hitherto_o dispute_v between_o we_o but_o the_o best_a proof_n which_o he_o bring_v thereof_o be_v his_o own_o supposal_n that_o the_o apostle_n know_v it_o to_o be_v so_o separable_a and_o thereupon_o he_o say_v the_o apostle_n think_v there_o be_v some_o such_o part_n of_o himself_o as_o may_v be_v separable_a from_o his_o body_n for_o no_o man_n can_v ever_o doubt_v the_o be_v of_o a_o thing_n which_o he_o know_v be_v uncapable_a to_o be_v and_o hereupon_o he_o think_v the_o apostle_n do_v evident_o suppose_v his_o soul_n be_v capable_a of_o be_v out_o of_o the_o body_n which_o amount_v to_o thus_o much_o that_o he_o suppose_v the_o apostle_n suppose_v the_o thing_n to_o be_v as_o he_o will_v have_v it_o whereas_o in_o the_o text_n we_o find_v no_o mention_n of_o such_o

from_o another_o spring_v from_o his_o own_o pregnant_a invention_n without_o find_v any_o good_a ground_n for_o it_o in_o the_o text_n or_o that_o st._n paul_n do_v by_o his_o word_n either_o in_o
