platonic_n though_o in_o their_o write_n it_o be_v but_o gold_n in_o oar_n less_o pure_a and_o perfect_a but_o a_o late_a great_a artist_n have_v excellent_o refine_v it_o and_o i_o have_v not_o much_o work_n to_o do_v but_o to_o bring_v together_o what_o he_o up_o and_o down_o have_v scatter_v and_o by_o a_o method-order_n and_o some_o connexion_n and_o notion_n of_o my_o own_o to_o work_v it_o into_o a_o entire_a and_o uniform_a mass_n now_o because_o the_o frame_n of_o the_o particular_a hypothesis_n be_v original_o philosophical_a i_o shall_v therefore_o not_o deprave_v it_o by_o mingle_v with_o it_o the_o opinion_n of_o modern_a theologer_n or_o distort_v any_o thing_n to_o make_v it_o accommodate_v to_o their_o dogmata_fw-la but_o sole_o and_o sincere_o follow_v the_o light_n of_o reason_n and_o philosophy_n for_o i_o intend_v not_o to_o endeavour_v the_o late_a alteration_n of_o the_o ordinary_a system_a of_o divinity_n nor_o design_v any_o thing_n in_o this_o place_n but_o a_o representation_n of_o some_o harmless_a philosophical_a conjecture_n in_o which_o i_o shall_v continual_o guide_v myself_o by_o the_o attribute_n of_o god_n the_o phaenomena_n of_o the_o world_n and_o the_o best_a discovery_n of_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o soul_n chap._n xiii_o 7_o pillar_n on_o which_o the_o particular_a hypothesis_n stand_v now_o the_o fabric_n we_o be_v go_v to_o build_v will_v stand_v like_a as_o the_o house_n of_o wisdom_n upon_o seven_o pillar_n which_o i_o shall_v first_o crect_v and_o establish_v that_o the_o hypothesis_n may_v be_v firm_a and_o sure_a like_o a_o house_n that_o have_v foundation_n therefore_o the_o first_o fundamental_a principle_n i_o shall_v lay_v be_v 1_o all_o the_o divine_a design_n and_o action_n be_v lay_v and_o carry_v on_o by_o pure_a and_o infinite_a goodness_n and_o methinks_v this_o shall_v be_v own_v by_o all_o for_o a_o manifest_a and_o indisputable_a truth_n but_o some_o odd_a opinion_n in_o the_o world_n be_v a_o interest_n against_o it_o and_o therefore_o i_o must_v be_v fain_o to_o prove_v it_o brief_o then_o every_o rational_a be_v act_n towards_o scme_n end_n or_o other_o that_o end_n where_o the_o agent_n act_v regular_o and_o wise_o be_v either_o some_o self-good_a or_o accomplishment_n or_o it_o be_v the_o good_a and_o perfection_n of_o some_o thing_n else_o at_o least_o in_o the_o intention_n now_o god_n be_v a_o absolute_a and_o immense_a fullness_n that_o be_v incapable_a of_o any_o the_o least_o shadow_n of_o new_a perfection_n can_v act_v for_o any_o good_a that_o may_v accrue_v to_o his_o immutable_a self_n and_o consequent_o what_o ever_o he_o act_v be_v for_o the_o good_a of_o some_o other_o be_v so_o that_o all_o the_o divine_a action_n be_v the_o communication_n of_o his_o perfection_n and_o the_o issue_n of_o his_o goodness_n which_o be_v without_o the_o base_a alloy_n of_o self-interest_n or_o partial_a fondness_n and_o not_o comprise_v within_o any_o bound_n or_o limit_n as_o his_o other_o perfection_n be_v not_o but_o far_o beyond_o our_o narrow_a conception_n we_o may_v well_o call_v it_o pure_a and_o insinite_a benignity_n this_o be_v the_o original_n and_o root_n of_o all_o thing_n so_o that_o this_o bless_a ever_o bless_a attribute_n be_v the_o spring_n and_o fountain_n of_o all_o the_o action_n of_o the_o deity_n his_o design_n can_v be_v no_o other_o but_o the_o contrivance_n of_o love_n for_o the_o compass_v the_o good_a and_o perfection_n of_o the_o universe_n therefore_o to_o suppose_v god_n to_o act_n or_o design_n any_o thing_n that_o be_v not_o for_o the_o good_a or_o his_o creature_n be_v either_o to_o fancy_n he_o to_o act_v for_o no_o end_n at_o all_o or_o for_o a_o end_n that_o be_v contrary_a to_o his_o benign_a nature_n final_o therefore_o the_o very_a notion_n of_o infinite_a fullness_n be_v to_o be_v communicate_v and_o overflow_a and_o the_o most_o congruous_a apprehension_n that_o we_o can_v entertain_v of_o the_o infinite_a and_o eternal_a deity_n be_v to_o conceive_v he_o as_o a_o immense_a and_o all_o glorious_a sun_n that_o be_v continual_o communicate_v and_o send_v abroad_o its_o beam_n and_o brightness_n which_o conception_n of_o our_o maker_n if_o it_o be_v deep_o imprint_v on_o we_o will_v i_o be_o confident_a set_v our_o apprehension_n right_a in_o many_o theorye_n and_o chase_v away_o those_o black_a and_o dismal_a notion_n which_o too_o many_o have_v give_v harbour_n to_o but_o i_o come_v to_o erect_v the_o second_o pillar_n 2_o then_o there_o be_v a_o exact_a geometrical_a justice_n that_o run_v through_o the_o universe_n and_o be_v interweave_v in_o the_o contexture_n of_o thing_n this_o be_v a_o result_n of_o that_o wise_a and_o almighty_a goodness_n that_o praesides_fw-la over_o all_o thing_n for_o this_o justice_n be_v but_o the_o distribute_v to_o every_o thing_n according_a to_o the_o requirement_n of_o its_o nature_n and_o that_o benign_a wisdom_n that_o contrive_v and_o frame_v the_o nature_n of_o all_o being_n doubtless_o so_o provide_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v suitable_o furnish_v with_o all_o thing_n proper_a for_o their_o respective_a condition_n and_o that_o this_o nemesis_n shall_v be_v twist_v into_o the_o very_a natural_a coustitution_n of_o thing_n themselves_o be_v methinks_v very_o reasonable_a since_o questionless_a almighty_a wisdom_n can_v so_o perfect_o have_v form_v his_o work_n at_o first_o as_o that_o all_o thing_n that_o he_o see_v be_v regular_a just_a and_o for_o the_o good_a of_o the_o universe_n shall_v have_v be_v bring_v about_o by_o those_o state_v law_n which_o we_o call_v nature_n without_o a_o ordinary_a engagement_n of_o absolute_a power_n to_o effect_v they_o and_o it_o seem_v to_o i_o to_o be_v very_o become_v the_o wise_a author_n of_o all_o thing_n so_o to_o have_v make_v they_o in_o the_o beginning_n as_o that_o by_o their_o own_o internal_a spring_n and_o wheel_n they_o shall_v orderly_o bring_v about_o what_o ever_o he_o intend_v they_o for_o without_o his_o often_o immediaie_v interposal_n for_o this_o look_n like_o a_o more_o magnificient_a apprehension_n of_o the_o divine_a power_n and_o praeexistence_n since_o it_o suppose_v he_o from_o everlasting_a age_n to_o have_v foresee_v all_o future_a occurrence_n &_o so_o wonderful_o to_o have_v see_v and_o constitute_v the_o great_a machina_fw-la of_o the_o world_n that_o the_o infinite_a variety_n of_o motion_n therein_o shall_v effect_v nothing_o but_o what_o in_o his_o eternal_a wisdom_n he_o have_v conclude_v fit_a and_o decorous_a but_o as_o for_o that_o which_o be_v so_o it_o shall_v as_o certain_o be_v compass_v by_o the_o law_n he_o appoint_v long_o ago_o as_o if_o his_o omnipotence_n be_v at_o work_v every_o moment_n on_o the_o contrary_a to_o engage_v god_n absolute_a and_o extraordinary_a power_n in_o all_o event_n and_o occurrence_n of_o thing_n be_v i_o seem_v to_o think_v mean_o of_o his_o wisdom_n as_o if_o he_o have_v make_v the_o world_n so_o as_o that_o it_o shall_v need_v omnipotence_n every_o now_o &_o then_o to_o mend_v it_o or_o to_o bring_v about_o those_o his_o destination_n which_o by_o a_o short_a way_n he_o can_v have_v effect_v by_o his_o instrument_n nature_n can_v any_o one_o say_v that_o our_o supposition_n derogate_v from_o the_o divine_a concourse_n or_o providence_n for_o on_o these_o depend_v continual_o both_o the_o be_v and_o operation_n of_o all_o thing_n since_o without_o they_o they_o will_v cease_v to_o act_v and_o return_v to_o their_o old_a nothing_o and_o doubtless_o god_n have_v not_o give_v the_o order_n of_o thing_n out_o of_o his_o own_o hand_n but_o hold_v the_o power_n to_o alter_v innovate_v or_o change_v the_o course_n of_o nature_n as_o he_o please_v and_o to_o act_v by_o extraordinary_a by_o absolute_a omnipotence_n when_o he_o think_v fit_a to_o do_v so_o the_o sum_n of_o what_o i_o intend_v be_v that_o god_n work_n be_v perfect_a and_o as_o his_o goodness_n be_v discover_v in_o they_o so_o be_v his_o justice_n wrought_v into_o their_o very_a essential_a constitution_n so_o that_o we_o need_v not_o suppose_v he_o to_o be_v immediate_o engage_v in_o every_o event_n and_o all_o distribution_n of_o thing_n in_o the_o world_n or_o upon_o all_o occasion_n to_o exercise_v his_o power_n in_o extraordinary_a action_n but_o that_o he_o leave_v such_o management_n to_o the_o oeconomy_n of_o second_o cause_n and_o now_o next_o to_o this_o for_o they_o be_v of_o kin_n i_o
