participate_v something_o of_o the_o temperate_a heat_n and_o a_o sufficient_a moisture_n to_o nourish_v the_o heat_n be_v the_o most_o proper_a of_o all_o the_o complexion_n to_o conduce_v to_o long_a life_n as_o for_o the_o choleric_a that_o continue_v less_o because_o the_o force_n and_o vivacity_n of_o its_o fire_n and_o heat_n can_v long_o endure_v with_o the_o drought_n the_o phlegmatic_a and_o waterish_a can_v be_v digest_v by_o the_o heat_n because_o of_o it_o excessive_a moisture_n and_o so_o it_o easy_o corrupt_v which_o in_o the_o end_n cause_v death_n the_o melancholy_a be_v earthy_a shorten_v the_o life_n by_o its_o cold_a disposition_n and_o dryness_n which_o be_v contrary_a quality_n to_o heat_n and_o moisture_n wherefore_o it_o be_v not_o marvel_v if_o they_o shorten_v the_o life_n where_o they_o abound_v in_o any_o body_n nevertheless_o if_o choler_n be_v mingle_v with_o phlegm_n and_o that_o it_o do_v surmount_v proportionable_o the_o phlegm_n this_o complexion_n be_v abide_v enough_o to_o yield_v long_a life_n also_o when_o the_o blood_n surpass_v melancholy_a in_o a_o good_a proportion_n this_o complexion_n be_v good_a for_o the_o heat_n and_o moisture_n of_o the_o blood_n temper_v the_o cold_a and_o dryness_n of_o the_o melancholy_n and_o so_o there_o be_v compound_v complexion_n which_o be_v much_o better_a than_o the_o simple_a sanguine_a to_o yield_v long_a life_n by_o that_o which_o be_v aforesaid_a we_o may_v see_v that_o the_o life_n of_o man_n be_v limit_v by_o the_o virtue_n and_o power_n of_o his_o complexion_n and_o by_o the_o proportion_n of_o the_o elementary_a qaality_n in_o such_o fort_n that_o the_o diversity_n of_o proportion_n cause_n a_o diversity_n of_o term_n or_o time_n to_o the_o life_n of_o man_n so_o it_o be_v say_v that_o a_o man_n may_v live_v as_o long_o as_o his_o natural_a heat_n last_v and_o radical_a moisture_n be_v maintain_v and_o whereas_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o life_n of_o man_n be_v limit_v beyond_o which_o it_o be_v unpossible_a to_o pass_v we_o must_v note_v that_o although_o the_o complexion_n and_o natural_a perfection_n of_o a_o man_n may_v bring_v he_o and_o support_v he_o even_o to_o the_o last_o period_n yet_o nevertheless_o of_o a_o thousand_o scarce_a one_o attain_v to_o that_o point_n for_o there_o be_v so_o many_o disaster_n which_o accidental_o happen_v either_o by_o some_o disorder_n that_o the_o most_o part_n die_v before_o nature_n fail_v they_o be_v it_o by_o famine_n plague_n poison_n gluttony_n whoredom_n ill_a diet_n or_o by_o disease_n cause_v by_o infinite_a excess_n and_o so_o the_o true_a natural_a term_n of_o the_o life_n of_o man_n be_v when_o nature_n fail_v so_o that_o it_o be_v unpossible_a to_o pass_v that_o point_n of_o time_n and_o so_o we_o must_v understand_v that_o passage_n in_o job_n where_o it_o be_v say_v lord_n thou_o have_v establish_v the_o bound_n which_o it_o be_v unposible_a for_o he_o to_o go_v beyond_o by_o this_o passage_n we_o may_v clear_o see_v that_o man_n may_v shorten_v his_o life_n but_o not_o lengthen_v it_o so_o that_o we_o see_v many_o of_o good_a complexion_n that_o may_v live_v a_o great_a number_n of_o year_n which_o nevertheless_o be_v short_a live_v by_o some_o exterior_a cause_n which_o hasten_v their_o day_n yet_o this_o passage_n of_o job_n may_v be_v otherwise_o understand_v in_o regard_n of_o god_n foreknowledge_n who_o appoint_v to_o every_o one_o the_o term_n of_o hit_v life_n be_v it_o by_o his_o natural_a complexion_n or_o by_o some_o other_o end_n that_o he_o have_v assign_v to_o the_o life_n of_o man_n and_o because_o there_o be_v nothing_o hide_v from_o the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n who_o know_v all_o the_o accidental_a cause_n which_o may_v happen_v to_o man_n it_o be_v impossible_a for_o man_n to_o lengthen_v his_o life_n beyond_o what_o god_n have_v ordain_v although_o the_o cause_n be_v contingent_a and_o so_o one_o may_v say_v there_o be_v two_o term_n of_o a_o man_n life_n the_o one_o whereof_o depend_v upon_o the_o harmony_n and_o proportion_n of_o the_o elementary_a quality_n the_o other_o be_v according_a to_o the_o preordination_n and_o foreknowledge_n of_o god_n between_o which_o term_n there_o be_v only_o this_o difference_n that_o one_o may_v arrive_v even_o at_o the_o first_o though_o not_o go_v beyond_o it_o but_o all_o come_v to_o the_o second_o and_o although_o by_o course_n of_o nature_n one_o may_v pass_v the_o second_o yet_o nevertheless_o there_o be_v none_o that_o ever_o pass_v it_o chap._n xxxiiii_o how_o great_a the_o mischief_n be_v to_o desire_v a_o revelation_n of_o thing_n in_o the_o life_n to_o come_v even_o as_o god_n who_o have_v creat_v we_o without_o we_o will_v not_o save_v we_o without_o we_o so_o have_v he_o give_v we_o the_o ground_n of_o the_o mean_n of_o our_o salvation_n which_o be_v faith_n with_o hope_n of_o the_o riches_n which_o he_o have_v promise_v we_o in_o the_o life_n to_o come_v by_o a_o ancient_a decree_n which_o be_v reveal_v unto_o we_o by_o his_o only_a son_n which_o we_o can_v obtain_v without_o believe_v and_o hope_v in_o he_o but_o man_n weakness_n or_o to_o say_v rather_o the_o faith_n of_o man_n be_v so_o weak_a that_o when_o it_o be_v preach_v unto_o he_o the_o glory_n that_o god_n have_v provide_v for_o he_o hereafter_o he_o will_v say_v he_o believe_v it_o but_o nevertheless_o he_o will_v say_v it_o be_v a_o great_a matter_n of_o so_o many_o man_n that_o be_v dead_a there_o be_v not_o one_o return_v to_o tell_v we_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o other_o world_n the_o great_a sign_n of_o unbelief_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n be_v in_o my_o judgement_n this_o great_a desire_n to_o have_v revelation_n from_o the_o other_o world_n for_o see_v that_o faith_n consist_v in_o believe_v and_o hope_v for_o thing_n that_o be_v not_o see_v if_o they_o be_v reveal_v unto_o we_o there_o be_v no_o more_o faith_n and_o so_o this_o singular_a mean_n of_o our_o salvation_n be_v take_v from_o we_o again_o i_o say_v further_o that_o not_o only_o by_o this_o revelation_n faith_n will_v be_v destroy_v but_o also_o it_o will_v be_v a_o occasion_n to_o make_v we_o run_v into_o great_a error_n against_o god_n as_o we_o may_v easy_o judge_v by_o this_o argument_n put_v the_o case_n that_o our_o father_n mother_n or_o brother_n after_o death_n shall_v return_v into_o this_o world_n and_o be_v clothe_v with_o the_o same_o flesh_n they_o have_v leave_v behind_o they_o and_o that_o we_o shall_v certain_o believe_v they_o be_v the_o same_o and_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v conversant_a drink_n and_o eat_v with_o we_o as_o our_o saviour_n do_v with_o his_o apostle_n that_o they_o may_v not_o be_v in_o doubt_n he_o be_v a_o spirit_n or_o a_o shadow_n and_o that_o this_o our_o brother_n etc._n etc._n shall_v reveal_v unto_o we_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o other_o world_n there_o be_v no_o doubt_n but_o we_o shall_v hearken_v to_o he_o and_o without_o all_o question_n believe_v that_o whidh_fw-mi he_o say_v to_o be_v true_a now_o this_o must_v be_v a_o man_n because_o he_o have_v soul_n and_o body_n and_o believe_v he_o we_o believe_v a_o man_n which_o by_o nature_n a_o liar_n so_o by_o this_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o give_v he_o credit_n we_o shall_v rather_o believe_v a_o man_n by_o nature_n a_o liar_n than_o god_n who_o be_v sovereign_a and_o pass_a truth_n and_o can_v lie_v who_o have_v tell_v we_o and_o often_o repeat_v the_o reward_n which_o be_v prepare_v hereafter_o for_o the_o good_a and_o the_o punishment_n for_o the_o wicked_a there_o be_v none_o then_o but_o will_v confess_v that_o this_o be_v a_o grievous_a sin_n if_o we_o shall_v give_v credit_n to_o this_o revelation_n so_o much_o desire_v by_o man_n believe_v rather_o the_o creature_n than_o the_o creator_n let_v not_o man_n then_o be_v any_o more_o desirous_a to_o know_v that_o which_o may_v turn_v to_o his_o damnation_n and_o that_o he_o consider_v that_o all_o that_o god_n give_v or_o all_o that_o god_n deny_v we_o be_v for_o our_o good_a which_o he_o seek_v more_o than_o ourselves_o and_o
