the_o soul_n and_o body_n be_v distinct_a being_n the_o very_a argument_n our_o lord_n use_v to_o persuade_v the_o disciple_n not_o to_o fear_v those_o who_o can_v kill_v the_o body_n rest_v upon_o this_o supposition_n that_o the_o soul_n and_o body_n be_v being_n distinct_a one_o from_o another_o for_o if_o man_n have_v no_o soul_n or_o if_o the_o soul_n be_v not_o a_o different_a thing_n from_o the_o body_n or_o if_o other_o man_n have_v as_o much_o power_n over_o the_o soul_n as_o the_o body_n there_o will_v be_v no_o force_n in_o his_o reason_v but_o to_o make_v this_o truth_n the_o more_o evident_a i_o shall_v draw_v argument_n from_o these_o three_o head_n 1._o from_o the_o distinct_a property_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o body_n 2._o from_o the_o incapacity_n of_o matter_n to_o think_v 3._o from_o the_o difference_n every_o where_o suppose_v in_o scripture_n between_o the_o soul_n and_o body_n 1._o from_o the_o distinct_a property_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o body_n now_o if_o we_o will_v give_v ourselves_o leave_v a_o little_a to_o contemplate_v our_o own_o nature_n we_o shall_v discover_v in_o we_o power_n quality_n and_o action_n which_o be_v peculiar_a to_o the_o soul_n and_o quite_o different_a from_o the_o affection_n and_o quality_n which_o belong_v to_o the_o body_n essential_a property_n of_o the_o soul_n be_v to_o think_v to_o understand_v to_o will_v to_o consider_v to_o judge_v and_o the_o like_a but_o inseparable_a property_n of_o body_n be_v length_n breadth_n

from_o the_o mind_n or_o extension_n from_o the_o body_n you_o can_v have_v no_o conception_n or_o apprehension_n of_o the_o one_o or_o the_o other_o so_o they_o be_v very_o distinct_a not_o have_v the_o least_o affinity_n each_o with_o other_o thus_o consideration_n remembrance_n judgement_n liberty_n conscience_n have_v no_o relation_n unto_o body_n and_o do_v not_o enter_v into_o the_o notion_n and_o idea_n of_o it_o neither_o do_v length_n breadth_n size_n figure_n hardness_n softness_n enter_v into_o the_o conception_n of_o a_o soul_n for_o we_o never_o speak_v of_o the_o length_n or_o the_o shape_n or_o the_o bulk_n or_o the_o colour_n of_o our_o thought_n since_o that_o will_v be_v absurd_a speech_n by_o which_o we_o can_v mean_v nothing_o so_o that_o it_o be_v manifest_a our_o soul_n be_v distinguish_v from_o our_o body_n by_o property_n which_o be_v peculiar_a and_o essential_a to_o each_o of_o they_o and_o that_o we_o have_v as_o clear_v full_a and_o distinct_a apprehension_n of_o the_o attribute_n that_o be_v essential_a to_o the_o soul_n as_o of_o those_o which_o be_v inseparable_a from_o the_o body_n for_o do_v not_o every_o man_n as_o plain_o

they_o be_v the_o property_n of_o the_o soul_n to_o deliberate_v to_o consider_v and_o after_o any_o manner_n to_o think_v for_o when_o he_o look_v upon_o body_n and_o its_o power_n and_o likewise_o

can_v no_o other_o way_n work_n upon_o our_o sense_n but_o by_o motion_n which_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o all_o that_o variety_n which_o show_v itself_o in_o body_n if_o then_o matter_n can_v
