quite_o free_v from_o the_o body_n but_o object_n say_v they_o we_o see_v man_n forgo_v their_o reason_n as_o fool_n and_o melancholy_a person_n and_o see_v it_o be_v forgo_v it_o may_v also_o be_v corrupt_v and_o if_o corrupt_a it_o may_v also_o die_v for_o what_o be_v death_n but_o a_o utter_a and_o full_a corruption_n nay_o thou_o shall_v say_v rather_o i_o have_v see_v divers_a who_o have_v seem_v to_o have_v lose_v their_o right_a wit_n have_v recover_v they_o again_o by_o good_a diet_n and_o medicinable_a drink_n but_o have_v they_o be_v utter_o lose_v and_o go_v no_o physic_n can_v have_v restore_v they_o again_o therefore_o of_o necessity_n the_o soul_n be_v as_o sound_v as_o before_o it_o be_v but_o like_o a_o eclipse_v of_o the_o sun_n it_o seem_v be_v dim_v but_o it_o be_v

their_o understanding_n seem_v only_o to_o be_v eclipse_v during_o the_o time_n of_o their_o fit_n but_o afterward_o they_o be_v as_o discreet_a as_o though_o they_o ail_v nothing_o you_o shall_v

because_o it_o be_v trouble_v by_o the_o distemperature_n or_o indisposition_n of_o the_o body_n may_v as_o well_o uphold_v and_o maintain_v that_o the_o child_n in_o his_o mother_n womb_n die_v with_o his_o mother_n because_o he_o move_v with_o she_o and_o be_v partaker_n with_o she_o in_o her_o harm_n and_o throw_v by_o reason_n of_o the_o straight_a conjunction_n that_o be_v between_o

object_n even_o by_o the_o death_n of_o their_o mother_n last_o whereas_o some_o say_v that_o our_o mind_n can_v conceive_v any_o thing_n here_o but_o by_o the_o help_n of_o the_o imagination_n and_o therefore_o when_o the_o imagination_n be_v go_v with_o the_o instrument_n whereto_o it_o be_v tie_v the_o soul_n can_v not_o work_v nor_o consequent_o be_v to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o they_o shall_v say_v that_o because_o the_o child_n be_v in_o his_o mother_n womb_n take_v nourishment_n of_o her_o blood_n by_o his_o navel_n therefore_o he_o can_v live_v when_o he_o be_v come_v out_o of_o her_o womb_n and_o his_o navel_n string_n cut_v off_o when_o we_o see_v that_o then_o be_v the_o time_n that_o the_o mouth_n and_o the_o tongue_n and_o the_o other_o
