not_o now_o be_v that_o he_o shall_v be_v permit_v to_o eat_v of_o the_o tree_n of_o life_n otherwise_o he_o must_v have_v live_v for_o ever_o and_o the_o word_n of_o god_n if_o thou_o eat_v thereof_o thou_o shall_v die_v the_o death_n have_v be_v false_a moreover_o god_n who_o be_v mere_a love_n and_o can_v for_o ever_o be_v angry_a with_o his_o own_o workmanship_n do_v well_o provide_v that_o man_n in_o this_o misery_n hate_v of_o god_n and_o a_o enemy_n to_o he_o may_v not_o for_o ever_o leada_n wretched_a and_o calamitous_a life_n and_o for_o that_o cause_n he_o drive_v he_o out_o of_o

unto_o god_n after_o victory_n therefore_o god_n who_o can_v hate_n we_o ever_o deal_v merciful_o with_o we_o howsoever_o he_o handle_v we_o if_o we_o will_v always_o take_v it_o in_o good_a part_n and_o not_o suspect_v he_o to_o be_v our_o enemy_n for_o so_o be_v the_o nature_n and_o suspicion_n of_o man_n heart_n now_o i_o do_v thus_o think_v that_o for_o agreat_a testimony_n the_o same_o thing_n do_v likewise_o happen_v in_o the_o true_a paradise_n i._n e._n in_o adam_n heart_n as_o there_o be_v the_o tree_n of_o knowledge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_a which_o be_v the_o seed_n speech_n counsel_n knowledge_n wisdom_n and_o will_n of_o the_o serpent_n so_o there_o also_o be_v the_o tree_n of_o life_n the_o seed_n speech_n and_o counsel_n of_o god_n or_o of_o the_o woman_n and_o as_o god_n and_o the_o devil_n be_v even_o so_o be_v these_o two_o tree_n so_o contrary_a the_o one_o to_o the_o other_o that_o the_o one_o bring_v life_n the_o other_o death_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v

one_o to_o the_o other_o so_o great_a be_v the_o gulf_n between_o they_o be_v as_o far_o divide_v asunder_o as_o heaven_n and_o hell_n he_o that_o eat_v of_o the_o tree_n of_o life_n that_o be_v of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n he_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n and_o can_v die_v no_o nor_o sin_n for_o their_o fruit_n do_v eat_v the_o eater_n and_o translate_v he_o into_o his_o own_o nature_n that_o be_v into_o life_n as_o elsewhere_o the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o eat_v of_o christ_n his_o flesh_n for_o indeed_o it_o be_v the_o same_o thing_n to_o eat_v christ_n to_o live_v in_o his_o word_n to_o

and_o evil_a to_o obey_v the_o seed_n and_o word_n of_o the_o serpent_n and_o to_o become_v god_n therefore_o he_o that_o eat_v of_o the_o deadly_a tree_n and_o cleave_v to_o the_o word_n and_o
