a_o direct_a hand_n in_o her_o distemper_n call_v a_o spirit_n of_o infirmity_n there_o be_v more_o evident_a and_o more_o frequent_a instance_n of_o this_o kind_n in_o that_o time_n the_o devil_n then_o set_v himself_o more_o open_o to_o contend_v against_o the_o incarnate_a son_n of_o god_n upon_o his_o more_o open_a appearance_n to_o rescue_v and_o recover_v a_o apostate_n world_n from_o under_o his_o dominion_n and_o tyranny_n but_o as_o to_o more_o ordinary_a case_n we_o may_v further_o consider_v 2._o that_o the_o devil_n be_v a_o constant_a enemy_n to_o mankind_n apt_a and_o incline_v as_o far_o as_o god_n permit_v he_o to_o do_v man_n all_o the_o mischief_n he_o can_v 3._o that_o as_o he_o first_o introduce_v sin_n into_o the_o world_n so_o he_o have_v by_o consequence_n all_o the_o calamity_n that_o afflict_v it_o there_o have_v be_v no_o death_n sickness_n or_o distemper_n upon_o the_o body_n of_o man_n but_o from_o hence_o consider_v the_o devil_n therefore_o as_o the_o prince_n and_o leader_n of_o the_o apostasy_n who_o first_o draw_v man_n into_o transgression_n and_o thereby_o render_v he_o liable_a to_o the_o justice_n of_o his_o maker_n turn_v his_o
