mind_n because_o she_o have_v not_o so_o great_a a_o reach_n as_o to_o conceive_v they_o for_o instance_n that_o that_o be_v shall_v be_v of_o itself_o that_o that_o be_v shall_v be_v almighty_a and_o

subject_a for_o instance_n she_o conceive_v liberty_n and_o immutability_n immensity_n and_o indivisibility_n the_o property_n of_o body_n and_o of_o spirit_n as_o so_o many_o perfection_n she_o see_v that_o the_o perfection_n which_o agree_v to_o several_a being_n separately_z must_v all_o be_v unite_v in_o that_o absolute_o perfect_a be_v conceive_v therefore_o a_o be_v absolute_o perfect_a she_o represent_v it_o at_o once_o as_o a_o free_a be_v and_o a_o immutable_a as_o one_o that_o can_v desire_v and_o be_v averse_a to_o the_o same_o thing_n though_o its_o will_v be_v always_o

the_o mind_n for_o real_a and_o as_o have_v a_o real_a object_n which_o be_v palpable_o false_a all_o this_o discover_v the_o original_a of_o the_o scruple_n all_o the_o world_n have_v have_v as_o

that_o it_o be_v by_o mere_a violence_n they_o have_v at_o last_o accustom_a their_o understanding_n to_o tell_v they_o that_o demonstration_n be_v evident_a this_o be_v the_o fault_n which_o some_o felt_n rather_o than_o see_v that_o make_v they_o deny_v existence_n to_o be_v enclose_v in_o the_o idea_n of_o a_o be_v infinite_o perfect_a for_o absolute_o speak_v although_o it_o be_v comprise_v
