the_o vindication_n of_o his_o leviathan_n 91._o he_o say_v that_o his_o doctrine_n be_v that_o the_o soul_n be_v not_o a_o separate_a substance_n but_o that_o the_o man_n at_o his_o resurrection_n shall_v be_v revive_v and_o he_o answer_v that_o place_n fear_v not_o they_o which_o kill_v the_o body_n but_o can_v kill_v the_o soul_n thus_o man_n can_v kill_v a_o soul_n for_o the_o man_n kill_v shall_v revive_v again_o i_o think_v he_o may_v as_o well_o have_v say_v that_o man_n can_v kill_v the_o body_n for_o that_o shall_v be_v revive_v at_o the_o resurrection_n but_o what_o be_v all_o this_o to_o you_o i_o hope_v nothing_o at_o all_o but_o it_o show_v that_o those_o who_o have_v go_v about_o to_o overthrow_v the_o immortality_n of_o the_o soul_n by_o nature_n have_v not_o be_v think_v to_o secure_v the_o great_a end_n of_o religion_n and_o morality_n and_o although_o we_o think_v the_o separate_a state_n of_o the_o soul_n after_o death_n be_v sufficient_o reveal_v in_o scripture_n yet_o it_o create_v a_o great_a difficulty_n in_o understand_v it_o if_o the_o soul_n be_v nothing_o but_o life_n or_o a_o material_a substance_n which_o must_v be_v dissolve_v when_o life_n be_v end_v for_o if_o the_o soul_n be_v a_o material_a substance_n it_o must_v be_v make_v up_o as_o other_o be_v of_o the_o cohesion_n of_o solid_a and_o separate_a part_n how_o minute_n and_o invisible_a soever_o they_o be_v and_o what_o be_v it_o which_o shall_v keep_v they_o together_o when_o life_n be_v go_v so_o that_o it_o be_v no_o easy_a matter_n to_o give_v a_o account_n how_o the_o soul_n shall_v be_v capable_a of_o immortality_n unless_o it_o be_v a_o immaterial_a substance_n and_o then_o we_o know_v the_o solution_n of_o the_o texture_n of_o body_n can_v reach_v the_o soul_n be_v of_o a_o different_a nature_n and_o this_o be_v no_o more_o than_o what_o the_o wise_a and_o most_o intelligent_a philosopher_n have_v assert_v mere_o from_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o nature_n and_o property_n of_o the_o soul_n as_o you_o very_o well_o know_v and_o i_o need_v not_o for_o your_o sake_n run_v into_o such_o a_o digression_n or_o as_o you_o call_v it_o step_v

say_v that_o he_o oppose_v corpus_n to_o ignis_fw-la and_o anima_fw-la i._n e._n breath_n and_o that_o the_o foundation_n of_o his_o distinction_n of_o the_o soul_n from_o the_o body_n be_v because_o it_o be_v so_o subtle_a as_o to_o be_v out_o of_o sight_n it_o be_v a_o very_a easy_a matter_n to_o multiply_v citation_n out_o of_o cicero_n where_o spiritus_fw-la and_o anima_fw-la be_v both_o

dispute_v he_o take_v animus_fw-la for_o the_o soul_n and_o neither_o anima_fw-la nor_o spiritus_fw-la and_o he_o tell_v we_o there_o be_v two_o opinion_n about_o it_o at_o death_n some_o hold_v a_o

the_o several_a opinion_n he_o set_v down_o at_o large_a ch._n 9_o 10._o and_o then_o ch._n 11._o he_o sum_n up_o the_o different_a opinion_n and_o say_v he_o if_o it_o be_v the_o heart_n or_o blood_n or_o brain_n because_o it_o be_v a_o body_n it_o will_v be_v extinguish_v with_o it_o if_o it_o be_v anima_fw-la the_o vital_a breath_n it_o will_v be_v dissipate_v if_o it_o be_v fire_n it_o will_v be_v extinguish_v it_o be_v true_a he_o distinguish_v here_o the_o vital_a breath_n from_o the_o body_n and_o no_o one_o question_n such_o a_o distinction_n of_o the_o animal_n and_o vital_a spirit_n from_o the_o grosser_n part_n of_o the_o body_n but_o all_o this_o proceed_v upon_o the_o supposition_n of_o those_o who_o hold_v nothing_o to_o survive_v after_o death_n but_o then_o he_o go_v on_o to_o those_o who_o hold_v the_o soul_n when_o they_o be_v go_v out_o of_o their_o body_n to_o go_v to_o heaven_n as_o their_o proper_a habitation_n and_o here_o he_o plain_o suppose_v the_o soul_n not_o to_o be_v a_o fine_a sort_n of_o body_n but_o of_o a_o different_a nature_n from_o the_o body_n which_o it_o leave_v nam_fw-la corpus_fw-la quidem_fw-la say_v he_o quasi_fw-la vas_fw-la

these_o man_n look_v on_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n as_o mere_a modification_n of_o matter_n 2._o he_o urge_v the_o general_a consent_n of_o nation_n for_o the_o permanency_n of_o soul_n after_o death_n

to_o prove_v but_o i_o shall_v not_o here_o go_v out_o of_o my_o way_n to_o do_v it_o 3._o the_o most_o ancient_a philosopher_n of_o greece_n hold_v the_o same_o opinion_n as_o he_o show_v from_o

22_o 23._o 4._o that_o the_o body_n and_o soul_n of_o man_n have_v a_o different_a frame_n and_o original_a our_o body_n he_o say_v c._n 19_o be_v make_v of_o terrestrial_a principle_n but_o the_o soul_n he_o say_v be_v of_o a_o divine_a original_a and_o if_o we_o can_v give_v a_o account_n how_o they_o be_v make_v we_o shall_v likewise_o how_o they_o be_v dissolve_v c._n 14._o as_o we_o may_v of_o the_o part_n and_o contexture_n of_o body_n but_o say_v he_o animorum_fw-la nulla_fw-la in_o terris_fw-la origo_fw-la inveniri_fw-la potest_fw-la nihil_fw-la est_fw-la enim_fw-la in_o

plain_o make_v a_o difference_n between_o our_o bodily_a substance_n and_o that_o of_o our_o soul_n which_o have_v no_o bodily_a texture_n and_o composition_n because_o there_o be_v no_o material_a

this_o may_v give_v you_o satisfaction_n as_o to_o cicero_n how_o far_o he_o be_v from_o make_v the_o soul_n a_o material_a substance_n and_o the_o only_a place_n you_o produce_v out_o of_o he_o c._n 22._o prove_v nothing_o but_o that_o the_o soul_n be_v invisible_a as_o you_o may_v see_v by_o look_v upon_o it_o again_o as_o to_o virgil_n you_o quote_v that_o expression_n dum_fw-la spiritus_fw-la

i_o do_v not_o see_v what_o foundation_n there_o be_v in_o nature_n for_o a_o day_n of_o judgement_n for_o where_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o matter_n there_o be_v no_o freedom_n of_o act_v where_o
