and_o body_n and_o although_o they_o be_v thus_o unite_v yet_o they_o still_o remain_v different_a in_o nature_n one_o from_o another_o and_o so_o can_v be_v change_v one_o into_o another_o to_o this_o i_o answer_v if_o every_o body_n even_o the_o least_o have_v in_o it_o the_o spirit_n of_o all_o animal_n and_o other_o thing_n even_o as_o matter_n be_v say_v to_o have_v in_o it_o all_o form_n now_o i_o demand_v whether_o a_o body_n have_v actual_o all_o those_o spirit_n in_o it_o or_o potential_o only_a if_o actual_o how_o be_v it_o possible_a that_o so_o many_o spirit_n essential_o distinct_a from_o body_n can_v actual_o exist_v in_o their_o distinct_a essence_n in_o so_o small_a a_o body_n even_o in_o the_o least_o that_o can_v be_v conceive_v unless_o it_o be_v by_o intrinseck_n presence_n which_o be_v not_o communicable_a to_o any_o creature_n as_o be_v already_o prove_v for_o if_o all_o kind_n of_o spirit_n be_v in_o any_o even_o the_o least_o body_n how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v that_o such_o a_o animal_n be_v produce_v of_o this_o body_n and_o not_o another_o yea_o how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v that_o all_o kind_n of_o animal_n be_v not_o immediate_o produce_v out_o of_o one_o and_o the_o same_o body_n which_o experience_n deny_v for_o we_o see_v that_o nature_n keep_v her_o order_n in_o all_o her_o operation_n whence_o one_o animal_n be_v form_v of_o another_o and_o one_o species_n proceed_v from_o another_o as_o well_o when_o it_o ascend_v to_o a_o far_a perfection_n as_o when_o it_o descend_v to_o a_o vile_a state_n and_o condition_n but_o if_o they_o say_v all_o spirit_n be_v contain_v in_o any_o body_n not_o actual_o in_o their_o distinct_a essence_n but_o only_o potential_o as_o they_o term_v it_o than_o it_o must_v be_v grant_v that_o the_o body_n and_o all_o those_o spirit_n be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o thing_n that_o be_v that_o a_o body_n may_v be_v turn_v into_o they_o as_o when_o we_o say_v wood_n be_v potential_o fire_n that_o be_v can_v be_v turn_v into_o fire_n water_n be_v potential_o air_n that_o be_v may_v be_v change_v into_o air._n moreover_o if_o spirit_n and_o body_n be_v so_o inseparable_o unite_v that_o no_o body_n can_v be_v without_o a_o spirit_n yea_o not_o without_o many_o spirit_n this_o be_v certain_o a_o great_a argument_n that_o they_o be_v of_o one_o original_a nature_n and_o substance_n otherwise_o we_o can_v not_o conceive_v why_o in_o so_o various_a and_o wonderful_a dissolution_n and_o separation_n of_o thing_n they_o shall_v not_o at_o length_n be_v separt_v one_o from_o another_o as_o we_o see_v the_o subtle_a thing_n may_v be_v separate_v from_o the_o grosser_n but_o whence_o be_v it_o that_o when_o a_o body_n be_v at_o length_n corrupt_v out_o of_o this_o corruption_n another_o species_n of_o thing_n be_v generate_v so_o out_o of_o earth_n and_o water_n corrupt_v proceed_v animal_n yea_o stone_n if_o they_o putrefy_v or_o rot_v pass_v into_o animal_n so_o dung_n or_o other_o putrefy_a matter_n generate_v animal_n all_o which_o have_v spirit_n but_o how_o do_v corruption_n or_o dissolution_n of_o body_n tend_v to_o a_o new_a generation_n and_o that_o indeed_o of_o animal_n if_o it_o be_v say_v the_o spirit_n of_o those_o animal_n be_v as_o it_o be_v loose_v from_o their_o bond_n and_o set_v at_o liberty_n by_o this_o dissolution_n and_o that_o then_o they_o can_v form_v or_o fashion_n to_o themselves_o a_o new_a body_n out_o of_o the_o aforesaid_a matter_n by_o virtue_n of_o their_o plastic_a faculty_n unto_o this_o i_o reply_v how_o do_v the_o primitive_a body_n so_o hold_v it_o captive_n be_v it_o because_o it_o be_v so_o hard_a and_o thick_a if_o so_o it_o will_v be_v manifest_a that_o those_o spirit_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o subtle_a body_n because_o hardness_n and_o density_n of_o body_n can_v imprison_v they_o that_o they_o can_v not_o pass_v out_o for_o if_o a_o spirit_n can_v as_o easy_o penetrate_v the_o hard_a body_n as_o the_o soft_a and_o most_o fluid_a it_o can_v as_o easy_o pass_v out_o of_o the_o one_o as_o the_o other_o nor_o will_v there_o be_v need_n of_o death_n and_o corruption_n to_o a_o new_a life_n or_o generation_n therefore_o this_o kind_n of_o captivity_n of_o spirit_n in_o some_o kind_n of_o hard_a body_n and_o their_o deliverance_n therefrom_o when_o the_o body_n become_v soft_a afford_v we_o a_o manifest_a argument_n that_o spirit_n and_o body_n be_v original_o of_o one_o nature_n and_o substance_n and_o that_o a_o body_n be_v nothing_o but_o a_o fix_a and_o condense_a spirit_n and_o a_o spirit_n nothing_o but_o a_o subtle_a and_o volatile_a body_n and_o here_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o in_o all_o hard_a body_n as_o in_o stone_n whether_o common_a or_o precious_a and_o so_o also_o in_o metal_n herb_n tree_n and_o animal_n yea_o in_o all_o humane_a body_n there_o do_v only_o exist_v many_o spirit_n which_o be_v as_o it_o be_v imprison_v in_o those_o gross_a body_n and_o unite_v with_o they_o and_o therefore_o can_v flow_v forth_o or_o fly_v out_o into_o other_o body_n until_o they_o have_v pass_v death_n or_o dissolution_n but_o also_o many_o other_o very_o subtle_a spirit_n which_o continual_o flow_v from_o they_o and_o which_o by_o reason_n of_o their_o subtlety_n the_o hardness_n of_o the_o body_n in_o which_o they_o lay_v hide_v can_v detain_v and_o these_o spirit_n be_v the_o more_o subtle_a production_n or_o the_o suture_n of_o the_o grosser_n spirit_n detain_v in_o the_o body_n for_o although_o these_o be_v detain_v therein_o yet_o they_o be_v not_o idle_a in_o their_o prison_n but_o their_o body_n be_v as_o it_o be_v shop_n for_o they_o to_o work_v out_o those_o subtle_a spirit_n which_o afterward_o flow_v out_o in_o colour_n sound_n odour_n taste_n and_o divers_a other_o power_n and_o virtue_n whence_o the_o gross_a body_n and_o the_o spirit_n therein_o contain_v be_v as_o it_o be_v the_o mother_n of_o those_o subtle_a spirit_n who_o take_v the_o place_n of_o child_n for_o nature_n still_o work_v to_o a_o far_a perfection_n of_o subtlety_n and_o spirituality_n even_o as_o this_o be_v the_o most_o natural_a property_n of_o all_o motion_n and_o operation_n for_o all_o motion_n wear_v and_o divide_v and_o so_o render_v a_o thing_n subtle_a and_o spiritual_a even_o thus_o in_o man_n body_n the_o meat_n and_o drink_n be_v first_o change_v into_o chyle_n then_o into_o blood_n afterward_o into_o spirit_n which_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o blood_n bring_v to_o perfection_n and_o these_o spirit_n whether_o good_a or_o bad_a still_o advance_v to_o a_o great_a subtlety_n or_o spirituality_n and_o by_o those_o spirit_n which_o come_v from_o the_o blood_n we_o see_v hear_v smell_v taste_n feel_v

certain_a text_n of_o scripture_n as_o well_o of_o the_o old_a as_o new_a testament_n which_o do_v prove_v in_o plain_a and_o express_v word_n that_o all_o thing_n have_v life_n and_o do_v real_o

difference_n as_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v go_v to_o demonstrate_v how_o a_o carpenter_n build_v a_o ship_n or_o a_o house_n by_o a_o example_n of_o god_n create_v the_o first_o matter_n or_o

whereof_o he_o build_v a_o ship_n but_o no_o man_n can_v think_v because_o i_o have_v say_v all_o motion_n of_o creature_n be_v of_o god_n that_o therefore_o he_o be_v or_o can_v be_v the_o author_n or_o cause_n of_o sin_n for_o although_o the_o move_a power_n be_v of_o god_n yet_o sin_n be_v not_o in_o the_o least_o of_o god_n but_o of_o the_o creature_n who_o have_v abuse_v this_o power_n and_o

and_o divers_a other_o perfection_n then_o all_o the_o aforesaid_a difficulty_n will_v vanish_v and_o it_o will_v be_v easy_o conceive_v how_o the_o body_n and_o soul_n be_v unite_v together_o and_o how_o the_o soul_n move_v the_o body_n and_o suffer_v by_o it_o or_o with_o it_o what_o the_o opinion_n of_o the_o hebrew_n be_v appear_v from_o a_o place_n in_o kabbal_n denud_a tom._n 1._o part._n 3._o dissert_n 8._o cap._n 13._o p._n 171._o seq_n §_o 3._o for_o we_o may_v easy_o understand_v how_o one_o body_n be_v unite_v with_o another_o by_o that_o true_a agreement_n that_o one_o have_v with_o another_o in_o its_o own_o nature_n and_o so_o the_o most_o subtle_a and_o spiritual_a body_n may_v be_v unite_v with_o a_o body_n that_o be_v very_o gross_a and_o thick_a sc_n by_o mean_n of_o certain_a body_n partake_v of_o subtlety_n and_o grossness_n according_a to_o divers_a degree_n consist_v between_o two_o extreme_n and_o these_o middle_a body_n be_v indeed_o the_o link_n and_o chain_n by_o which_o the_o soul_n which_o be_v so_o subtle_a and_o spiritual_a be_v conjoin_v with_o a_o body_n so_o gross_a which_o middle_a spirit_n if_o they_o cease_v or_o be_v absent_a the_o union_n be_v break_v or_o dissolve_v so_o from_o the_o same_o foundation_n we_o may_v easy_o understand_v how_o the_o soul_n move_v the_o body_n viz._n as_o one_o subtle_a body_n can_v move_v another_o gross_a and_o thick_a body_n and_o see_v body_n itself_o be_v a_o sensible_a life_n or_o a_o intellectual_a substance_n it_o be_v no_o less_o clear_o conspicuous_a how_o one_o body_n can_v wound_v or_o grieve_v or_o gratify_v or_o please_v another_o because_o thing_n of_o one_o or_o alike_o nature_n can_v easy_o affect_v each_o other_o and_o to_o this_o argument_n may_v be_v reduce_v the_o like_a difficulty_n viz._n how_o spirit_n move_v spirit_n and_o how_o some_o spirit_n strive_v and_o contend_v with_o other_o spirit_n also_o concern_v the_o unity_n concord_n and_o friendship_n which_o good_a spirit_n reverence_v among_o themselves_o for_o if_o all_o spirit_n can_v be_v intrinsical_o present_a one_o with_o another_o how_o can_v they_o dispute_v or_o contend_v about_o place_n and_o how_o can_v one_o expel_v or_o drive_v out_o another_o and_o yet_o that_o there_o be_v such_o a_o expulsion_n and_o conflict_n of_o spirit_n and_o especial_o of_o the_o good_a against_o the_o evil_a some_o few_o who_o have_v be_v acquaint_v with_o their_o own_o heart_n have_v experimental_o know_v if_o it_o be_v say_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o christ_n be_v intrinsical_o present_a in_o all_o thing_n contend_v with_o and_o make_v war_n against_o the_o devil_n and_o his_o spirit_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o man._n i_o answer_v that_o this_o be_v also_o a_o very_a unfit_a similitude_n viz._n when_o god_n and_o creature_n be_v compare_v in_o their_o operation_n for_o his_o way_n be_v infinite_o superior_a to_o we_o yet_o nevertheless_o in_o this_o case_n also_o here_o remain_v a_o strong_a objection_n for_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o christ_n when_o they_o strive_v against_o the_o devil_n and_o the_o evil_a spirit_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n do_v unite_v themselves_o with_o certain_a good_a spirit_n who_o they_o have_v sanctify_v and_o prepare_v for_o this_o union_n and_o by_o these_o as_o a_o vehicle_n or_o triumphant_a chariot_n they_o contend_v against_o and_o encounter_v those_o malignant_a and_o wicked_a spirit_n and_o in_o as_o much_o as_o these_o evil_a spirit_n contend_v against_o those_o good_a spirit_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n they_o contend_v against_o god_n and_o christ_n and_o these_o good_a spirit_n be_v the_o spirit_n of_o this_o faithful_a and_o pious_a man_n who_o be_v become_v good_a when_o as_o before_o he_o be_v evil_a for_o god_n and_o christ_n do_v help_v every_o pious_a man_n to_o prevail_v over_o the_o evil_a spirit_n in_o this_o conflict_n but_o suffer_v the_o wicked_a and_o unfaithful_a to_o be_v

demand_v how_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n can_v be_v unite_v with_o god_n though_o it_o be_v in_o a_o state_n of_o the_o high_a purity_n because_o he_o be_v a_o mere_a spirit_n but_o the_o soul_n even_o in_o its_o great_a purity_n always_o partake_v of_o corporeity_n i_o answer_v it_o be_v do_v by_o jesus_n christ_n who_o be_v the_o true_a and_o proper_a medium_fw-la between_o both_o for_o christ_n

but_o if_o it_o be_v say_v this_o argument_n do_v not_o prove_v that_o all_o spirit_n be_v body_n but_o that_o all_o body_n have_v in_o they_o the_o spirit_n of_o all_o animal_n so_o that_o every_o
