angelical_a person_n bewitch_v eve_n innocent_a soul_n to_o hearken_v unto_o he_o and_o her_o eye_n to_o dote_v upon_o he_o that_o she_o admit_v he_o entrance_n into_o her_o body_n in_o which_o and_o by_o which_o she_o find_v so_o much_o delight_n that_o after_o that_o she_o entice_v her_o husband_n who_o have_v copulation_n with_o eve_n as_o man_n with_o woman_n in_o these_o day_n so_o her_o innocent_a soul_n and_o body_n be_v defile_v by_o that_o reprobate_a dragon-angel_n after_o which_o her_o husband_n adam_n go_v in_o unto_o she_o be_v also_o defile_v as_o a_o sound_a woman_n shall_v receive_v into_o her_o body_n a_o disease_a man_n not_o only_o her_o womb_n be_v defile_v but_o she_o pollute_v her_o husband_n also_o as_o the_o pox_n or_o gangreen_n do_v eat_v throughout_o the_o whole_a man_n so_o eve_n soul_n and_o body_n be_v defile_v do_v putrify_v the_o seed_n of_o adam_n from_o hence_o it_o be_v there_o come_v two_o seed_n the_o one_o pure_a the_o other_o impure_a the_o one_o righteous_a the_o other_o wicked_a instance_n from_o the_o womb_n of_o rebecca_n come_v two_o seed_n at_o one_o travel_n bless_a jacob_n and_o curse_a esau_n thus_o in_o plainness_n of_o term_n i_o have_v in_o short_a writ_n to_o plain_a sober-hearted_n man_n but_o now_o from_o the_o word_n of_o the_o scripture_n i_o must_v speak_v to_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n that_o innocent_a soul-saved_n generation_n and_o that_o because_o the_o learned_a of_o this_o perish_a world_n can_v believe_v though_o a_o angel_n shall_v speak_v from_o heaven_n as_o you_o the_o seed_n of_o the_o lord_n shall_v hear_v that_o seed_n of_o this_o serpent_n will_v hiss_v yea_o if_o possible_a sting_n from_o his_o venomous_a tongue_n this_o infallible_a interpretation_n of_o these_o ensue_a word_n but_o of_o the_o tree_n of_o knowledge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_n thou_o shall_v not_o eat_v of_o it_o for_o in_o the_o day_n that_o thou_o eat_v thereof_o thou_o shall_v sure_o die_v now_o if_o you_o look_v into_o the_o three_o of_o genes_n with_o a_o eye_n of_o faith_n than_o you_o may_v clear_o see_v what_o that_o tree_n of_o knowledge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_n do_v signify_v the_o word_n be_v these_o and_o the_o serpent_n say_v to_o the_o woman_n you_o shall_v not_o sure_o die_v for_o god_n do_v know_v that_o in_o the_o day_n you_o eat_v thereof_o than_o your_o eye_n shall_v be_v open_v and_o you_o shall_v be_v as_o god_n know_v good_a and_o evil_n and_o when_o the_o woman_n see_v that_o the_o tree_n be_v good_a for_o food_n and_o that_o it_o be_v pleasant_a to_o the_o eye_n and_o a_o tree_n to_o be_v desire_v to_o make_v one_o wise_a she_o take_v of_o the_o fruit_n thereof_o and_o do_v eat_v and_o give_v also_o unto_o her_o husband_n and_o he_o do_v eat_v oh_o my_o spiritual_a brethren_n in_o that_o my_o soul_n desire_v your_o perfection_n as_o my_o own_o therefore_o i_o will_v glad_o have_v you_o possess_v with_o a_o infallible_a understanding_n between_o michael_n and_o his_o angel_n and_o the_o dragon_n and_o his_o angel_n or_o between_o the_o seed_n of_o the_o woman_n and_o the_o seed_n of_o the_o serpent_n why_o because_o in_o the_o knowledge_n of_o these_o two_o distinct_a seed_n son_n o●_n generation_n depend_v a_o general_a understanding_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o scripture_n therefore_o let_v thy_o ear_n wait_v on_o thy_o eye_n and_o thy_o heart_n on_o both_o for_o now_o i_o shall_v unlock_v that_o secret_a cabinet_n that_o have_v not_o be_v open_v since_o the_o creation_n till_o this_o last_o witness_n therefore_o attend_v and_o take_v notice_n that_o it_o be_v a_o general_a opinion_n among_o learned_a man_n that_o the_o serpent_n which_o appear_v unto_o eve_n be_v one_o of_o the_o beast_n of_o the_o field_n which_o the_o lord_n god_n have_v make_v and_o that_o the_o devil_n be_v a_o invisible_a spirit_n which_o enter_v into_o the_o body_n of_o the_o serpent_n and_o speak_v those_o subtle_a speech_n through_o his_o mouth_n and_o so_o cause_v the_o woman_n to_o eat_v of_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o natural_a tree_n which_o the_o lord_n god_n have_v forbid_v and_o tempt_v her_o husband_n to_o eat_v of_o that_o fruit_n with_o she_o it_o operate_v that_o venomous_a evil_n in_o they_o and_o all_o mankind_n note_v oh_o the_o gross_a darkness_n that_o possess_v the_o learned_a man_n of_o this_o perish_a world_n you_o know_v that_o the_o scripture_n be_v general_o express_v in_o natural_a term_n for_o the_o manifestation_n of_o spiritual_a thing_n to_o the_o weak_a comprehension_n of_o sinful_a mortal_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o the_o natural_a wisdom_n of_o this_o world_n will_v persuade_v man_n to_o understand_v they_o exact_o in_o the_o letter_n because_o they_o measure_v the_o glorious_a thing_n of_o eternity_n by_o their_o rational_a learning_n only_o as_o aforesaid_a but_o to_o enlighten_v thy_o understanding_n mind_n scripture-record_n how_o that_o christ_n be_v call_v a_o lion_n a_o lamb_n a_o stone_n a_o door_n a_o way_n a_o vine_n a_o green_a tree_n and_o such_o like_a expression_n in_o reference_n unto_o spiritual_a meaning_n also_o you_o may_v read_v evil-minded_n man_n be_v sometime_o call_v by_o the_o name_n of_o devil_n dragon_n viper_n serpent_n dog_n swine_n fruitless_a tree_n and_o such_o like_a according_a to_o that_o of_o john_n the_o baptist_n when_o he_o say_v now_o the_o axe_n be_v lay_v to_o the_o root_n of_o the_o tree_n every_o tree_n therefore_o that_o bring_v not_o forth_o good_a fruit_n be_v hew_v down_o and_o cast_v into_o the_o fire_n so_o likewise_o you_o that_o be_v spiritual_a may_v know_v that_o yea_o that_o angelical_a reprobate_n by_o who_o eve_n be_v deceive_v be_v call_v a_o dragon_n a_o old_a serpent_n the_o devil_n and_o satan_n a_o deceiver_n or_o the_o tree_n of_o knowledge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_a and_o such_o like_a name_n suitable_a unto_o his_o curse_a nature_n so_o that_o the_o naked_a truth_n be_v this_o that_o serpent_n that_o tempt_v eve_n be_v that_o angelical_a dragon-devil_n beforesaid_a which_o the_o lord_n god_n from_o the_o high_a heaven_n cast_v down_o to_o the_o low_a earth_n where_o there_o as_o beforesaid_a he_o bewitch_v eve_n innocent_o soul_n for_o if_o you_o know_v what_o you_o read_v you_o shall_v find_v three_o prevalent_a argument_n persuade_v she_o to_o consent_v unto_o the_o serpent_n language_n 1._o

of_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n and_o none_o but_o you_o do_v know_v that_o in_o the_o divine_a will_n of_o the_o infinite_a majesty_n there_o be_v a_o twofold_a operation_n whic●_n be_v this_o mind_n
