the_o earth_n though_o angelic_a spirit_n be_v original_o place_v in_o the_o superior_a world_n heaven_n be_v their_o first_o habitation_n yet_o the_o human_a body_n be_v lodge_v in_o the_o earth_n at_o its_o first_o formation_n this_o be_v the_o place_n of_o its_o residence_n and_o must_v be_v while_n in_o its_o present_a state_n and_o condition_n flesh_n and_o blood_n can_v inherit_v the_o

those_o excellent_a quality_n which_o will_v fit_v they_o for_o such_o a_o noble_a region_n therefore_o so_o long_o as_o our_o soul_n continue_v in_o our_o body_n they_o have_v but_o a_o earthly_a lodging_n though_o their_o motion_n and_o operation_n may_v reach_v to_o heaven_n yet_o their_o essential_a residence_n be_v in_o the_o earth_n on_o this_o account_n while_o we_o be_v present_a in_o the_o body_n we_o be_v absent_a from_o the_o lord_n 2_o cor._n 5.16_o while_o we_o dwell_v in_o this_o tabernacle_n we_o sojourn_v in_o a_o pollute_a and_o troublesome_a world_n a_o place_n to_o which_o sin_n have_v introduce_v the_o great_a disorder_n and_o confusion_n where_o iniquity_n abound_v and_o where_o many_o occasion_n of_o grief_n be_v continual_o minister_v to_o we_o a_o vale_n of_o tear_n a_o field_n of_o war_n a_o stage_n of_o contention_n and_o a_o waste_n and_o howl_a wilderness_n 3._o upon_o the_o account_n of_o those_o mean_n whereby_o it_o be_v support_v and_o

immoderate_a degree_n be_v nothing_o better_o than_o earth_n a_o earthly_a body_n be_v only_o capable_a of_o earthly_a enjoyment_n 4._o upon_o the_o account_n of_o its_o disposure_n and_o resolution_n when_o death_n rend_v the_o soul_n from_o the_o embrace_n of_o the_o body_n than_o the_o dust_n return_v to_o the_o earth_n as_o it_o be_v eccles_n 12.7_o it_o be_v turn_v into_o common_a earth_n

second_o thing_n contain_v in_o the_o word_n viz._n a_o implicit_a assertion_n of_o its_o dissolution_n if_o it_o be_v dissolve_v though_o the_o conditional_a conjunction_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d if_o be_v here_o make_v use_n of_o yet_o it_o do_v not_o import_v any_o hesitation_n or_o doubt_n in_o the_o apostle_n mind_n concern_v the_o dissolution_n of_o his_o body_n as_o if_o it_o be_v

so_o the_o word_n may_v be_v render_v thus_o when_o our_o earthly_a house_n of_o this_o tabernacle_n shall_v be_v dissolve_v we_o find_v that_o this_o particle_n have_v the_o same_o signification_n joh._n 16.7_o 1_o joh._n 3.2_o so_o that_o these_o word_n do_v amount_v to_o a_o assertion_n of_o the_o body_n dissolution_n for_o what_o comfort_n can_v arise_v to_o the_o apostle_n and_o his_o

or_o other_o they_o shall_v be_v dissolve_v we_o read_v of_o a_o twofold_a dissolution_n make_v by_o death_n in_o sacred_a writ_n viz._n a_o dissolution_n of_o the_o person_n or_o the_o man_n phil._n 1.23_o i_o desire_v to_o depart_v or_o as_o the_o original_a word_n may_v proper_o be_v render_v to_o be_v dissolve_v this_o consist_v in_o the_o separation_n of_o the_o soul_n from_o the_o body_n and_o a_o dissolution_n of_o the_o body_n in_o my_o text._n this_o be_v a_o metaphor_n take_v from_o the_o destruction_n of_o building_n the_o overthrow_n of_o earthly_a fabric_n when_o a_o

dissolution_n 1._o the_o continuance_n of_o its_o matter_n after_o death_n when_o a_o house_n be_v demolish_v though_o it_o lose_v its_o form_n yet_o the_o matter_n still_o remain_v it_o be_v not_o annihilate_v the_o matter_n of_o the_o human_a body_n pass_v through_o various_a change_n after_o death_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o reduce_v to_o nothing_o for_o if_o it_o be_v at_o the_o great_a day_n there_o can_v not_o be_v a_o resurrection_n but_o a_o new_a creation_n of_o human_a body_n whereas_o the_o scripture_n assure_v we_o that_o the_o same_o body_n which_o die_v shall_v live_v and_o rise_v again_o though_o it_o may_v be_v accidental_o and_o with_o respect_n to_o its_o quality_n another_o body_n yet_o it_o will_v be_v essential_o and_o with_o respect_n to_o its_o substance_n the_o same_o 2._o the_o destruction_n of_o its_o form_n when_o a_o building_n fall_v its_o form_n be_v lose_v though_o its_o matter_n remain_v the_o same_o effect_n do_v death_n produce_v in_o the_o body_n herein_o these_o two_o thing_n may_v be_v comprehend_v 1._o the_o loss_n of_o its_o beauty_n and_o comeliness_n what_o beauty_n be_v there_o in_o the_o rubbish_n of_o the_o most_o splendid_a and_o stately_a palace_n sure_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o it_o that_o can_v attract_v the_o admiration_n and_o esteem_n of_o those_o who_o behold_v it_o they_o who_o delight_v to_o view_v and_o walk_v in_o a_o house_n while_o stand_v will_v turn_v their_o eye_n from_o its_o ruin_n the_o beauty_n of_o the_o most_o amiable_a body_n become_v a_o prey_n to_o death_n when_o it_o be_v seize_v by_o this_o mighty_a conqueror_n death_n draw_v a_o dismal_a veil_n over_o all_o its_o glory_n and_o make_v very_o unlovely_a and_o deform_a impression_n on_o it_o the_o body_n of_o our_o decease_a relative_n which_o we_o former_o behold_v with_o great_a delight_n will_v be_v now_o very_o unpleasant_a spectacle_n to_o we_o we_o can_v without_o regret_n turn_v our_o eye_n towards_o the_o corpse_n of_o our_o dear_a friend_n but_o be_v willing_a soon_o to_o bury_v it_o out_o of_o our_o sight_n 2._o the_o loss_n of_o its_o excellency_n and_o usefulness_n what_o value_n be_v there_o in_o the_o rubbish_n of_o a_o fall_v sructure_n which_o while_n stand_v be_v worth_a many_o thousand_o or_o what_o use_n can_v it_o serve_v for_o though_o a_o live_a body_n be_v exceed_o valuable_a yet_o a_o dead_a body_n be_v of_o no_o more_o worth_a than_o common_a earth_n and_o it_o be_v as_o useless_a and_o unprofitable_a the_o eye_n tongue_n hand_n and_o foot_n which_o be_v all_o active_a member_n and_o perform_v many_o operation_n when_o seize_v by_o death_n become_v whole_o unactive_a they_o lose_v their_o motion_n and_o activity_n when_o bind_v with_o its_o adamantine_a chain_n and_o fetter_n those_o body_n of_o our_o relation_n which_o be_v very_o serviceable_a to_o we_o while_n in_o the_o land_n of_o the_o live_n can_v do_v we_o no_o good_a when_o number_v among_o the_o dead_a 3._o in_o the_o dissolution_n of_o the_o body_n may_v be_v imply_v its_o entrance_n into_o the_o grave_a and_o corrupt_v there_o a_o stand_a house_n be_v raise_v above_o the_o ground_n but_o a_o fall_v house_n lie_v
