in_o the_o world_n nothing_o can_v be_v add_v or_o impair_v four_o in_o the_o sympathy_n and_o concord_n that_o be_v among_o some_o and_o the_o discord_n and_o hatred_n that_o be_v among_o other_o of_o the_o creature_n five_o in_o the_o pulchritude_n and_o comeliness_n that_o be_v in_o every_o creature_n as_o may_v be_v see_v in_o the_o body_n of_o man_n sixthly_a in_o the_o admirable_a

why_o be_v man_n the_o last_o of_o all_o the_o creature_n create_v a._n because_o god_n will_v make_v all_o thing_n fit_a and_o prepare_v for_o he_o second_o because_o he_o be_v the_o lord_n and_o end_n of_o all_o other_o creature_n three_o because_o he_o be_v most_o perfect_a and_o in_o order_n of_o generation_n that_o which_o be_v most_o perfect_a be_v last_o q._n wherein_o do_v man_n

perfect_o of_o all_o other_o creature_n for_o he_o have_v not_o only_a existence_n and_o life_n but_o also_o reason_n and_o wisdom_n q._n wherein_o do_v the_o image_n of_o god_n consist_v a._n the_o

their_o nature_n absolute_o for_o they_o be_v of_o a_o more_o excellent_a nature_n than_o man_n but_o if_o we_o respect_v the_o dignity_n of_o man_n nature_n the_o which_o be_v sanctify_v and_o

he_o not_o be_v call_v the_o image_n of_o god_n a._n no_o for_o christ_n be_v only_o the_o image_n of_o god_n because_o he_o be_v of_o that_o same_o nature_n with_o the_o father_n but_o man_n be_v of_o another_o nature_n and_o therefore_o he_o be_v not_o the_o image_n of_o god_n but_o create_v to_o the_o image_n of_o god_n q._n be_v the_o image_n of_o god_n see_v in_o the_o woman_n as_o in_o the_o man_n a._n yes_o equal_o in_o both_o if_o we_o respect_v their_o nature_n yet_o the_o image_n of_o god_n be_v see_v in_o man_n more_o perfect_o in_o respect_n that_o man_n be_v both_o the_o

image_n for_o that_o righteousness_n wherein_o adam_n be_v create_v than_o we_o say_v that_o god_n image_n be_v abolish_v by_o sin_n but_o if_o by_o the_o image_n of_o god_n we_o understand_v man_n reasonable_a soul_n with_o the_o faculty_n thereof_o than_o his_o image_n be_v not_o utter_o abolish_v but_o deface_v by_o sin_n q._n why_o do_v god_n create_v man_n to_o his_o image_n a._n first_o to_o manifest_v his_o singular_a love_n and_o goodness_n to_o man_n second_o that_o all_o creature_n may_v reverence_v man_n the_o more_o in_o that_o he_o carry_v the_o image_n of_o god_n as_o his_o badge_n and_o arm_n three_o that_o man_n may_v love_v and_o serve_v god_n the_o more_o for_o he_o wear_v god_n image_n as_o his_o livery_n fourthly_a that_o man_n may_v know_v the_o nature_n and_o

capable_a of_o eternal_a felicity_n and_o more_o assure_v of_o god_n love_n seventh_o that_o god_n power_n may_v appear_v the_o more_o in_o that_o he_o create_v such_o a_o excellent_a piece_n of_o work_n at_o which_o all_o the_o creature_n may_v admire_v q._n have_v man_n before_o his_o fall_n dominion_n over_o the_o creature_n a._n yes_o genesis_n 1_o psalm_n 8._o second_o he_o give_v name_n to_o they_o in_o token_n of_o his_o power_n over_o they_o three_o euah_n confer_v free_o with_o the_o serpent_n without_o fear_n fourthly_a it_o stand_v with_o the_o order_n of_o nature_n that_o some_o shall_v be_v superior_n and_o some_o inferior_n and_o man_n be_v fit_a to_o govern_v because_o of_o his_o reason_n and_o wisdom_n q._n have_v man_n also_o dominion_n over_o the_o creature_n
