vnreasonable-creature_n and_o thing_n without_o life_n be_v ordain_v for_o other_o not_o for_o themselves_o now_o if_o such_o thing_n be_v make_v in_o respect_n of_o other_o let_v we_o consider_v for_o who_o they_o be_v indeed_o create_v shall_v we_o think_v they_o be_v make_v for_o the_o angel_n doubtless_o no_o wise_a man_n will_v say_v that_o they_o be_v make_v for_o their_o sake_n because_o the_o thing_n make_v for_o the_o respect_n or_o sake_n of_o another_o must_v concern_v either_o the_o make_n or_o the_o continuance_n or_o the_o recreation_n of_o those_o thing_n for_o which_o they_o be_v make_v for_o they_o be_v make_v either_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o propagation_n and_o succession_n of_o their_o kind_n or_o of_o their_o nourishment_n or_o to_o cover_v they_o or_o to_o cure_v they_o or_o for_o their_o better_a welfare_n and_o rest_n now_o the_o angel_n need_v no_o such_o thing_n for_o they_o neither_o have_v any_o succession_n of_o their_o kind_n neither_o want_n clothing_n bodily_a nourishment_n nor_o any_o thing_n else_o and_o if_o angel_n have_v no_o need_n of_o such_o thing_n it_o be_v then_o evident_a that_o no_o other_o nature_n have_v place_n above_o the_o angel_n can_v have_v need_n of_o they_o because_o by_o how_o much_o high_o the_o place_n of_o it_o be_v so_o much_o the_o less_o need_n have_v it_o of_o supply_n or_o assistance_n from_o another_o this_o be_v so_o we_o must_v seek_v out_o a_o nature_n which_o be_v endue_v with_o reason_n and_o yet_o need_v such_o thing_n as_o be_v aforemention_v and_o what_o other_o nature_n can_v be_v find_v of_o that_o sort_n if_o man_n be_v pass_v over_o surely_n none_o and_o if_o no_o other_o can_v be_v discover_v it_o follow_v by_o good_a reason_n that_o both_o thing_n void_a of_o life_n and_o unreasonable-creature_n be_v make_v for_o the_o sake_n of_o man_n and_o if_o they_o be_v ordain_v for_o he_o as_o it_o be_v evident_a they_o be_v then_o that_o be_v likewise_o the_o cause_n why_o he_o be_v constitute_v the_o governor_n also_o of_o those_o creature_n now_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o a_o governor_n to_o use_v those_o thing_n which_o be_v put_v under_o his_o government_n in_o such_o manner_n and_o measure_n as_o need_v and_o conveniency_n shall_v require_v and_o not_o to_o abuse_v they_o untemperate_o or_o to_o serve_v voluptuous_o his_o own_o delicate_a appetite_n neither_o ought_v he_o to_o bear_v himself_o tyrannous_o or_o ungentle_o towards_o those_o who_o he_o govern_v for_o they_o that_o so_o do_v yea_o and_o they_o that_o use_v not_o merciful_o their_o unreasonable-cattell_n be_v therein_o great_a offender_n neither_o perform_v the_o part_n of_o a_o governor_n nor_o of_o a_o just_a man_n according_a to_o that_o which_o be_v write_v the_o just_a man_n have_v compassion_n upon_o the_o life_n of_o his_o beast_n sect_n 5._o i._o it_o be_v here_o prove_v that_o neither_o thing_n without-life_n nor_o the_o unreasonable_a creature_n be_v make_v for_o themselves_o first_o by_o argument_n take_v from_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o nature_n and_o use_n of_o thing_n without_o life_n ii_o it_o be_v prove_v also_o by_o consider_v those_o creature_n which_o be_v void_a of_o reason_n and_o which_o be_v for_o the_o most_o part_n very_o serviceable_a to_o man._n iii_o and_o last_o it_o be_v prove_v by_o consider_v those_o thing_n which_o seem_v to_o be_v rather_o harmful_a then_o profitable_a to_o mankind_n but_o some_o perhaps_o will_v say_v that_o nothing_o be_v make_v inrespect_n of_o another_o but_o every_o thing_n in_o respect_n of_o it_o self_n therefore_o distinguish_v first_o between_o thing_n inanimate_a and_o those_o that_o have_v life_n let_v we_o observe_v whether_o thing_n void_a of_o life_n be_v likely_a to_o have_v be_v create_v only_o for_o their_o own_o sake_n for_o if_o those_o thing_n be_v make_v in_o respect_n of_o themselves_o how_o or_o upon_o what_o shall_v living-creature_n feed_v we_o see_v that_o nature_n out_o of_o the_o earth_n produce_v food_n both_o of_o fruit_n and_o of_o plant_n to_o every_o living-creature_n some_o few_o except_v who_o feed_v be_v upon_o flesh_n yea_o and_o those_o creature_n which_o be_v nourish_v by_o eat_a flesh_n do_v feed_v on_o such_o beast_n as_o be_v sustain_v by_o eat_v the_o fruit_n of_o the_o earth_n for_o lion_n and_o wolf_n feed_v on_o lamb_n goat_n

moreover_o the_o nature_n of_o those_o fish_n which_o devour_v one_o another_o do_v not_o so_o extend_v itself_o to_o all_o fish_n that_o they_o do_v general_o devour_v the_o flesh_n of_o one_o another_o but_o it_o break_v off_o in_o such_o as_o eat_v weed_n and_o such_o other_o thing_n as_o grow_v in_o the_o water_n for_o if_o all_o sort_n of_o fish_n have_v

this_o be_v manifest_a that_o man_n in_o some_o thing_n participate_v with_o creature_n void_a of_o life_n and_o that_o he_o be_v partaker_n also_o of_o life_n as_o those_o living-creature_n be_v which_o be_v unreasonable_a and_o that_o he_o be_v endow_v likewise_o with_o understanding_n as_o be_v creature_n reasonable_a with_o inanimate_a creature_n man_n partake_v in_o this_o that_o he_o

which_o be_v bodiless_a or_o spiritual_a as_o have_v be_v say_v before_o for_o god_n the_o creator_n of_o all_o thing_n have_v seem_v by_o little_a and_o little_a so_o to_o collect_v and_o knit_v

of_o all_o thing_n if_o we_o well_o consider_v how_o fit_o he_o have_v unite_v the_o substance_n of_o individual_a thing_n by_o their_o particular_a part_n and_o all_o the_o several_a species_n

of_o the_o dimension_n but_o accidental_o it_o have_v dimension_n because_o the_o body_n in_o which_o it_o be_v have_v in_o it_o the_o three_o dimension_n we_o so_o conceive_v it_o together_o with_o the_o body_n as_o though_o the_o soul_n also_o have_v in_o it_o the_o three_o dimension_n we_o argue_v further_o and_o say_v thus_o every_o body_n have_v his_o motion_n either_o from_o without_o

thus_o much_o in_o general_a in_o confutation_n of_o all_o those_o who_o general_o affirm_v that_o the_o soul_n be_v a_o bodily_a thing_n now_o we_o will_v treat_v particular_o against_o they_o who_o

therefore_o the_o soul_n be_v a_o bodily-thing_n it_o be_v here_o to_o be_v observe_v first_o that_o he_o prove_v thing_n universal_a by_o thing_n particular_a which_o be_v not_o allowable_a by_o the_o rule_n of_o logic_n next_o whereas_o he_o say_v that_o likeness_n and_o unlikeness_n can_v pertain_v to_o any_o thing_n void_a of_o body_n it_o be_v false_a for_o we_o know_v that_o number_n
