it_o be_v record_v in_o sacred_a scripture_n to_o be_v a_o natural_a tree_n plant_v by_o god_n in_o paradise_n and_o of_o such_o a_o nature_n that_o whosoever_o do_v eat_v of_o it_o shall_v have_v their_o eye_n open_v against_o themselves_o and_o so_o to_o be_v make_v as_o god_n to_o know_v good_a and_o evil_a it_o may_v be_v god_n will_v admonish_v adam_n both_o inward_o and_o outward_o of_o what_o he_o do_v inward_o and_o in_o his_o heart_n either_o forbid_v or_o teach_v he_o that_o he_o will_v likewise_o for_o the_o great_a evidence_n set_v before_o his_o outward_a eye_n but_o i_o desire_v withal_o that_o they_o will_v grant_v this_o that_o what_o be_v outward_o do_v the_o same_o also_o happen_v inward_o in_o the_o heart_n of_o adam_n that_o he_o be_v there_o tempt_v by_o the_o seed_n of_o the_o serpent_n to_o make_v some_o account_n and_o reckon_a of_o his_o own_o wisdom_n will_n and_o nature_n and_o not_o to_o submit_v himself_o unto_o god_n as_o void_a of_o all_o name_n knowledge_n or_o work_v but_o to_o be_v something_o of_o himself_o and_o there_o be_v two_o cause_n that_o move_v i_o to_o think_v so_o the_o first_o be_v this_o because_o the_o promise_n be_v that_o the_o seed_n of_o the_o woman_n shall_v bruise_v the_o head_n of_o the_o serpent_n now_o we_o read_v of_o no_o natural_a or_o live_a serpent_n who_o head_n be_v so_o bruise_v by_o that_o seed_n therefore_o say_v i_o as_o the_o spiritual_a seed_n of_o the_o woman_n be_v in_o adam_n heart_n so_o likewise_o be_v the_o serpent_n seed_n for_o man_n indeed_o be_v make_v good_a not_o of_o the_o substance_n of_o god_n but_o out_o f_o nothing_n and_o therefore_o he_o always_o turn_v himself_o from_o god_n and_o incline_v to_o his_o own_o nothing_o and_o vanity_n for_o i_o call_v the_o devil_n sin_n death_n and_o hell_n nothing_o as_o many_o of_o the_o ancient_a father_n have_v do_v and_o especial_o taulerus_a for_o god_n never_o create_v they_o but_o they_o be_v a_o nonentity_n a_o not-being_a which_o be_v contrary_a and_o perfect_o oposite_a to_o entity_n and_o be_v and_o peradventure_o this_o be_v the_o devil_n that_o dwell_v in_o adam_n and_o seduce_v he_o as_o well_o as_o in_o lucifer_n the_o other_o cause_o be_v this_o that_o the_o scripture_n likewise_o witness_v that_o the_o city_n of_o god_n and_o the_o heavenly_a jerusalem_n and_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n be_v a_o paradise_n within_o we_o and_o further_o that_o god_n and_o his_o almighty_a word_n be_v our_o paradise_n the_o tree_n of_o life_n the_o temple_n where_o we_o dwell_v walk_v sacrifice_n and_o pray_v as_o we_o likewise_o be_v his_o temple_n and_o paradise_n and_o that_o the_o beast_n speak_v of_o in_o the_o revelation_n which_o the_o whole_a world_n great_a and_o small_a do_v at_o this_o day_n worship_n in_o their_o heart_n as_o likewise_o the_o tree_n of_o knowledge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_a be_v within_o us._n for_o all_o the_o whole_a exterior_a world_n or_o whatsoever_o either_o be_v or_o be_v do_v outward_o be_v but_o only_o a_o accident_n and_o a_o figure_n signify_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o thing_n and_o the_o internal_a nature_n and_o therefore_o there_o be_v nothing_o true_a of_o whatsoever_o be_v see_v with_o our_o eye_n for_o the_o figure_n and_o fashion_n of_o this_o world_n must_v pass_v away_o and_o perish_v as_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o certain_a imaginary_a world_n and_o the_o figure_n of_o the_o world_n that_o be_v true_a right_o eternal_a and_o subsist_v of_o itself_o consequent_o all_o thing_n which_o in_o the_o bible_n be_v do_v external_o and_o signify_o must_v again_o be_v do_v and_o again_o bring_v to_o pass_v after_o their_o manner_n and_o all_z the_o history_n of_o the_o bible_n all_o moses_n and_o the_o prophet_n and_o in_o sum_n the_o whole_a scripture_n do_v to_o this_o day_n stand_v in_o force_n and_o be_v continual_o accomplish_v and_o fulfil_v internal_o and_o spiritual_o all_o thing_n be_v by_o christ_n translate_v into_o the_o truth_n and_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o all_o the_o prophecy_n which_o god_n speak_v from_o the_o beginning_n of_o the_o world_n by_o the_o mouth_n of_o his_o holy_a one_o must_v still_o be_v call_v back_o reiterated_a or_o do_v over_o again_o therefore_o that_o shadow_n or_o that_o tree_n be_v and_o be_v nothing_o else_o in_o the_o truth_n but_o the_o nature_n will_n knowledge_n and_o life_n of_o adam_n of_o this_o he_o shall_v not_o have_v eat_v this_o he_o shall_v not_o have_v ascribe_v or_o arrogate_a to_o himself_o but_o rather_o to_o be_v free_a and_o free_o subject_a to_o god_n and_o not_o to_o have_v know_v anything_o but_o what_o god_n know_v in_o he_o nor_o to_o have_v do_v any_o thing_n but_o what_o god_n do_v in_o he_o nor_o to_o have_v speak_v any_o thing_n but_o what_o god_n speak_v in_o he_o and_o so_o forth_o in_o the_o rest_n to_o the_o end_n that_o god_n without_o any_o impediment_n may_v have_v exercise_v his_o almighty_a kingdom_n will_n nature_n and_o power_n in_o he_o but_o himself_o shall_v have_v be_v utter_o void_a of_o all_o knowledge_n will_n or_o nature_n and_o not_o have_v arrogate_a any_o of_o these_o as_o proper_a to_o himself_o this_o please_a god_n this_o be_v that_o which_o he_o command_v and_o what_o he_o will_v have_v have_v do_v to_o this_o interpretation_n agree_v germane_a divinity_n which_o resolve_v that_o this_o tree_n in_o the_o substance_n thereof_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o our_o own_o will_n and_o knowledge_n of_o which_o alone_o in_o all_o the_o earthy_a paradise_n of_o this_o wide_a world_n of_o our_o heart_n we_o ought_v not_o to_o eat_v but_o to_o account_v it_o as_o forbid_v except_o we_o will_v also_o eat_v of_o death_n and_o destruction_n now_o then_o as_o soon_o as_o adam_n fall_v and_o do_v eat_v of_o this_o tree_n the_o tree_n be_v immediate_o plant_v in_o his_o mind_n and_o afterward_o derive_v into_o all_o the_o branch_n and_o fruit_n thereof_o so_o that_o as_o the_o same_o word_n precept_n and_o forbid_v be_v common_a to_o all_o so_o be_v the_o same_o fall_n all_o we_o which_o be_v in_o adam_n have_v now_o eat_v of_o death_n and_o have_v receive_v from_o the_o serpent_n this_o undigested_a poison_n of_o a_o ill_a bird_n a_o ill_a egg_n hence_o it_o may_v easy_o be_v perceive_v how_o every_o man_n be_v his_o own_o great_a enemy_n and_o what_o he_o ought_v to_o think_v of_o himself_o of_o his_o own_o will_n understanding_n wisdom_n and_o knowledge_n see_v it_o be_v the_o counsel_n seed_n wisdom_n knowledge_n and_o head_n of_o the_o serpent_n which_o must_v by_o christ_n be_v bruise_v in_o we_o i_o say_v it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o as_o in_o the_o old_a testament_n be_v signify_v by_o circumcision_n and_o in_o the_o new_a one_o by_o baptism_n all_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v by_o nature_n and_o inheritance_n from_o adam_n must_v die_v that_o we_o may_v unlearn_v and_o put_v off_o all_o thing_n even_o as_o we_o will_v do_v the_o devil_n and_o death_n itself_o viz._n our_o own_o will_n prudence_n wisdom_n and_o righteousness_n wherewith_o as_o with_o figleaves_a our_o adam_n do_v vain_o seek_v to_o hide_v himself_o for_o that_o be_v sin_n and_o the_o sting_n of_o death_n namely_o to_o eat_v of_o this_o tree_n and_o to_o arrogate_v to_o a_o man_n self_n his_o own_o wisdom_n providence_n will_n nature_n or_o himself_o but_o alas_o for_o woe_n who_o know_v this_o who_o think_v of_o it_o who_o be_v it_o that_o be_v displease_v with_o his_o own_o will_n understanding_n or_o wisdom_n oh_o when_o shall_v we_o forsake_v they_o every_o man_n delight_v himself_o in_o his_o own_o will_n and_o recreate_v his_o mind_n sweet_o and_o contented_o therein_o repose_v upon_o his_o own_o knowledge_n understanding_n and_o the_o like_a the_o tree_n be_v fair_a to_o be_v look_v upon_o and_o sweet_a to_o be_v taste_v and_o therefore_o all_o mortal_a man_n do_v greedy_o swallow_n and_o devour_v death_n as_o adam_n do_v but_o this_o be_v the_o misery_n no_o man_n know_v it_o no_o man_n think_v of_o it_o but_o judge_v it_o to_o be_v good_a and_o all_o flesh_n think_v assure_o that_o this_o be_v the_o tree_n of_o life_n even_o to_o follow_v their_o own_o will_n and_o their_o own_o conceit_n and_o opinion_n of_o good_a which_o indeed_o be_v false_a as_o to_o know_v much_o to_o learn_v much_o to_o discern_v
