dry_a fluid_a and_o firm_a shall_v all_o conspire_v to_o the_o advantage_n of_o the_o creature_n as_o to_o their_o common_a end_n be_v it_o by_o chance_n that_o the_o spring_n do_v feed_v the_o

be_v it_o to_o think_v that_o god_n shall_v set_v up_o this_o admirable_a house_n of_o the_o visible_a world_n and_o put_v man_n in_o possession_n of_o all_o and_o yet_o expect_v no_o rent_n from_o

eat_v drink_v sleep_n buy_v sell_v and_o pursue_v sinful_a delight_n and_o pleasure_n certain_o the_o wise_a god_n have_v a_o high_a and_o noble_a end_n and_o design_n in_o frame_v and_o fashion_v man_n with_o so_o much_o cost_n and_o care_n namely_o the_o serve_a and_o glorify_v himself_o who_o have_v so_o fearful_o and_o wonderful_o make_v he_o and_o so_o plentiful_o and_o rich_o provide_v for_o he_o and_o therefore_o the_o jewish_a talmud_n propound_v the_o question_n why_o god_n make_v man_n on_o the_o sabbath-eve_n give_v this_o answer_n that_o he_o may_v present_o enter_v upon_o

intend_v man_n for_o a_o high_a end_n than_o eat_v drink_v sleep_a or_o take_v his_o pleasure_n which_o be_v the_o life_n of_o a_o beast_n then_o brutish_a principle_n have_v be_v sufficient_a for_o such_o brutish_a end_n and_o practice_n the_o soul_n of_o a_o beast_n may_v have_v serve_v his_o turn_n but_o since_o god_n have_v make_v man_n a_o intelligent_a creature_n and_o give_v he_o a_o reasonable_a soul_n which_o no_o other_o creature_n in_o this_o world_n have_v it_o be_v reasonable_a to_o believe_v he_o have_v make_v he_o for_o a_o high_a end_n than_o the_o other_o creature_n and_o those_o who_o will_v help_v the_o weak_a eye_n of_o nature_n by_o the_o glass_n of_o scripture_n can_v but_o see_v the_o maker_n end_n in_o man_n excellency_n it_o be_v write_v in_o such_o
