oucrthrowe_n of_o mankind_n a_o enemy_n to_o nature_n the_o breach_n of_o god_n law_n the_o power_n of_o the_o devil_n the_o strength_n of_o god_n wrath_n and_o most_o heavy_a displeasure_n and_o albeit_o that_o death_n as_o i_o have_v say_v be_v derive_v from_o the_o devil_n yet_o it_o be_v also_o attribute_v to_o man_n himself_o to_o leave_v he_o inexcusable_a as_o it_o most_o plain_o appear_v in_o paul_n comparison_n between_o christ_n and_o adam_n as_o by_o the_o offence_n of_o one_o man_n say_v he_o death_n reign_v over_o all_o and_o sin_n come_v on_o all_o to_o condemnation_n so_o by_o christ_n which_o be_v one_o the_o benefit_n of_o grace_n abound_v towards_o all_o man_n to_o justification_n of_o life_n and_o as_o sin_n by_o adam_n reign_v unto_o death_n so_o grace_n reign_v by_o righteousness_n unto_o eternal_a life_n through_o christ_n in_o which_o opposition_n we_o may_v likewise_o see_v death_n attribute_v unto_o all_o through_o adam_n and_o not_o unworthy_o so_o that_o man_n and_o devil_n be_v partner_n in_o sin_n and_o so_o in_o death_n here_o two_o thing_n run_v together_o the_o tempter_n and_o the_o obeyer_n satan_n tempt_v and_o persuade_v of_o envy_n intermingle_v the_o matter_n with_o lie_v and_o slander_v of_o the_o truth_n to_o break_v god_n commandment_n yet_o notwithstanding_o all_o this_o satan_n have_v nothing_o prevail_v have_v man_n resist_v and_o not_o consent_v therefore_o we_o may_v conclude_v that_o in_o respect_n of_o satan_n envy_n and_o root_n of_o his_o evil_a temptation_n and_o lie_v tend_v all_o to_o man_n undoo_n and_o utter_a destruction_n that_o so_o he_o may_v be_v call_v as_o he_o be_v indeed_o the_o auctor_fw-la of_o death_n yet_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o assent_n &_o consent_v of_o man_n in_o

create_v to_o the_o likeness_n of_o god_n himself_o and_o flourish_v with_o free_a will_n which_o as_o then_o he_o possess_v the_o devil_n than_o be_v not_o the_o absolute_a and_o proper_a cause_n of_o sin_n and_o death_n because_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o absolute_a and_o proper_a cause_n be_v such_o that_o it_o go_v before_o the_o effect_n can_v choose_v but_o follow_v but_o it_o fall_v not_o out_o so_o in_o man_n provoke_v of_o the_o devil_n who_o although_o he_o continual_o assail_v and_o most_o vehement_o assault_v god_n child_n to_o sin_n yet_o sin_n do_v not_o always_o follow_v his_o assault_n his_o work_n be_v not_o effectual_a for_o many_o of_o god_n saint_n and_o servant_n very_o mighty_o resist_v he_o be_v arm_v with_o faith_n which_o weapon_n he_o fly_v again_o let_v we_o imagine_v say_v a_o godly_a father_n the_o devil_n himself_o never_o to_o have_v fall_v from_o god_n and_o man_n as_o yet_o to_o have_v stand_v in_o his_o creation_n yet_o man_n by_o nature_n may_v have_v decline_v and_o shall_v have_v have_v indeed_o the_o cause_n of_o sin_n in_o himself_o the_o reason_n be_v this_o god_n give_v he_o free_a will_n and_o so_o leave_v he_o to_o himself_o free_v it_o can_v not_o be_v but_o that_o he_o have_v full_a choice_n of_o good_a and_o evil_n yet_o not_o so_o unarm_v and_o naked_a be_v he_o leave_v but_o that_o god_n give_v he_o power_n and_o strength_n sufficient_a to_o continue_v in_o his_o upright_a state_n albeit_o he_o lean_v too_o much_o one_o way_n and_o slide_v from_o god_n law_n and_o not_o use_v but_o rather_o abuse_v the_o mean_n that_o god_n have_v give_v he_o he_o fall_v of_o himself_o from_o his_o creation_n and_o so_o be_v entangle_v in_o the_o snare_n of_o the_o devil_n death_n and_o everlasting_a condemnation_n so_o that_o in_o this_o supposition_n the_o suggestion_n of_o the_o devil_n be_v not_o simple_o the_o cause_n of_o sin_n and_o death_n the_o devil_n as_o yet_o not_o degenerate_v from_o god_n neither_o also_o have_v the_o devil_n power_n of_o man_n will_n to_o bow_v it_o as_o he_o list_v to_o his_o purpose_n furthermore_o we_o must_v not_o think_v that_o god_n be_v to_o be_v blame_v for_o not_o shut_v all_o gate_n and_o stop_v all_o gap_n tend_v to_o sin_n for_o that_o as_o i_o say_v before_o he_o give_v to_o man_n armour_n sufficient_a to_o defend_v himself_o and_o to_o keep_v he_o from_o fall_v neither_o yet_o be_v it_o unagreeable_a to_o god_n justice_n to_o make_v a_o distinction_n between_o himself_o and_o his_o creature_n for_o that_o he_o himself_o be_v only_o good_a without_o change_n or_o alteration_n all_o his_o creature_n good_a yet_o subject_a to_o change_v yea_o in_o the_o very_a angel_n of_o heaven_n themselves_o in_o respect_n of_o god_n there_o be_v find_v imperfection_n the_o cherubin_n hide_v their_o face_n with_o their_o wing_n for_o the_o brightness_n of_o his_o glory_n thus_o do_v god_n humble_a all_o his_o creature_n to_o exalte_n himself_o to_o teach_v they_o this_o not_o to_o go_v from_o he_o of_o who_o they_o have_v and_o have_v their_o goodness_n nor_o to_o lean_v only_o to_o themselves_o though_o by_o creation_n good_a yet_o subject_a to_o corruption_n though_o man_n nature_n say_v augustine_n be_v upright_o and_o sound_a and_o nothing_o sinful_a yet_o it_o be_v capable_a of_o sin_n &_o apt_a to_o receive_v corruption_n though_o man_n in_o his_o nature_n be_v immortal_a stand_v in_o his_o state_n yet_o be_v he_o inclinable_a to_o mortality_n as_o for_o example_n we_o see_v our_o flesh_n apt_a to_o receive_v a_o wound_n yet_o every_o one_o be_v not_o wound_v the_o body_n of_o man_n be_v subject_a to_o sieknesse_n yet_o many_o often_o die_v not_o subject_a to_o sickness_n so_o the_o state_n of_o adam_n body_n be_v such_o that_o although_o he_o may_v have_v dye_v yet_o except_o sin_n have_v come_v between_o he_o may_v and_o shall_v have_v be_v preserve_v of_o god_n from_o death_n even_o as_o the_o hose_n and_o shoe_n of_o the_o hebrew_n in_o the_o desert_n by_o god_n mighty_a power_n never_o wax_v old_a by_o wear_v or_o consumption_n therefore_o to_o hedge_v up_o this_o gap_n man_n be_v subject_a to_o death_n by_o nature_n yet_o not_o necessary_o as_o though_o he_o see_v no_o way_n to_o shun_v it_o for_o now_o i_o go_v no_o further_o than_o man_n knowledge_n set_v god_n election_n and_o secret_a

think_v it_o no_o yoke_n or_o slavery_n to_o observe_v it_o his_o shoulder_n and_o other_o part_n be_v strong_a enough_o to_o sustain_v it_o sin_n therefore_o we_o may_v see_v have_v diminish_v our_o

sin_n and_o so_o of_o death_n although_o indeed_o as_o augustine_n allege_v a_o ill_a thing_n have_v no_o cause_n efficient_a but_o rather_o deficient_a and_o if_o any_o man_n say_v he_o will_v go_v about_o over_o curious_o to_o search_v out_o the_o efficient_a cause_n of_o death_n it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v labour_v with_o his_o eye_n to_o see_v darkness_n or_o to_o bend_v the_o sense_n of_o his_o ear_n to_o hear_v silencc_fw-la which_o since_o they_o be_v of_o themselves_o mere_a deprivation_n have_v no_o essence_n in_o nature_n though_o existent_a in_o some_o
