be_v drink_v or_o so_o enrage_v and_o therefore_o in_o not_o suppress_v those_o inordinate_a appetite_n he_o himself_o be_v cause_n of_o his_o own_o ignorance_n and_o may_v in_o that_o regard_n be_v say_v to_o have_v do_v that_o evil_n be_v ignorant_a but_o can_v be_v true_o say_v to_o have_v do_v it_o through_o ignorance_n neither_o be_v his_o act_n to_o be_v account_v as_o do_v by_o

act_n be_v voluntary_a make_v the_o act_n which_o be_v thereby_o occasion_v to_o be_v voluntary_a also_o but_o we_o be_v say_v to_o do_v thing_n through_o ignorance_n when_o we_o ourselves_o give_v

sense_n be_v cause_n of_o that_o unite_n but_o we_o shall_v never_o be_v persuade_v to_o grant_v unto_o they_o that_o the_o sense_n be_v certain_a power_n of_o the_o body_n for_o we_o have_v already_o

in_o one_o these_o thing_n consider_v it_o be_v most_o agreeable_a to_o reason_n we_o shall_v affirm_v according_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o incorporeall-thing_n and_o as_o be_v aforesaid_a that_o these_o essence_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o body_n be_v unite_v without_o confusion_n and_o in_o such_o manner_n that_o the_o more_o divine_a nature_n be_v nothing_o impair_v by_o the_o inferior_a
