hell_n there_o to_o be_v reward_v or_o punish_v at_o least_o till_o the_o resurrection_n and_o i_o suppose_v at_o long_a too_o unless_o it_o can_v be_v another_o person_n when_o reunited_a to_o the_o body_n as_o well_o as_o when_o separate_v from_o it_o for_o what_o that_o other_o person_n have_v do_v well_o or_o ill_o upon_o earth_n well_o let_v this_o be_v as_o absurd_a as_o it_o will_v the_o animadverter_n must_v say_v it_o or_o say_v something_o as_o absurd_a unless_o he_o will_v allow_v a_o soul_n in_o a_o state_n of_o separation_n to_o be_v the_o same_o person_n that_o it_o be_v in_o the_o body_n or_o deny_v the_o intermediate_v reward_n and_o punishment_n of_o good_a and_o bad_a man_n till_o the_o resurrection_n for_o if_o the_o soul_n be_v a_o person_n and_o not_o the_o same_o than_o one_o person_n sin_n and_o another_o suffer_v if_o a_o man_n be_v a_o person_n and_o the_o soul_n no_o person_n than_o the_o person_n sin_n and_o that_o which_o be_v no_o person_n suffer_v if_o a_o man_n be_v a_o whole_a person_n and_o the_o soul_n only_a part_n of_o the_o person_n than_o the_o whole_a sin_n and_o a_o part_n suffer_v for_o the_o whole_a let_v he_o choose_v which_o he_o think_v look_v most_o agreeable_a to_o the_o principle_n of_o reason_n and_o divinity_n but_o do_v this_o profound_a philosopher_n indeed_o think_v that_o the_o body_n either_o sin_n or_o suffer_v the_o soul_n sin_n in_o and_o by_o the_o body_n and_o feel_v pain_n or_o pleasure_n from_o bodily_a impression_n and_o therefore_o as_o the_o body_n may_v be_v make_v the_o instrument_n of_o virtue_n or_o vice_n so_o it_o may_v be_v the_o instrument_n of_o reward_n and_o punishment_n but_o virtue_n or_o vice_n be_v seat_v only_o in_o the_o soul_n and_o it_o be_v the_o soul_n only_o that_o can_v be_v happy_a or_o miserable_a reward_v or_o punish_v in_o or_o out_o of_o the_o body_n and_o therefore_o there_o be_v no_o danger_n that_o one_o shall_v sin_v and_o another_o suffer_v though_o the_o soul_n sin_n in_o the_o body_n and_o suffer_v out_o of_o it_o but_o it_o be_v worth_a observe_n how_o notable_o he_o wind_v up_o his_o argument_n if_o it_o be_v intolerable_o absurd_a as_o no_o doubt_n it_o be_v that_o the_o soul_n in_o the_o other_o world_n shall_v not_o be_v responsible_a for_o what_o the_o man_n himself_o in_o person_n have_v do_v in_o this_o what_o then_o one_o will_v expect_v the_o conclusion_n shall_v be_v than_o the_o soul_n be_v the_o man_n himself_o in_o person_n but_o this_o he_o dare_v not_o say_v because_o it_o be_v to_o un-say_a all_o he_o have_v say_v and_o he_o dare_v not_o say_v the_o contrary_a for_o that_o be_v the_o absurdity_n he_o be_v expose_v that_o one_o who_o be_v not_o the_o man_n himself_o shall_v suffer_v for_o what_o the_o man_n himself_o do_v and_o therefore_o he_o let_v they_o both_o slip_n and_o be_v very_o glad_a to_o get_v rid_v of_o they_o and_o conclude_v safe_o then_o it_o be_v altogether_o as_o absurd_a and_o intolerable_a for_o any_o one_o to_o represent_v and_o speak_v of_o these_o thing_n under_o such_o term_n and_o notion_n as_o must_v necessary_o throw_v all_o discourse_n and_o reason_v about_o they_o into_o paradox_n and_o confusion_n which_o be_v to_o bilk_v a_o conclusion_n and_o to_o pay_v a_o reckon_n by_o run_v out_o at_o the_o backdoor_n he_o add_v and_o indeed_o to_o i_o the_o soul_n be_v thus_o change_v its_o state_n forward_o and_o backward_o from_o one_o manner_n of_o subsist_v to_o another_o look_v very_o odd_a and_o unnatural_a what_o do_v he_o mean_v by_o this_o that_o it_o be_v odd_a and_o unnatural_a that_o the_o soul_n shall_v live_v in_o the_o body_n and_o out_o of_o the_o body_n and_o then_o return_v into_o the_o body_n again_o and_o be_v not_o this_o so_o do_v not_o the_o soul_n first_o live_v in_o the_o body_n and_o after_o what_o we_o call_v death_n live_v out_o of_o the_o body_n and_o shall_v it_o not_o be_v reunite_v to_o the_o body_n again_o at_o the_o resurrection_n and_o how_o do_v this_o change_n the_o soul_n manner_n of_o subsist_v any_o more_o than_o the_o body_n change_v its_o manner_n of_o subsist_v when_o it_o be_v naked_a and_o clothe_v to_o live_v in_o the_o body_n and_o out_o of_o the_o body_n be_v two_o different_a state_n of_o life_n but_o the_o soul_n subsist_v still_o in_o the_o same_o manner_n for_o it_o owe_v not_o its_o subsistence_n to_o the_o body_n and_o can_v neither_o subsist_v more_o nor_o less_o in_o or_o out_o of_o the_o body_n for_o i_o know_v no_o degree_n of_o subsistence_n in_o the_o soul_n though_o there_o be_v of_o life_n and_o action_n what_o be_v be_v and_o what_o subsist_v continue_v to_o be_v but_o that_o which_o be_v so_o odd_a and_o unnatural_a be_v that_o from_o a_o incomplete_a state_n in_o the_o body_n it_o shall_v pass_v to_o a_o personal_a and_o complete_a state_n out_o of_o the_o body_n which_o state_n be_v yet_o preternatural_a to_o it_o and_o then_o fall_v back_o into_o a_o incomplete_a state_n again_o by_o its_o reunion_n to_o the_o body_n at_o the_o resurrection_n which_o yet_o one_o will_v think_v shall_v rather_o improve_v our_o principal_a part_n in_o all_o respect_n not_o mere_o relate_v to_o the_o animal_n life_n as_o the_o bare_a subsistence_n of_o they_o i_o be_o sure_a do_v not_o it_o be_v hard_o to_o guess_v the_o meaning_n of_o such_o gypsie-cant_n and_o therefore_o i_o hope_v you_o and_o he_o will_v pardon_v i_o if_o i_o mistake_v for_o i_o will_v do_v my_o best_a by_o the_o soul_n be_v incomplete_a state_n in_o the_o body_n i_o suppose_v he_o mean_v that_o the_o soul_n in_o the_o body_n be_v a_o incomplete_a person_n and_o by_o the_o personal_a complete_a state_n out_o of_o the_o body_n that_o the_o soul_n be_v a_o complete_a person_n out_o of_o the_o body_n this_o indeed_o sound_v somewhat_o odd_a and_o unnatural_a but_o do_v he_o know_v any_o man_n who_o say_v that_o the_o soul_n be_v a_o incomplete_a person_n in_o the_o body_n and_o a_o complete_a person_n out_o of_o the_o body_n or_o who_o call_v this_o the_o incomplete_a and_o the_o complete_a state_n of_o the_o soul_n those_o who_o affirm_v the_o soul_n to_o be_v the_o person_n say_v that_o it_o be_v the_o same_o person_n in_o the_o body_n and_o out_o of_o it_o but_o that_o it_o live_v in_o different_a state_n in_o the_o body_n and_o out_o of_o it_o and_o that_o its_o state_n in_o this_o mortal_a body_n be_v the_o most_o imperfect_a state_n a_o reasonable_a soul_n can_v live_v in_o that_o the_o state_n of_o the_o soul_n in_o separation_n from_o the_o body_n be_v to_o good_a man_n a_o more_o perfect_a and_o complete_a because_o a_o more_o happy_a state_n and_o therefore_o not_o preternatural_a which_o can_v never_o be_v a_o more_o happy_a state_n and_o that_o the_o reunion_n of_o the_o soul_n to_o a_o immortal_a spiritual_a body_n at_o the_o resurrection_n be_v the_o most_o complete_a and_o perfect_a state_n of_o all_o so_o that_o here_o be_v no_o such_o unnatural_a change_n as_o he_o dream_v of_o from_o a_o incomplete_a to_o a_o complete_a preternatural_a state_n which_o be_v nonsense_n and_o then_o back_o again_o to_o a_o incomplete_a state_n at_o the_o resurrection_n which_o so_o turn_v his_o own_o stomach_n though_o not_o very_o squeamish_a that_o he_o be_v glad_a to_o qualify_v it_o with_o a_o parenthesis_n which_o i_o defy_v any_o man_n to_o make_v sense_n of_o but_o the_o natural_a progress_n of_o the_o soul_n in_o this_o lapse_v state_n be_v from_o a_o less_o perfect_a to_o a_o more_o perfect_a and_o from_o that_o to_o the_o most_o perfect_a state_n of_o life_n which_o to_o i_o be_v proof_n enough_o that_o the_o soul_n be_v the_o person_n and_o fit_v by_o nature_n to_o live_v in_o all_o these_o different_a state_n or_o it_o be_v impossible_a to_o prove_v peter_n or_o john_n to_o be_v the_o same_o man_n in_o these_o different_a state_n at_o length_n the_o animadverter_n grow_v sensible_a 48._o that_o it_o sound_v very_o absurd_o to_o say_v that_o the_o soul_n in_o a_o state_n of_o separation_n be_v but_o part_n of_o the_o person_n when_o it_o subsist_v by_o itself_o not_o in_o any_o compound_v and_o feel_v itself_o to_o be_v the_o same_o and_o life_n and_o act_n in_o a_o more_o perfect_a and_o happy_a state_n than_o when_o it_o live_v in_o a_o mortal_a body_n and_o therefore_o he_o fence_n against_o these_o two_o objection_n which_o be_v strong_a when_o they_o be_v put_v into_o one_o as_o well_o as_o he_o can_v he_o say_v the_o soul_n in_o a_o state_n of_o separation_n be_v but_o part_n of_o the_o person_n the_o whole_a of_o which_o be_v a_o compound_n of_o soul_n and_o body_n because_o of_o its_o essential_a relation_n to_o a_o compound_v but_o what_o be_v
