intellective_a perception_n be_v before_o ratiocination_n and_o there_o be_v a_o multitude_n of_o complex_n verity_n which_o all_o sound_a man_n know_v without_o syllogism_n the_o disposition_n to_o

earth_n 2._o adam_n and_o eve_n be_v bless_v with_o a_o generative_a multiply_a faculty_n but_o they_o do_v not_o generate_v god_n nor_o do_v every_o bruit_n that_o have_v also_o that_o faculty_n therefore_o there_o be_v a_o soul_n which_o be_v not_o god_n in_o every_o animal_n nor_o yet_o a_o universal_a soul_n 3._o adam_n no_o doubt_n can_v not_o know_v external_a sensible_a object_n till_o they_o be_v bring_v within_o the_o reach_n of_o his_o sense_n no_o more_o can_v we_o 4._o adam_n know_v the_o creature_n as_o soon_o as_o he_o see_v they_o and_o give_v they_o name_n suitable_a this_o be_v more_o than_o we_o can_v so_o soon_o do_v 5._o adam_n have_v a_o law_n give_v he_o and_o therefore_o know_v that_o god_n be_v his_o ruler_n he_o know_v that_o god_n be_v to_o be_v obey_v he_o know_v what_o be_v his_o law_n else_o it_o have_v be_v no_o sin_n to_o break_v it_o he_o know_v that_o he_o ought_v to_o love_v and_o believe_v and_o trust_v god_n and_o cleave_v to_o he_o else_o it_o bid_v be_v no_o sin_n to_o forsake_v he_o and_o to_o believe_v the_o tempter_n and_o to_o love_v the_o forbid_a fruit_n better_o than_o god_n he_o know_v that_o death_n be_v the_o threaten_a wage_n of_o sin_n in_o a_o word_n he_o be_v make_v in_o the_o image_n of_o god_n and_o paul_n tell_v we_o it_o be_v that_o image_n into_o which_o we_o be_v renew_v by_o christ_n and_o he_o describe_v it_o to_o consist_v in_o wisdom_n righteousness_n and_o true_a holiness_n 6._o and_o we_o have_v great_a reason_n to_o think_v that_o it_o be_v adam_n that_o teach_v abel_n to_o offer_v sacrifice_n in_o

that_o he_o be_v naked_a ans_fw-fr what!_o and_o yet_o know_v god_n and_o his_o law_n and_o how_o to_o name_v the_o creature_n and_o how_o to_o dress_v and_o keep_v the_o garden_n he_o know_v not_o that_o nakedness_n be_v shameful_a for_o he_o have_v new_o make_v it_o shameful_a perhaps_o you_o think_v of_o adam_n forbid_a desire_n of_o knowledge_n and_o his_o miserable_a attainment_n of_o it_o but_o that_o do_v not_o make_v he_o a_o new_a soul_n that_o have_v no_o such_o faculty_n before_o adam_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n by_o creation_n luk._n 3._o and_o it_o be_v his_o duty_n and_o
