you_o have_v but_o as_o i_o say_v before_o this_o example_n fit_v entire_o no_o more_o than_o the_o other_o do_v in_o such_o abstract_a speculation_n where_o we_o must_v consider_v matter_n without_o form_n which_o have_v no_o actual_a being_n we_o must_v not_o expect_v adequate_v example_n in_o nature_n but_o enough_o be_v say_v to_o make_v a_o speculative_a man_n see_v that_o if_o god_n shall_v join_v the_o soul_n of_o a_o late_o dead_a man_n even_o while_o his_o dead_a corpse_n shall_v lie_v entire_a in_o his_o wind_a sheet_n here_o unto_o a_o body_n make_v of_o earth_n take_v from_o foam_n mountain_n in_o america_n it_o be_v most_o true_a and_o certain_a that_o the_o body_n he_o shall_v then_o live_v by_o be_v the_o same_o identical_a body_n he_o live_v with_o before_o his_o death_n and_o late_a resurrection_n it_o be_v evident_a that_o sameness_n thisness_n and_o thatness_n belong_v not_o to_o matter_n by_o itself_o for_o a_o general_a indifference_n run_v through_o it_o all_o but_o only_o as_o it_o be_v distinguish_v and_o individuate_v by_o the_o form_n which_o in_o our_o case_n whensoever_o the_o same_o soul_n do_v it_o must_v be_v understand_v always_o to_o be_v the_o same_o matter_n and_o body_n this_o point_n thus_o pass_v over_o i_o may_v piece_v to_o it_o what_o our_o author_n say_v of_o a_o magazine_n of_o subsistent_a form_n reside_v first_o in_o the_o chaos_n and_o hereafter_o when_o the_o world_n shall_v have_v be_v destroy_v by_o fire_n in_o the_o general_a heap_n of_o ash_n out_o of_o which_o god_n voice_n do_v and_o shall_v draw_v they_o out_o and_o clothe_v they_o with_o matter_n this_o language_n be_v handsome_a for_o a_o poet_n or_o a_o rhetorician_n to_o speak_v but_o in_o a_o philosopher_n that_o shall_v ratiocinate_v strict_o and_o rigorous_o i_o can_v not_o admit_v it_o for_o certain_o there_o be_v no_o subsistent_a form_n of_o corporeal_a thing_n except_v the_o soul_n of_o man_n which_o beside_o be_v a_o inform_a form_n have_v another_o particular_a consideration_n belong_v to_o it_o too_o long_o to_o speak_v of_o here_o but_o whensoever_o that_o compound_n be_v destroy_v the_o form_n perish_v with_o the_o whole_a and_o for_o the_o natural_a production_n of_o corporeal_a thing_n i_o conceive_v it_o to_o be_v wrought_v out_o by_o the_o action_n and_o passion_n of_o the_o element_n among_o themselves_o which_o introduce_v new_a temper_n and_o disposition_n into_o the_o body_n where_o these_o conflict_n pass_v new_a form_n succeed_v old_a one_o when_o the_o disposition_n be_v raise_v to_o such_o a_o height_n as_o can_v no_o long_o consist_v with_o the_o precede_a form_n and_o be_v in_o the_o immediate_a degree_n to_o fit_v the_o succeed_a one_o which_o they_o usher_v in_o the_o mystery_n of_o all_o which_o i_o have_v at_o large_a unfold_v in_o my_o above_o mention_a treatise_n of_o the_o immortality_n of_o the_o soul_n i_o shall_v say_v no_o more_o to_o the_o first_o part_n of_o our_o

it_o will_v save_v they_o the_o labour_n and_o end_v their_o work_n of_o tempt_a mankind_n to_o mischief_n and_o evil_a for_o whatsoever_o their_o moral_a design_n and_o success_n be_v in_o it_o their_o nature_n impell_v they_o to_o be_v always_o do_v it_o for_o on_o the_o one_o side_n it_o be_v active_a in_o the_o high_a degree_n as_o be_v pure_a act_n that_o be_v spirit_n so_o on_o the_o other_o side_n they_o be_v malign_a in_o as_o great_a a_o excess_n by_o the_o one_o they_o must_v be_v always_o work_v wheresoever_o they_o may_v work_v like_o water_n in_o a_o vessel_n full_a of_o hole_n that_o will_v run_v out_o of_o every_o one_o of_o they_o which_o be_v not_o stop_v by_o the_o other_o their_o whole_a work_n must_v be_v malicious_a and_o mischievous_a join_v then_o both_o these_o quality_n together_o it_o be_v evident_a they_o will_v always_o be_v tempt_a mankind_n though_o they_o know_v they_o shall_v be_v frustrate_a of_o their_o moral_a end_n but_o be_v it_o not_o time_n that_o i_o make_v a_o end_n yes_o it_o be_v more_o than_o time_n and_o therefore_o have_v once_o pass_v the_o limit_n that_o confine_v what_o be_v become_v the_o next_o step_n carry_v i_o into_o the_o ocean_n of_o error_n which_o be_v infinite_a and_o therefore_o more_o or_o less_o bear_v no_o proportion_n in_o it_o i_o will_v proceed_v a_o little_a further_o to_o take_v a_o short_a survey_n of_o his_o second_o part_n and_o hope_v for_o as_o easy_a pardon_n after_o this_o addition_n to_o my_o sudden_a and_o indigested_a remarke_n as_o if_o i_o have_v close_v they_o up_o now_o methinks_v he_o begin_v with_o somewhat_o a_o affect_a discourse_n to_o prove_v his_o natural_a inclination_n to_o charity_n which_o virtue_n be_v the_o intend_a theme_n of_o all_o the_o remainder_n of_o his_o discourse_n and_o i_o doubt_v he_o mistake_v the_o low_a orb_n or_o lembe_n of_o that_o high_a seraphic_a virtue_n for_o the_o top_n and_o perfection_n of_o it_o and_o make_v a_o kind_n of_o human_a compassion_n to_o be_v divine_a charity_n he_o will_v have_v it_o to_o be_v a_o general_a way_n of_o do_v good_a it_o be_v true_a he_o add_v then_o for_o god_n sake_n but_o he_o allay_v that_o again_o with_o say_v he_o will_v have_v that_o good_a do_v as_o by_o obedience_n and_o to_o accomplish_v god_n will_n and_o look_v at_o the_o effect_n it_o work_v upon_o our_o soul_n but_o in_o a_o narrow_a compass_n like_o one_o in_o the_o vulgar_a throng_n that_o consider_v god_n as_o a_o judge_n and_o as_o a_o rewarder_n or_o a_o punisher_n whereas_o perfect_a charity_n be_v that_o vehement_a love_n of_o god_n for_o his_o own_o sake_n for_o his_o goodness_n for_o his_o beauty_n for_o his_o excellency_n that_o carry_v all_o the_o motion_n of_o our_o soul_n direct_o and_o violent_o to_o he_o and_o make_v a_o man_n difdaine_a or_o rather_o hate_v all_o obstacle_n that_o may_v retard_v his_o journey_n to_o he_o and_o that_o face_n of_o it_o that_o look_v towards_o mankind_n with_o who_o we_o live_v and_o warm_v we_o to_o do_v other_o good_a be_v but_o like_o the_o overflow_n of_o the_o main_a stream_n that_o swell_v above_o its_o bank_n run_v over_o in_o a_o multitude_n of_o little_a channel_n i_o be_o not_o satisfy_v that_o in_o the_o likeness_n which_o he_o put_v between_o god_n and_o man_n he_o make_v the_o difference_n between_o they_o to_o be_v but_o such_o as_o between_o two_o creature_n that_o resemble_v one_o another_o for_o between_o these_o there_o be_v some_o proportion_n but_o between_o the_o other_o none_o at_o all_o in_o the_o examine_n of_o which_o discourse_n wherein_o the_o author_n observe_v that_o no_o two_o face_n be_v ever_o see_v to_o be_v perfect_o alike_o nay_o no_o two_o picture_n of_o the_o same_o face_n be_v ever_o exact_o make_v so_o i_o can_v take_v occasion_n to_o insert_v a_o subtle_a and_o delightful_a demonstration_n of_o mr._n white_n wherein_o he_o show_v how_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o two_o body_n for_o example_n two_o boules_n shall_v ever_o be_v make_v exact_o like_o one_o another_o nay_o not_o rigorous_o equal_a in_o any_o one_o accident_n as_o namely_o in_o weight_n but_o that_o still_o there_o will_v be_v some_o little_a difference_n and_o inequality_n between_o they_o the_o reason_n of_o which_o observation_n our_o author_n meddle_v not_o with_o be_v it_o not_o that_o i_o have_v be_v so_o long_o already_o as_o digression_n be_v now_o very_o unseasonable_a shall_v i_o commend_v or_o censure_v our_o author_n for_o believe_v so_o well_o of_o his_o acquire_a knowledge_n as_o to_o

and_o gallant_a prince_n who_o out_o of_o the_o generousness_n and_o nobleness_n of_o their_o nature_n do_v patronize_v art_n and_o learned_a man_n to_o impute_v their_o so_o do_v to_o vanity_n of_o

produce_v epictetus_n to_o contradict_v he_o when_o he_o let_v his_o kindness_n engulfe_n he_o in_o deep_a affliction_n for_o a_o friend_n for_o he_o will_v not_o allow_v his_o wise_a man_n to_o have_v a_o inward_a relent_a a_o trouble_a feeling_n or_o compassion_n of_o another_o misfortune_n that_o disorder_v the_o one_o without_o any_o good_a to_o the_o other_o let_v he_o afford_v all_o

augustine_n retract_v so_o severe_o his_o pathetical_a expression_n for_o the_o death_n of_o his_o friend_n say_v they_o favour_v more_o of_o the_o rhetorical_a declamation_n of_o a_o young_a orator_n then_o of_o the_o grave_a confession_n of_o a_o devout_a christian_n or_o somewhat_o to_o that_o purpose_n what_o censure_n upon_o himself_o may_v we_o expect_v of_o our_o physician_n if_o ever_o he_o make_v any_o retractation_n of_o this_o discourse_n concerning_o his_o religion_n it_o be_v no_o small_a misfortune_n to_o he_o that_o after_o so_o much_o time_n spend_v and_o so_o many_o place_n
