one_o person_n which_o be_v two_o person_n or_o something_o as_o like_v two_o person_n as_o their_o nature_n will_v permit_v when_o they_o subsist_v apart_o and_o i_o shall_v have_v think_v such_o a_o

to_o a_o fair_a state_n and_o a_o easy_a decision_n of_o this_o question_n for_o if_o personality_n belong_v only_o to_o a_o reasonable_a nature_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o the_o soul_n make_v or_o

and_o so_o become_v part_n of_o the_o man_n and_o part_n of_o the_o person_n as_o belong_v to_o it_o i_o be_o of_o opinion_n notwithstanding_o the_o animadverter_n animus_fw-la &_o anima_fw-la that_o there_o be_v but_o one_o soul_n or_o mind_n or_o spirit_n in_o man_n which_o perform_v all_o the_o office_n of_o a_o rational_a and_o animal_n life_n which_o understand_v reason_n will_n and_o feel_v all_o the_o impression_n of_o the_o body_n whether_o pain_n or_o pleasure_n though_o with_o respect_n to_o such_o different_a office_n and_o power_n it_o may_v be_v of_o some_o use_n both_o in_o

though_o the_o soul_n when_o unite_v to_o a_o body_n be_v not_o the_o whole_a person_n for_o the_o person_n reach_v as_o far_o as_o the_o self-conscious_a life_n do_v by_o a_o vital_a union_n but_o the_o personality_n be_v whole_a and_o entire_a in_o the_o principle_n of_o a_o rational_a life_n and_o be_v neither_o more_o nor_o less_o a_o person_n though_o by_o vital_a union_n or_o a_o dissolution_n of_o they_o more_o or_o less_o may_v belong_v to_o the_o person_n we_o may_v find_v some_o resemblance_n of_o this_o in_o work_n of_o art_n whether_o you_o add_v or_o take_v away_o some_o wheel_n from_o a_o clock_n it_o be_v the_o same_o clock_n still_o while_o there_o be_v the_o same_o spring_n of_o motion_n though_o it_o communicate_v motion_n to_o more_o or_o few_o wheel_n and_o thus_o the_o body_n become_v one_o person_n with_o the_o soul_n neither_o by_o a_o hypostatical_a union_n which_o be_v the_o swallow_v up_o a_o natural_a personality_n in_o its_o union_n with_o

entire_a person_n a_o man_n when_o unite_v to_o a_o body_n 75._o be_v not_o a_o imperfect_a accidental_a compound_v which_o he_o say_v philosophy_n call_v unum_fw-la per_fw-la accidens_fw-la a_o

he_o can_v prove_v that_o if_o the_o soul_n be_v a_o entire_a person_n a_o man_n must_v be_v a_o imperfect_a accidental_a compound_n for_o a_o complete_a be_v as_o every_o person_n essential_o be_v

incomplete_a it_o must_v necessary_o make_v such_o a_o loose_a unnatural_a union_n and_o composition_n i_o do_v not_o wonder_v he_o be_v so_o fond_a of_o school-term_n for_o they_o serve_v he_o very_o often_o instead_o of_o sense_n but_o before_o i_o particular_o consider_v they_o by_o his_o good_a leave_n i_o must_v ask_v he_o a_o question_n or_o two_o whether_o the_o divine_a 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d or_o word_n before_o the_o incarnation_n be_v a_o complete_a be_v as_o he_o must_v be_v if_o he_o be_v the_o second_o person_n in_o the_o trinity_n for_o every_o person_n he_o say_v be_v essential_o a_o complete_a be_v and_o then_o whether_o he_o will_v have_v the_o humane_a nature_n a_o complete_a or_o incomplete_a be_v the_o question_n be_v whether_o the_o personal_a union_n of_o the_o humane_a nature_n to_o the_o divine_a word_n be_v necessary_o such_o a_o loose_a unnatural_a union_n and_o composition_n to_o say_v that_o this_o be_v not_o a_o natural_a union_n be_v to_o say_v that_o the_o divine_a and_o humane_a nature_n be_v not_o unite_v into_o one_o person_n in_o christ_n for_o i_o take_v a_o union_n of_o nature_n to_o be_v a_o natural_a union_n by_o what_o power_n soever_o it_o be_v do_v at_o least_o so_o far_o that_o there_o be_v no_o natural_a repugnancy_n to_o such_o a_o union_n for_o then_o no_o power_n can_v do_v it_o and_o therefore_o according_a to_o this_o bold_a assertion_n either_o the_o hypostatical_a union_n must_v be_v loose_a and_o unnatural_a or_o if_o the_o divine_a and_o humane_a nature_n be_v perfect_o unite_v into_o one_o person_n than_o the_o union_n of_o two_o complete_a being_n dos_n not_o necessary_o make_v such_o a_o loose_a unnatural_a union_n and_o composition_n but_o to_o quit_v these_o school-term_n and_o to_o speak_v what_o we_o understand_v ourselves_o and_o what_o other_o may_v understand_v the_o soul_n may_v be_v a_o complete_a and_o perfect_a person_n and_o not_o a_o perfect_a man_n and_o therefore_o notwithstanding_o it_o be_v a_o complete_a be_v may_v require_v a_o vital_a union_n to_o a_o humane_a body_n to_o perfect_v its_o nature_n that_o be_v a_o perfect_a humane_a person_n which_o have_v entire_o in_o itself_o all_o the_o power_n which_o be_v essential_a to_o a_o humane_a person_n such_o as_o understanding_n will_n and_o sensation_n which_o be_v as_o entire_a and_o perfect_a in_o

which_o convey_v external_a impression_n and_o by_o they_o excite_v internal_a sensation_n in_o the_o soul_n to_o represent_v this_o plain_o let_v we_o consider_v a_o soul_n vital_o unite_v to_o a_o
