they_o do_v not_o full_o agree_v the_o first_o be_v of_o some_o that_o consider_a divinity_n to_o be_v medicina_fw-la animarum_fw-la borrow_v term_n from_o the_o physic_n of_o the_o body_n which_o they_o accommodate_v to_o this_o and_o part_v it_o proportion_n able_o into_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d of_o man_n misery_n by_o nature_n and_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d of_o his_o recovery_n by_o christ_n from_o which_o the_o common_a method_n in_o vrfin_n differ_v but_o little_a this_o suppose_v man_n fall_n or_o begin_v with_o it_o and_o therefore_o i_o think_v either_o omit_v something_o necessary_a or_o else_o incur_v a_o necessary_a confusion_n of_o those_o thing_n which_o will_v better_o be_v more_o distinct_o handle_v the_o second_o i_o find_v in_o a_o learned_a author_n estius_n in_o his_o preface_n upon_o the_o sentence_n who_o divide_v it_o into_o theologia_n prima_fw-la that_o treat_v of_o man_n in_o his_o first_o estate_n of_o integrity_n and_o theologia_n secunda_fw-la that_o consider_v he_o after_o his_o fall_n as_o to_o be_v guide_v to_o his_o happiness_n and_o this_o come_v a_o degree_n near_o to_o that_o i_o propound_v than_o the_o former_a because_o it_o mention_n both_o estate_n and_o handle_v they_o and_o yet_o it_o seem_v short_a by_o one_o degree_n the_o three_o come_v up_o yet_o close_a and_o you_o shall_v find_v it_o in_o trelcatius_n who_o divide_v divinity_n thus_o there_o be_v two_o part_n first_o de_fw-fr causis_fw-la salutis_fw-la nostrae_fw-la eoque_fw-la de_fw-la dei_fw-la operibus_fw-la second_o de_fw-la

conditione_n subjecti_fw-la multiplici_fw-la in_o quo_fw-la est_fw-la where_o you_o see_v you_o have_v the_o same_o distribution_n of_o that_o i_o give_v and_o in_o the_o same_o formality_n of_o term_n almost_o and_o this_o superad_n a_o degree_n to_o the_o former_a which_o i_o think_v be_v necessary_a the_o first_o take_v man_n as_o he_o be_v now_o fall_v and_o so_o apply_v mean_n for_o recovery_n of_o his_o happiness_n the_o second_o consider_v both_o of_o his_o stand_a first_o and_o then_o his_o fall_n this_o three_o abstract_n what_o be_v common_a to_o both_o estate_n what_o be_v the_o common_a nature_n of_o his_o happiness_n and_o so_o descend_v to_o the_o particular_a accommodation_n thereof_o according_a to_o the_o difference_n of_o his_o condition_n and_o this_o i_o think_v be_v full_a enough_o and_o large_a in_o extent_n to_o comprehend_v all_o thing_n that_o this_o doctrine_n be_v to_o meddle_v with_o and_o i_o will_v use_v no_o other_o reason_n to_o prove_v it_o because_o i_o think_v it_o carry_v some_o evidence_n of_o truth_n or_o at_o least_o probability_n with_o it_o especial_o suppose_v the_o ground_n former_o lay_v but_o only_o that_o it_o be_v draw_v out_o of_o the_o definition_n with_o such_o facility_n that_o it_o appear_v to_o be_v a_o natural_a distribution_n the_o doctrine_n of_o man_n happiness_n have_v two_o part_n first_o of_o happiness_n in_o itself_o in_o general_a second_o of_o man_n happiness_n in_o reference_n to_o the_o proper_a subject_n and_o now_o i_o proceed_v to_o some_o few_o principal_a subdivision_n to_o give_v you_o a_o view_n and_o synopsis_n of_o the_o whole_a art_n happiness_n in_o general_n have_v two_o thing_n in_o it_o to_o be_v consider_v first_o the_o part_n or_o degree_n or_o affection_n for_o i_o desire_v you_o to_o remember_v that_o i_o be_o not_o curious_a for_o term_n second_o the_o kind_n of_o happiness_n the_o part_n or_o degree_n be_v two_o first_o the_o constitution_n of_o

in_o two_o thing_n especial_o first_o the_o gracious_a administration_n of_o all_o thing_n without_o a_o man_n by_o god_n in_o ordine_fw-la ad_fw-la felicitatem_fw-la for_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o man_n shall_v natare_fw-la sine_fw-la cortice_fw-la and_o attain_v to_o his_o own_o svo_fw-la marti_fw-la by_o his_o own_o endeavour_n without_o god_n providence_n support_v he_o and_o suggest_v all_o necessary_n to_o he_o there_o be_v the_o same_o proportion_n between_o he_o and_o god_n in_o this_o case_n that_o there_o be_v between_o inferior_a creature_n and_o man_n and_o therefore_o as_o it_o be_v in_o architecture_n and_o such_o like_a art_n which_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o natural_a aptitude_n of_o the_o subject_n may_v be_v speculative_a but_o in_o regard_n of_o
