the_o foundation_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o form_v the_o spirit_n of_o man_n within_o he_o he_o make_v the_o body_n of_o earth_n and_o in_o it_o a_o beam_n of_o heavenly_a fire_n now_o in_o the_o womb_n before_o the_o birth_n soul_n inspire_v in_o all_o man_n their_o soul_n and_o without_o a_o mother_n send_v daily_o million_o into_o the_o world_n which_o neither_o from_o eternity_n nor_o at_o once_o in_o one_o time_n lay_v they_o up_o in_o the_o sun_n or_o moon_n nor_o in_o some_o secret_a cloister_n where_o they_o sleep_v till_o they_o be_v awake_v neither_o do_v he_o make_v at_o first_o a_o certain_a number_n infuse_v part_n in_o beast_n and_o part_n in_o man_n and_o be_v unwilling_a to_o take_v further_a pain_n will_v make_v no_o more_o so_o that_o the_o widow_n soul_n shall_v be_v marry_v to_o the_o next_o body_n that_o shall_v be_v bear_v and_o so_o by_o often_o change_a man_n soul_n shall_v pass_v from_o beast_n to_o man_n these_o be_v fond_a thought_n since_o there_o be_v far_o more_o bear_v than_o die_v than_o thousand_o soul_n shall_v be_v abortive_a or_o other_o death_n shall_v supply_v their_o soul_n but_o as_o nature_n god_n handmaid_n do_v create_v body_n in_o time_n distinct_a and_o in_o due_a order_n so_o god_n give_v soul_n the_o like_a successive_a date_n which_o himself_o form_n in_o new_a body_n which_o himself_o make_v of_o no_o material_a thing_n for_o unto_o angel_n he_o have_v give_v no_o power_n either_o to_o form_v the_o shape_n or_o bring_v the_o stuff_n from_o air_n or_o fire_n nor_o in_o this_o do_v he_o use_v nature_n service_n parent_n for_o although_o she_o can_v bring_v body_n from_o body_n yet_o she_o can_v never_o traduce_v soul_n from_o soul_n as_o light_a spring_n from_o light_n and_o fire_n from_o fire_n as_o some_o learned_a father_n that_o be_v great_a light_n of_o old_a do_v hold_v for_o say_v they_o how_o can_v we_o say_v that_o god_n make_v the_o soul_n and_o yet_o not_o make_v he_o the_o author_n of_o her_o

author_n of_o the_o wine_n if_o we_o know_v who_o to_o blame_v for_o her_o dregs_n none_o be_v yet_o so_o gross_a as_o to_o contend_v for_o this_o that_o soul_n may_v be_v traduce_v from_o body_n between_o who_o nature_n there_o be_v no_o proportion_n but_o many_o subtle_a wit_n have_v justify_v that_o soul_n may_v spiritual_o spring_v from_o soul_n which_o if_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o

no_o creature_n ever_o form_v aught_o for_o that_o be_v proper_a for_o the_o almighty_a if_o then_o the_o soul_n make_v another_o soul_n she_o must_v take_v it_o of_o some_o former_a stuff_n or_o matter_n but_o there_o be_v no_o matter_n find_v in_o the_o soul_n nature_n then_o if_o her_o heavenly_a form_n do_v not_o agree_v with_o any_o matter_n in_o the_o world_n then_o must_v she_o needs_o be_v create_v of_o nothing_o and_o that_o be_v only_o proper_a to_o god_n alone_o again_o if_o soul_n do_v beget_v soul_n it_o be_v either_o by_o themselves_o or_o the_o body_n power_n if_o by_o themselves_o what_o hinder_v they_o but_o that_o they_o may_v engender_v soul_n every_o hour_n if_o by_o the_o body_n how_o can_v understanding_n and_o will_v join_v with_o the_o body_n in_o this_o act_n only_o since_o when_o they_o do_v their_o other_o work_n they_o do_v abstract_a they_o themselves_o from_o the_o body_n moreover_o if_o soul_n be_v beget_v of_o soul_n they_o shall_v move_v and_o change_v into_o each_o other_o but_o motion_n and_o change_n bring_v at_o last_o corruption_n and_o then_o how_o shall_v it_o be_v immortal_a if_o last_o soul_n do_v use_v generation_n than_o they_o shall_v spread_v incorruptible_a seed_n and_o than_o what_o become_v of_o that_o which_o they_o do_v loose_a when_o the_o act_n of_o generation_n do_v not_o speed_v but_o if_o the_o soul_n can_v cast_v spiritual_a seed_n yet_o she_o will_v not_o because_o she_o never_o die_v mortal_a thing_n desire_v to_o breed_v their_o like_a that_o so_o they_o may_v immortalize_v their_o kind_n therefore_o the_o angel_n who_o be_v call_v the_o son_n of_o god_n neither_o marry_v nor_o be_v give_v in_o marriage_n their_o spirit_n and_o we_o be_v of_o one_o substance_n 19_o and_o have_v one_o father_n the_o lord_n of_o heaven_n who_o will_v at_o first_o that_o in_o each_o other_o thing_n earth_n and_o water_n live_v soul_n shall_v breed_v but_o man_n soul_n which_o he_o will_v make_v their_o king_n shall_v immediate_o be_v produce_v from_o himself_o and_o doubtless_o when_o he_o take_v the_o woman_n from_o the_o side_n of_o the_o man_n he_o alone_o inspierd_v the_o soul_n for_o it_o be_v not_o say_v he_o do_v divide_v man_n soul_n but_o take_v flesh_n of_o his_o flesh_n and_o bone_n of_o his_o bone_n and_o last_o god_n be_v make_v man_n for_o man_n sake_n and_o like_o he_o in_o all_o save_v only_o in_o sin_n take_v his_o body_n from_o the_o womb_n of_o the_o virgin_n but_o all_o agree_v god_n form_v his_o soul_n within_o him_z than_o be_v the_o soul_n from_o god_n so_o
