very_o secure_a against_o the_o formidable_a objection_n which_o he_o mention_n p._n 35._o of_o its_o be_v too_o intelligible_a upon_o the_o whole_a matter_n i_o see_v not_o what_o service_n it_o can_v do_v he_o to_o put_v intelligent_a person_n instead_o of_o mind_n for_o i_o think_v every_o person_n have_v be_v intelligent_a boethius_n his_o definition_n which_o he_o allege_v plain_o imply_v so_o much_o and_o one_o will_v think_v he_o must_v know_v that_o it_o be_v the_o usual_a notion_n of_o person_n to_o understand_v by_o it_o suppositum_fw-la rationale_fw-la or_o intelligent_n therefore_o methinks_v he_o shall_v not_o reckon_v it_o necessary_a to_o distinguish_v person_n as_o he_o do_v by_o this_o addition_n of_o intelligent_a into_o such_o as_o be_v person_n and_o such_o as_o be_v no_o person_n but_o since_o he_o express_o say_v and_o i_o think_v for_o the_o most_o part_n true_o that_o 30._o the_o three_o person_n or_o subsistence_n in_o the_o ever_o bless_a trinity_n be_v three_o real_a substantial_a subsistance_n each_o of_o which_o have_v entire_o all_o the_o perfection_n of_o the_o divine_a nature_n divine_a wisdom_n power_n and_o goodness_n and_o therefore_o each_o of_o they_o be_v eternal_a infinite_a mind_n as_o distinct_a from_o each_o other_o as_o any_o other_o three_o person_n and_o this_o he_o believe_v the_o dean_n will_v no_o more_o recant_v than_o he_o will_v renounce_v a_o trinity_n for_o all_o the_o wit_n of_o man_n can_v not_o find_v a_o medium_n between_o a_o substantial_a trinity_n and_o a_o trinity_n of_o name_n or_o a_o trinity_n of_o mere_a mode_n respect_n and_o relation_n in_o the_o same_o single_a essence_n which_o be_v no_o trinity_n at_o all_o as_o also_o he_o have_v say_v much_o to_o the_o same_o purpose_n before_o that_o to_o talk_v of_o three_o subsistence_n in_o the_o abstract_n without_o three_o that_o subsist_v or_o of_o one_o single_a nature_n which_o have_v three_o subsistence_n when_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o in_o singularity_n there_o can_v be_v more_o than_o one_o subsistence_n etc._n etc._n i_o believe_v he_o will_v find_v no_o small_a difficulty_n to_o name_v what_o it_o be_v that_o with_o the_o peculiar_a distinct_a manner_n of_o subsistence_n make_v a_o person_n not_o the_o very_a same_o common_a nature_n for_o the_o person_n can_v not_o be_v distinguish_v from_o each_o other_o by_o that_o which_o be_v common_a to_o they_o all_o therefore_o the_o divine_a nature_n which_o be_v common_a to_o the_o three_o must_v according_a to_o he_o comprehend_v three_o single_a nature_n and_o not_o be_v absolute_o simple_a hither_o must_v be_v his_o resort_n at_o last_o after_o all_o his_o earnest_a disputation_n against_o it_o and_o these_o he_o will_v have_v to_o be_v part_n which_o because_o they_o be_v undivided_a impartible_a inseparable_a everlasting_o and_o necessary_o unite_v i_o do_v reckon_v the_o enquirer_n do_v with_o very_o sufficient_a reason_n and_o with_o just_a decency_n and_o do_v still_o continue_v very_o peremptory_o to_o deny_v and_o whereas_o he_o contend_v that_o the_o whole_a divine_a nature_n be_v entire_o in_o each_o subsistence_n as_o he_o do_v again_o and_o again_o i_o think_v the_o term_n whole_a improper_a where_o there_o be_v no_o proper_a part_n and_o i_o doubt_v not_o when_o he_o give_v place_n to_o cool_a thought_n he_o will_v see_v cause_n to_o qualify_v that_o assertion_n for_o if_o he_o strict_o mean_v that_o every_o thing_n that_o belong_v to_o the_o godhead_n be_v in_o each_o person_n i_o see_v not_o how_o he_o will_v fetch_v himself_o from_o the_o socinian_n consequence_n that_o then_o each_o person_n must_v have_v a_o trinity_n subsist_v in_o it_o and_o be_v father_n son_n and_o h._n ghost_n for_o i_o doubt_v not_o he_o will_v acknowledge_v that_o the_o entire_a divinity_n include_v in_o it_o the_o father_n son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n and_o therefore_o he_o must_v be_v behold_v to_o a_o inadequate_a notion_n in_o this_o very_a case_n when_o all_o be_v do_v how_o much_o soever_o he_o have_v contend_v against_o it_o i_o do_v however_o think_v it_o safe_a and_o free_a from_o any_o other_o difficulty_n than_o we_o unavoidable_o have_v in_o conceive_v infinite_n to_o say_v that_o all_o perfection_n be_v in_o each_o subsistent_n which_o i_o like_v better_o than_o subsistence_n as_o more_o expressive_a of_o the_o concrete_a as_o far_o as_o their_o natural_a necessary_a eternal_a order_n towards_o one_o another_o as_o the_o first_o be_v the_o fountain_n or_o radix_fw-la the_o second_o
