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 preeminence_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 than_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 she_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 she_o own_o memory_n for_o all_o that_o we_o do_v in_o this_o life_n be_v

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

angel_n in_o the_o mean_a time_n although_o upon_o the_o persuasion_n of_o the_o former_a discourse_n it_o be_v high_o probable_a that_o the_o soul_n of_o god_n servant_n do_v live_v in_o a_o state_n of_o present_a blessedness_n and_o in_o the_o exceed_a joy_n of_o a_o certain_a expectation_n of_o the_o revelation_n of_o the_o day_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o the_o come_n of_o jesus_n yet_o it_o
