indeed_o can_v be_v in_o simple_a and_o spiritual_a substance_n of_o the_o same_o species_n or_o kind_n it_o must_v needs_o derive_v whole_o from_o the_o body_n from_o its_o accident_n and_o circumstance_n from_o whence_o it_o follow_v that_o because_o the_o body_n cast_v fetters_o and_o restraint_n hindrance_n and_o impediment_n upon_o the_o soul_n that_o the_o soul_n be_v much_o free_a in_o the_o state_n of_o separation_n and_o if_o it_o have_v any_o act_n of_o life_n it_o be_v much_o more_o noble_a and_o expedite_a that_o the_o soul_n be_v alive_a after_o our_o death_n s._n paul_n affirm_v christ_n die_v for_o we_o that_o whether_o we_o wake_v or_o sleep_v 5.10_o we_o shall_v live_v together_o with_o he_o now_o it_o be_v strange_a that_o we_o shall_v be_v alive_a and_o live_v with_o christ_n and_o yet_o do_v no_o act_n of_o life_n the_o body_n when_o it_o be_v asleep_o do_v many_o and_o if_o the_o soul_n do_v none_o the_o principle_n be_v less_o active_a than_o the_o instrument_n but_o if_o it_o do_v any_o act_n at_o all_o in_o separation_n it_o must_v necessary_o be_v a_o act_n or_o effect_n of_o understanding_n there_o be_v nothing_o else_o it_o can_v do_v but_o this_o it_o can_v for_o it_o be_v but_o a_o weak_a and_o a_o unlearned_a proposition_n to_o say_v that_o the_o soul_n can_v do_v nothing_o of_o itself_o nothing_o without_o the_o phantasm_n and_o provision_n of_o the_o body_n for_o 1._o in_o this_o life_n the_o soul_n have_v one_o principle_n clear_o separate_v abstract_a and_o immaterial_a i_o mean_v the_o spirit_n of_o grace_n which_o be_v a_o principle_n of_o life_n and_o action_n and_o in_o many_o instance_n do_v not_o at_o all_o communicate_v with_o matter_n as_o in_o the_o infusion_n superinduction_n and_o the_o creation_n of_o spiritual_a grace_n 2._o as_o nutrition_n generation_n eat_v and_o drink_v be_v action_n proper_a to_o the_o body_n and_o its_o state_n so_o ecstasy_n vision_n rapture_n intuitive_a knowledge_n and_o consideration_n of_o its_o self_n act_n of_o volition_n and_o reflex_n act_v of_o understanding_n be_v proper_a to_o the_o soul_n 3._o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v observable_a that_o s._n paul_n say_v that_o he_o know_v not_o whether_o his_o vision_n and_o rapture_n be_v in_o or_o out_o of_o the_o body_n for_o by_o that_o we_o see_v his_o judgement_n of_o the_o thing_n that_o one_o be_v as_o likely_a as_o the_o other_o neither_o of_o they_o impossible_a or_o unreasonable_a and_o therefore_o that_o the_o soul_n be_v as_o capable_a of_o action_n alone_o as_o in_o conjunction_n 4_o if_o in_o the_o state_n of_o blessedness_n there_o be_v some_o action_n of_o the_o soul_n which_o do_v not_o pass_v through_o the_o body_n such_o as_o contemplation_n of_o god_n and_o converse_v with_o spirit_n and_o receive_v those_o influence_n and_o rare_a immission_n which_o come_v from_o the_o h._n and_o mysterious_a trinity_n make_v up_o the_o crown_n of_o glory_n it_o follow_v that_o the_o necessity_n of_o the_o body_n ministry_n be_v but_o during_o the_o state_n of_o this_o life_n and_o as_o long_o as_o it_o converse_v with_o fire_n and_o water_n and_o life_n with_o corn_n and_o flesh_n and_o be_v feed_v by_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o material_a appetite_n which_o necessity_n and_o manner_n of_o conversation_n when_o it_o cease_v it_o can_v be_v no_o long_o necessary_a for_o the_o soul_n to_o be_v serve_v by_o phantasm_n and_o material_a representation_n 5._o and_o therefore_o when_o the_o body_n shall_v be_v reunite_v it_o shall_v be_v so_o order_v that_o then_o the_o body_n shall_v confess_v it_o give_v not_o any_o thing_n but_o receive_v all_o its_o be_v and_o operation_n its_o manner_n and_o abode_n from_o the_o soul_n and_o that_o then_o it_o come_v not_o to_o serve_v a_o necessity_n but_o to_o partake_v a_o glory_n for_o as_o the_o operation_n of_o the_o soul_n in_o this_o life_n begin_v in_o the_o body_n and_o by_o it_o the_o object_n be_v transmit_v to_o the_o soul_n so_o than_o they_o shall_v begin_v in_o the_o soul_n and_o pass_v to_o the_o body_n and_o as_o the_o operation_n of_o the_o soul_n by_o reason_n of_o its_o dependence_n on_o the_o body_n be_v animal_n natural_a and_o material_a so_o in_o the_o resurrection_n the_o body_n shall_v be_v spiritual_a by_o reason_n of_o the_o pre-eminence_n influence_n and_o prime_a operation_n of_o the_o soul_n now_o between_o these_o two_o state_n stand_v the_o state_n of_o separation_n in_o which_o the_o operation_n of_o the_o soul_n be_v of_o a_o middle_a nature_n that_o be_v not_o so_o spiritual_a as_o in_o the_o resurrection_n and_o not_o so_o animal_n and_o natural_a as_o in_o the_o state_n of_o conjunction_n to_o all_o which_o i_o add_v this_o consideration_n that_o our_o soul_n have_v the_o same_o condition_n that_o christ_n soul_n have_v in_o the_o state_n of_o separation_n because_o he_o take_v on_o he_o all_o our_o nature_n and_o all_o our_o condition_n and_o it_o be_v certain_a christ_n soul_n in_o the_o three_o day_n of_o his_o separation_n do_v exercise_v act_n of_o life_n of_o joy_n and_o triumph_n and_o do_v not_o sleep_v but_o visit_v the_o soul_n of_o the_o father_n trample_v upon_o the_o pride_n of_o devil_n and_o satisfy_v those_o long_a soul_n which_o be_v prisoner_n of_o hope_n and_o from_o all_o this_o we_o may_v conclude_v that_o the_o soul_n of_o all_o the_o servant_n of_o christ_n be_v alive_a and_o therefore_o do_v the_o action_n of_o life_n and_o proper_a to_o their_o state_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v high_o probable_a that_o the_o soul_n work_v clear_a and_o understand_v bright_a and_o discourse_n wise_a and_o rejoice_v loud_a and_o love_v noble_o and_o desire_v pure_a and_o hope_n strong_a than_o it_o can_v do_v here_o but_o if_o these_o argument_n shall_v fail_v yet_o the_o felicity_n of_o god_n saint_n can_v fail_v for_o suppose_v the_o body_n to_o be_v a_o necessary_a instrument_n but_o out_o of_o tune_n and_o discompose_v by_o sin_n and_o anger_n by_o accident_n and_o chance_n by_o defect_n and_o imperfection_n yet_o that_o it_o be_v better_a than_o none_o at_o all_o and_o that_o if_o the_o soul_n work_v imperfect_o with_o a_o imperfect_a body_n that_o then_o she_o work_v not_o at_o all_o when_o she_o have_v none_o and_o suppose_v also_o that_o the_o soul_n shall_v be_v as_o much_o without_o sense_n or_o perception_n in_o death_n as_o it_o be_v in_o a_o deep_a sleep_n which_o be_v the_o image_n and_o shadow_n of_o death_n yet_o than_o god_n devise_v other_o mean_n that_o his_o banish_a be_v not_o expel_v from_o he_o for_o 2_o god_n will_v restore_v the_o soul_n to_o the_o body_n and_o raise_v the_o body_n to_o such_o a_o perfection_n that_o it_o shall_v be_v a_o organ_n fit_a to_o praise_v he_o upon_o it_o shall_v be_v make_v spiritual_a to_o minister_v to_o the_o soul_n when_o the_o soul_n be_v turn_v into_o a_o spirit_n then_o the_o soul_n shall_v be_v bring_v forth_o by_o angel_n from_o her_o incomparable_a and_o easy_a bed_n from_o her_o rest_n in_o christ_n holy_a bosom_n and_o be_v make_v perfect_a in_o her_o be_v and_o in_o all_o her_o operation_n and_o this_o shall_v first_o appear_v by_o that_o perfection_n which_o the_o soul_n shall_v receive_v as_o instrumental_a to_o the_o last_o judgement_n for_o than_o she_o shall_v see_v clear_o all_o the_o record_n of_o this_o world_n all_o the_o register_n of_o her_o own_o memory_n for_o all_o that_o we_o do_v in_o this_o life_n be_v lay_v up_o in_o our_o memory_n and_o though_o dust_n and_o forgetfulness_n be_v draw_v upon_o they_o yet_o when_o god_n shall_v lift_v we_o from_o our_o dust_n then_o shall_v appear_v clear_o all_o that_o we_o have_v do_v write_v in_o the_o table_n of_o our_o conscience_n which_o be_v the_o soul_n memory_n we_o see_v many_o time_n and_o in_o many_o instance_n that_o a_o great_a memory_n be_v hinder_v and_o put_v out_o and_o we_o thirty_o year_n after_o come_v to_o think_v of_o

we_o bury_v our_o understanding_n in_o load_n of_o meat_n and_o surfeit_n and_o then_o we_o lie_v down_o upon_o our_o bed_n and_o roar_v with_o pain_n and_o disquietness_n of_o our_o soul_n nay_o we_o

to_o the_o eternal_a death_n of_o body_n and_o soul_n and_o therefore_o in_o the_o apostle_n creed_n there_o be_v no_o mention_n make_v of_o the_o resurrection_n of_o wicked_a person_n but_o of_o
