you_o the_o same_o by_o probable_a reason_n orthodoxus_n i_o prove_v it_o thus_o ente_fw-la 1._o the_o angel_n they_o be_v either_o create_v or_o uncreated_a but_o not_o uncreated_a therefore_o create_v they_o can_v possible_o be_v uncreated_a substance_n for_o then_o they_o shall_v also_o be_v infinite_a howbeit_o angel_n they_o be_v finite_a creature_n for_o their_o action_n be_v finite_a yea_o and_o then_o also_o their_o power_n it_o be_v finite_a but_o if_o they_o be_v of_o a_o finite_a power_n than_o also_o of_o a_o circumscriptible_a essence_n moreover_o it_o shall_v plain_o appear_v anon_o in_o place_n convenient_a that_o angel_n be_v finite_a creature_n and_o definitive_o also_o in_o some_o certain_a place_n which_o thing_n can_v not_o possible_a accord_n to_o any_o uncreated_a essence_n at_o all_o and_o therefore_o angel_n they_o be_v not_o uncreated_a substance_n 2_o second_o i_o prove_v it_o thus_o if_o angel_n be_v uncreated_a then_o be_v they_o eternal_a but_o not_o eternal_a therefore_o not_o uncreated_a that_o they_o be_v not_o eternal_a it_o be_v very_o apparent_a for_o then_o shall_v they_o be_v such_o as_o have_v neither_o beginning_n nor_o end_n of_o their_o essence_n as_o also_o their_o essence_n or_o nature_n itself_o shall_v then_o be_v such_o as_o have_v nothing_o in_o it_o either_o first_o or_o last_o but_o this_o agree_v only_o to_o god_n himself_o and_o not_o to_o any_o creature_n in_o heaven_n or_o in_o earth_n and_o therefore_o if_o there_o be_v angel_n then_o be_v they_o create_v and_o if_o create_v then_o create_v no_o doubt_n within_o the_o six_o day_n as_o be_v show_v before_o and_o thus_o much_o for_o the_o proof_n of_o this_o point_n by_o probable_a reason_n pneumatomachus_fw-la well_o let_v we_o hear_v next_o the_o testimony_n of_o father_n concern_v this_o question_n orthodoxus_n withal_o my_o hart_n 2._o wherein_o also_o for_o brevity_n sake_n i_o will_v only_o but_o rehearse_v their_o name_n and_o

whatsoever_o be_v the_o undoubted_a workmanship_n of_o god_n howsoever_o their_o creation_n be_v not_o apparent_o lay_v forth_o in_o the_o sacred_a scripture_n yea_o 3._o the_o counsel_n of_o

they_o conclude_v he_o accurse_v of_o god_n thus_o then_o you_o see_v it_o apparent_o evident_a by_o scripture_n 3._o by_o reason_n and_o the_o testimony_n also_o of_o sundry_a father_n that_o angel_n and_o spirit_n be_v finite_a creature_n of_o god_n be_v undoubted_o create_v within_o the_o six_o day_n 1._o pneumatomachus_fw-la but_o in_o what_o day_n of_o those_o six_o be_v they_o create_v 5._o orthodoxus_n touch_v the_o very_a day_n itself_o there_o be_v some_o difference_n in_o judgement_n among_o the_o divine_n 2._o some_o hold_v they_o be_v create_v the_o first_o day_n and_o some_o the_o

that_o they_o be_v create_v before_o the_o three_o day_n may_v plain_o be_v prove_v by_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n unto_o job_n 7._o say_v where_o be_v thou_o when_o i_o lay_v the_o foundation_n

to_o god_n it_o follow_v necessary_o they_o be_v then_o create_v before_o for_o how_o shall_v they_o sing_v praise_n before_o their_o creation_n but_o it_o be_v unlikely_a they_o be_v the_o first_o

be_v overhard_v to_o prove_v and_o beside_o that_o it_o be_v the_o very_a question_n itself_o by_o the_o premise_n than_o it_o be_v very_o apparent_a that_o this_o your_o first_o reason_n have_v in_o
