of_o be_v command_v down_o into_o the_o deep_a for_o a_o further_a degree_n of_o actual_a torment_n which_o he_o thus_o deprecate_v there_o be_v torture_n appoint_v to_o the_o very_a spiritual_a nature_n of_o evil_a angel_n man_n that_o be_v lead_v by_o sense_n have_v easy_o grant_v the_o body_n subject_a to_o torment_v who_o yet_o have_v not_o so_o ready_o conceive_v this_o incident_a to_o a_o spiritual_a substance_n the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v not_o think_v it_o fit_a to_o acquaint_v we_o with_o the_o particular_a manner_n of_o these_o invisible_a act_n rather_o willing_a that_o we_o shall_v herein_o fear_v then_o inquire_v but_o as_o all_o matter_n of_o faith_n though_o they_o can_v be_v prove_v by_o reason_n for_o that_o they_o be_v in_o a_o high_a sphere_n yet_o afford_v a_o answer_n able_a to_o stop_v the_o mouth_n of_o all_o reason_n that_o dare_v bark_n against_o they_o since_o truth_n can_v be_v opposite_a to_o itself_o so_o this_o of_o the_o suffering_n of_o spirit_n there_o be_v therefore_o both_o a_o intentional_a torment_n incident_a to_o spirit_n and_o a_o real_a for_o as_o in_o blessedness_n the_o good_a spirit_n find_v themselves_o join_v unto_o the_o chief_a good_a and_o hereupon_o feel_v a_o perfect_a love_n of_o god_n and_o unspeakable_a joy_n in_o he_o and_o rest_n in_o themselves_o so_o contrary_o the_o evil_a spirit_n perceive_v themselves_o eternal_o exclude_v from_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n and_o see_v themselves_o settle_v in_o a_o woeful_a darkness_n and_o from_o the_o sense_n of_o this_o separation_n arise_v a_o horror_n not_o to_o be_v express_v not_o to_o be_v conceive_v how_o many_o man_n have_v we_o know_v to_o torment_v themselves_o with_o their_o own_o thought_n there_o need_v no_o other_o gibbet_n then_o that_o which_o their_o trouble_a spirit_n have_v erect_v in_o their_o own_o heart_n and_o if_o some_o pain_n begin_v at_o the_o body_n and_o from_o thence_o afflict_v the_o soul_n in_o a_o copartnership_n of_o grief_n yet_o other_o arise_v immediate_o from_o the_o soul_n and_o draw_v the_o body_n into_o a_o participation_n of_o misery_n why_o may_v we_o not_o therefore_o conceive_v mere_a and_o separate_a spirit_n capable_a of_o such_o a_o inward_a excruciation_n beside_o which_o i_o hear_v the_o judge_n of_o man_n and_o angel_n say_v go_v you_o curse_v into_o everlasting_a fire_n prepare_v

why_o may_v we_o not_o attribute_v a_o spiritual_a nature_n to_o that_o more_o than_o natural_a fire_n in_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n the_o element_n shall_v be_v dissolve_v by_o fire_n and_o if_o the_o pure_a quintessentiall_a matter_n of_o the_o sky_n and_o the_o element_n of_o fire_n itself_o shall_v be_v dissolve_v by_o fire_n than_o that_o last_o fire_n shall_v be_v of_o another_o

to_o spiritual_a essence_n or_o why_o may_v we_o not_o distinguish_v of_o fire_n as_o it_o be_v itself_o a_o bodily_a creature_n and_o as_o it_o be_v a_o instrument_n of_o god_n justice_n so_o work_v not_o by_o any_o material_a virtue_n or_o power_n of_o it_o own_o but_o by_o a_o certain_a height_n of_o supernatural_a efficacy_n to_o which_o it_o be_v exalt_v by_o the_o omnipotence_n of_o that_o supreme_a and_o righteous_a judge_n or_o last_o why_o may_v we_o not_o conceive_v that_o though_o spirit_n have_v nothing_o material_a in_o their_o nature_n which_o that_o fire_n shall_v work_v upon_o yet_o by_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o almighty_a arbiter_n of_o the_o world_n just_o will_v their_o torment_n they_o may_v be_v make_v most_o sensible_a of_o pain_n and_o by_o the_o obedible_a submission_n of_o their_o create_a nature_n wrought_v upon_o immediate_o by_o their_o appoint_a torture_n beside_o the_o very_a horror_n which_o arise_v from_o the_o place_n whereto_o they_o be_v everlasting_o confine_v for_o if_o the_o incorporeal_a spirit_n of_o live_a man_n may_v be_v hold_v in_o a_o loathe_a or_o painful_a body_n and_o conceive_v sorrow_n to_o be_v so_o imprison_v why_o may_v we_o not_o as_o easy_o yield_v that_o the_o evil_a spirit_n of_o angel_n or_o man_n may_v be_v hold_v in_o those_o direful_a flame_n and_o much_o more_o abhor_v therein_o to_o continue_v for_o ever_o tremble_v rather_o o_o my_o soul_n at_o the_o thought_n of_o this_o woeful_a condition_n of_o the_o evil_a angel_n who_o for_o one_o only_a act_n of_o apostasy_n from_o god_n be_v thus_o perpetual_o torment_v whereas_o we_o sinful_a wretch_n multiply_v many_o and_o presumptuous_a offence_n against_o the_o majesty_n of_o our_o god_n and_o withal_o admire_v and_o magnify_v that_o
