how_o come_v in_o that_o distinction_n of_o holy_a spirit_n and_o of_o unclean_a spirit_n which_o be_v phrase_n often_o use_v answ_n before_o man_n reject_v the_o spirit_n his_o maker_n the_o spirit_n be_v his_o breath_n and_o life_n and_o he_o live_v in_o the_o spirit_n tread_v the_o object_n of_o the_o creation_n under_o his_o foot_n in_o comparison_n but_o after_o that_o man_n begin_v to_o look_v after_o the_o object_n of_o the_o earth_n delight_v himself_o to_o live_v upon_o or_o among_o fellow_n creature_n more_o than_o the_o spirit_n and_o so_o choose_v to_o himself_o another_o livelihood_n and_o protection_n than_o his_o master_n then_o his_o breath_n or_o power_n that_o guide_v he_o become_v mix_v and_o turn_v unclean_a qu._n unfold_v your_o meaning_n in_o this_o a_o little_a more_o answ_n the_o spirit_n make_v the_o flesh_n to_o be_v his_o house_n to_o dwell_v in_o and_o set_v man_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o creation_n as_o a_o lord_n to_o govern_v the_o creature_n which_o while_o he_o govern_v according_a to_o the_o light_n of_o his_o maker_n within_o he_o he_o do_v al●_z in_o righteousness_n but_o when_o he_o fall_v off_o and_o delight_v to_o follow_v the_o lust_n of_o his_o eye_n the_o lust_n of_o his_o heart_n and_o guidance_n of_o the_o flesh_n than_o he_o govern_v all_o in_o unrighteousness_n and_o so_o pull_v death_n and_o curse_n upon_o himself_o and_o upon_o the_o earth_n for_o the_o spirit_n that_o make_v all_o creature_n do_v know_v that_o man_n as_o he_o be_v flesh_n will_v be_v look_v after_o fellow_n creature_n and_o take_v delight_n in_o the_o creation_n more_o than_o in_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o creation_n who_o be_v his_o maker_n that_o dwell_v within_o and_o lie_v cover_v from_o the_o eye_n of_o flesh_n therefore_o reason_n the_o essential_a father_n give_v this_o law_n that_o in_o that_o day_n that_o man_n leave_v off_o to_o own_o his_o maker_n that_o dwell_v within_o he_o and_o to_o suck_v delight_n from_o the_o creation_n he_o shall_v then_o die_v or_o be_v cast_v into_o a_o condition_n to_o live_v below_o the_o spirit_n that_o be_v to_o live_v upon_o the_o creature_n and_o not_o upon_o the_o spirit_n and_o the_o spirit_n will_v suffer_v himself_o thus_o for_o a_o time_n to_o be_v tread_v under_o foot_n till_o the_o fullness_n of_o time_n come_v that_o he_o will_v rise_v up_o like_o seed_n of_o wheat_n from_o under_o those_o dark_a and_o heavy_a clod_n of_o fleshy_a earth_n and_o so_o himself_o the_o seed_n out_o of_o who_o all_o thing_n come_v will_v bruise_v the_o serpent_n head_n that_o powerful_a prove_v that_o be_v in_o flesh_n to_o look_v after_o object_n without_o he_o rather_o than_o into_o the_o spirit_n within_o he_o qu._n why_o then_o you_o seem_v to_o say_v that_o the_o law_n which_o reason_n give_v occasion_v man_n to_o fall_v answ_n very_o true_a for_o if_o there_o have_v be_v no_o law_n there_o have_v be_v no_o transgression_n if_o there_o have_v be_v no_o bind_v law_n of_o reason_n to_o require_v he_o to_o cleave_v only_o to_o his_o maker_n and_o to_o eye_n and_o own_v he_o principal_o then_o he_o have_v not_o do_v evil_a though_o he_o have_v place_v his_o delight_n in_o the_o object_n of_o the_o earth_n his_o fellow_n creature_n for_o note_v here_o it_o be_v one_o thing_n to_o live_v in_o and_o upon_o the_o spirit_n and_o another_o thing_n to_o fleight_v the_o spirit_n and_o to_o live_v in_o and_o upon_o the_o creation_n that_o come_v out_o or_o forth_o of_o the_o spirit_n qu._n i_o entreat_v you_o to_o tell_v i_o what_o you_o mean_v by_o the_o spirit_n answ_n the_o spirit_n be_v the_o alone_a being_n of_o himself_o that_o give_v a_o being_n to_o whatsoever_o we_o see_v and_o hear_v for_o whatsoever_o you_o see_v or_o hear_v be_v but_o the_o breathe_n forth_o or_o declaration_n of_o a_o infinite_a be_v that_o be_v before_o they_o as_o the_o word_n of_o a_o man_n mouth_n be_v the_o declaration_n of_o the_o spirit_n or_o power_n within_o and_o be_v create_v by_o the_o spirit_n and_o so_o hold_v forth_o as_o a_o creature_n to_o the_o creation_n and_o therefore_o the_o spirit_n be_v call_v the_o father_n the_o king_n the_o mighty_a god_n or_o governor_n jehovah_n elohim_fw-he the_o lord_n and_o the_o like_a now_o he_o be_v call_v the_o lord_n because_o he_o be_v the_o power_n that_o rule_v in_o and_o over_o the_o whole_a globe_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n for_o they_o be_v all_o govern_v by_o this_o one_o spirit_n qu._n but_o be_v death_n and_o darkness_n make_v by_o this_o one_o spirit_n likewise_o answ_n the_o one_o spirit_n make_v light_a and_o darkness_n as_o in_o the_o great_a body_n of_o night_n and_o day_n so_o in_o the_o little_a body_n man_n for_o that_o power_n of_o darkness_n that_o dwell_v in_o human_a flesh_n and_o which_o lead_v the_o creature_n captive_a into_o complain_n and_o sorrow_n be_v make_v by_o the_o spirit_n by_o these_o word_n in_o the_o day_n that_o thou_o eat_v thereof_o thou_o shall_v die_v as_o well_o as_o he_o make_v that_o power_n of_o light_n liberty_n and_o life_n by_o those_o word_n live_v yea_o i_o say_v live_v qu._n i_o pray_v explain_v this_o a_o little_a more_o an._n after_o the_o spirit_n have_v make_v the_o creation_n and_o mankind_n to_o govern_v it_o now_o reason_n will_v manifest_v himself_o to_o this_o creation_n by_o the_o work_n of_o his_o own_o hand_n therefore_o let_v any_o man_n stand_v alone_o to_o the_o law_n of_o reason_n his_o maker_n to_o see_v whether_o he_o will_v stick_v to_o the_o one_o spirit_n and_o live_v in_o he_o or_o cleave_v to_o the_o creature_n and_o live_v in_o they_o and_o man_n reject_v the_o spirit_n and_o cleave_v to_o the_o creature_n and_o so_o by_o virtue_n of_o the_o law_n cast_v himself_o under_o the_o power_n of_o death_n and_o darkness_n which_o be_v the_o curse_n that_o reason_n inflict_v and_o thereupon_o the_o spirit_n within_o man_n be_v a_o prisoner_n to_o the_o flesh_n or_o devil_n as_o reason_n will_v have_v it_o so_o for_o a_o time_n that_o when_o he_o come_v to_o arise_v up_o in_o flesh_n like_o a_o corn_n of_o wheat_n from_o under_o the_o clod_n of_o the_o earth_n the_o creation_n may_v then_o come_v to_o know_v the_o spirit_n that_o be_v within_o it_o be_v the_o mighty_a power_n and_o that_o all_o the_o creation_n be_v rest_v upon_o be_v still_o but_o weakness_n and_o can_v give_v true_a rest_n that_o so_o the_o father_n alone_o may_v be_v all_o in_o all_o qu._n what_o be_v the_o devil_n answ_n the_o flesh_n of_o man_n within_o and_o the_o object_n of_o the_o

man_n within_o a●_z object_n without_o call_v the_o devil_n answ_n because_o when_o it_o be_v king_n it_o lead_v the_o spirit_n of_o man_n into_o darkness_n yea_o into_o utter_a darkness_n and_o sorrow_n far_o from_o light_n li●_z and_o true_a peace_n for_o it_o draw_v man_n to_o live_v u●on_n the_o creation_n and_o to_o reject_v the_o spirit_n the_o be_v that_o you_o call_v the_o serpent_n which_o tempte●adam_n qu._n how_o do_v you_o mean_v make_v it_o more_o clear_a answ_n the_o flesh_n of_o man_n have_v lift_v ●_z his_o he_o will_v against_o the_o spirit_n within_o which_o be_v his_o

as_o for_o example_n covetous_a flesh_n delight_v in_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o riches_n or_o creature_n pride_n of_o the_o flesh_n delight_v in_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o eye_n or_o inward_a delight_n place_v upon_o visible_a object_n now_o the_o man_n live_v in_o and_o upon_o the_o creation_n not_o in_o and_o upon_o the_o spirit_n in_o the_o creation_n and_o though_o he_o
