Porder. A treatise, very necessarie and profitable for this our laste ruinous age of the vvorlde, in the vvhiche are such svvarmes of atheistes and epicures, vvhose pestilent infection is more to be feared then papistrie. Therefore vvorthy the consideracion of al men, as vvel for ouerthrovv of their pernicious errours, as staying the faith and conscience of the vveake and vnlearned.; De resurrectione.

the_o charge_n &_o care_n of_o all_o thing_n to_o his_o wisdom_n and_o justice_n if_o so_o be_v that_o they_o will_v stick_v unto_o the_o foundation_n appoint_v &_o the_o principle_n once_o allow_v furthermore_o see_v they_o be_v of_o this_o opinion_n it_o be_v reason_n that_o they_o think_v nothing_o either_o of_o thing_n terrestrial_a or_o celestial_a to_o be_v destitute_a of_o the_o care_n and_o providence_n of_o god_n but_o that_o the_o care_n of_o the_o creator_n do_v extend_v itself_o unto_o all_o thing_n indifferent_o as_o well_o unto_o those_o which_o be_v open_a as_o those_o

every_o thing_n peculiar_o according_a to_o his_o nature_n &_o for_o that_o purpose_n for_o which_o it_o be_v create_v for_o i_o do_v not_o think_v it_o expedient_a with_o much_o labour_n particular_o to_o declare_v and_o distinguish_v with_o division_n what_o be_v agreeable_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o every_o thing_n man_n true_o of_o who_o we_o now_o entreat_v as_o he_o be_v hungry_a have_v need_n

he_o may_v lawful_o labour_v for_o live_v and_o succession_n but_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o see_v sustenance_n and_o succession_n do_v pe_z rtayne_v to_o that_o which_o consist_v of_o both_o

consist_v of_o both_o these_o part_n must_v receive_v judgement_n for_o all_o his_o do_n but_o you_o can_v perceive_v by_o no_o mean_a that_o this_o do_v happen_v in_o this_o life_n for_o that_o be_v

until_o death_n &_o we_o see_v they_o which_o be_v well_o know_v for_o there_o virtue_n to_o spend_v their_o life_n in_o suffer_a grief_n vexation_n slander_n reproach_n and_o all_o kind_n of_o affliction_n neither_o can_v you_o perceive_v it_o after_o death_n for_o that_o which_o consist_v of_o both_o part_n do_v not_o remain_v see_v the_o soul_n be_v separate_v from_o the_o body_n and_o the_o body_n itself_o dissolve_v into_o those_o thing_n of_o which_o it_o be_v first_o make_v and_o nothing_o now_o remain_v which_o reserve_v the_o old_a form_n or_o nature_n or_o yet_o the_o

therefore_o which_o do_v admit_v the_o providence_n of_o god_n and_o receive_v the_o same_o principle_n and_o ground_n which_o we_o do_v and_o afterward_o i_o know_v not_o how_o do_v shrink_v and_o
