proper_o and_o true_o so_o call_v for_o whereas_o the_o apostle_n say_v we_o shall_v all_o sleep_n it_o may_v be_v very_o probable_o allege_v that_o by_o sleep_v he_o understandeth_v not_o death_n itself_o but_o the_o continuance_n of_o death_n or_o to_o use_v oecumen_n his_o phrase_n that_o the_o apostle_n be_v speak_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d of_o a_o long_a death_n or_o of_o a_o death_n continue_v for_o so_o long_a time_n that_o the_o dead_a body_n may_v be_v alter_v and_o dissolve_v into_o dust_n this_o may_v out_o of_o all_o question_n be_v that_o they_o who_o then_o shall_v be_v live_v shall_v not_o sleep_v for_o although_o they_o die_v yet_o their_o death_n shall_v not_o be_v as_o a_o sleep_n but_o rather_o a_o sudden_a slumber_n a_o wink_n or_o nod_n of_o one_o that_o will_v sleep_v nevertheless_a see_v many_o interpreter_n both_o ancient_a and_o modern_a do_v expound_v that_o speech_n of_o saynct_n paul_n otherways_o think_v that_o he_o be_v there_o speak_v of_o

or_o suffer_v death_n therefore_o my_o second_o assertion_n be_v that_o the_o universality_n of_o death_n &_o resurrection_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v with_o a_o exemption_n of_o those_o who_o god_n
