earth_n 34._o the_o flesh_n signify_v the_o earth_n and_o be_v also_o from_o earth_n 35._o the_o blood_n signify_v the_o water_n and_o be_v from_o the_o water_n 36._o the_o breath_n signify_v the_o

matter_n of_o all_o power_n as_o the_o brain_n in_o man_n head_n be_v 54._o now_o heaven_n kindle_v with_o its_o power_n the_o star_n and_o element_n so_o that_o they_o move_v and_o work_v and_o so_o the_o head_n of_o man_n be_v also_o like_o heaven_n 55._o for_o as_o in_o heaven_n all_o power_n be_v meek_a and_o full_a of_o joy_n and_o as_o heaven_n have_v a_o closure_n or_o firmament_n above_o the_o star_n and_o yet_o all_o power_n go_v forth_o from_o heaven_n into_o the_o star_n so_o the_o brain_n also_o have_v a_o closure_n or_o firmament_n between_o it_o and_o the_o body_n and_o yet_o all_o the_o power_n go_v forth_o from_o the_o brain_n into_o the_o body_n and_o into_o the_o whole_a man_n 56._o the_o head_n contain_v the_o five_o sense_n viz._n see_v hear_v smell_a taste_v and_o

and_o move_a spirit_n in_o man_n and_o beast_n the_o move_n of_o the_o heaven_n make_v the_o star_n movable_a and_o so_o the_o head_n also_o make_v the_o body_n movable_a 58._o now_o open_v here_o the_o eye_n of_o thy_o spirit_n and_o behold_v god_n thy_o creator_n question_n here_o now_o the_o question_n be_v from_o whence_o have_v heaven_n or_o whence_o borrow_v it_o this_o power_n that_o
