body_n and_o these_o remain_v when_o the_o body_n be_v in_o a_o swoon_n though_o they_o be_v secret_a and_o hide_a and_o neither_o feel_v by_o the_o body_n itself_o nor_o discern_v by_o the_o beholder_n other_o influence_n there_o be_v that_o tend_v to_o the_o perfection_n of_o life_n in_o the_o body_n as_o tend_v to_o motion_n and_o sense_n these_o be_v both_o sensible_a to_o themselves_o and_o visible_a in_o the_o effect_n of_o they_o to_o other_o now_o these_o latter_a influence_n of_o the_o soul_n into_o the_o body_n may_v be_v suspend_v when_o yet_o the_o other_o be_v continue_v so_o it_o be_v here_o they_o be_v but_o the_o sensible_a and_o arbitrary_a influence_n of_o the_o spirit_n that_o be_v suspend_v the_o necessary_a influence_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v yet_o continue_v four_o as_o it_o be_v the_o influence_n and_o not_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o spirit_n that_o be_v withdraw_v and_o as_o it_o be_v but_o some_o of_o the_o influence_n not_o the_o whole_a influence_n that_o be_v withdraw_v so_o fourthly_a this_o influence_n be_v but_o suspend_v it_o be_v not_o quite_o cut_v off_o and_o there_o be_v a_o great_a difference_n between_o these_o two_o if_o water_n be_v

otherwise_o the_o matter_n be_v irrecoverable_a poor_a soul_n because_o thou_o have_v not_o those_o influence_n fresh_a and_o lively_a from_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n that_o thou_o have_v have_v thou_o think_v the_o stream_n be_v quite_o cut_v off_o the_o heart_n of_o god_n thou_o think_v be_v quit_v turn_v away_o from_o thou_o alas_o thou_o be_v mistake_v it_o be_v only_o the_o pipe_n be_v

as_o a_o enemy_n to_o thou_o do_v not_o think_v that_o he_o will_v always_o do_v so_o when_o he_o have_v say_v plain_o he_o will_v not_o always_o chide_v 32._o psal_n 103.9_o isa_n 57.16_o i●am_fw-la
