in_o the_o opinion_n of_o man_n who_o mistake_v the_o case_n but_o not_o in_o truth_n 2_o because_o this_o exposition_n will_v teach_v and_o encourage_v man_n to_o be_v atheist_n and_o epicure_n in_o

that_o they●_n soul_n shall_v die_v with_o their_o body_n and_o that_o they_o shall_v have_v no_o be_v after_o death_n if_o this_o conceit_n can_v flesh_n they_o thus_o in_o their_o impious_a and_o

say_v if_o he_o speak_v from_o his_o heart_n that_o he_o be_v better_a to_o vanish_v into_o a_o thousand_o nothing_o then_o to_o be_v cast_v into_o hell_n what_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o man_n be_v

of_o torment_n but_o because_o they_o judge_v a_o be_v there_o to_o be_v incomparable_o worse_o than_o no_o be_v any_o where_o and_o why_o be_v man_n who_o be_v sensible_a of_o hell_n fire_n so_o
