arg._n 1_o may_v be_v prove_v by_o pregnant_a argument_n 1_o no_o creature_n can_v work_v out_o of_o his_o own_o proper_a sphere_n how_o can_v man_n if_o total_o mortal_a conceive_v of_o immortality_n can_v mortality_n comprehend_v immortality_n as_o probable_o as_o a_o man_n may_v throw_v a_o stone_n and_o knock_v down_o the_o sun_n which_o be_v far_o above_o his_o sphere_n the_o beast_n mind_n altogether_o the_o earth_n they_o eat_v when_o they_o be_v hungry_a drink_n when_o they_o be_v dry_a and_o go_v when_o they_o be_v beat_v and_o regard_v their_o creator_n no_o more_o than_o they_o do_v the_o clock_n when_o it_o strike_v the_o fish_n live_v in_o the_o water_n as_o the_o beast_n upon_o the_o earth_n because_o they_o be_v aqueall_v the_o other_o terrene_a neither_o rational_a and_o therefore_o can_v work_v above_o their_o sphere_n but_o man_n conceive_v not_o only_o the_o thing_n of_o this_o world_n but_o also_o of_o a_o better_a immortality_n glory_n eternity_n therefore_o must_v needs_o have_v something_o in_o he_o that_o be_v immortal_a who_o be_v he_o that_o desire_v not_o to_o be_v immortal_a how_o can_v he_o desire_v it_o unless_o he_o know_v what_o it_o be_v how_o can_v he_o know_v what_o it_o be_v unless_o he_o have_v something_o in_o he_o immortal_a none_o of_o we_o cover_v to_o be_v beginninglesse_a because_o none_o of_o we_o be_v so_o neither_o can_v be_v so_o and_o because_o we_o be_v not_o so_o we_o can_v not_o comprehend_v what_o it_o be_v for_o who_o can_v conceive_v of_o eternity_n without_o beginning_n but_o he_o will_v end_v his_o wit_n before_o his_o desire_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a there_o be_v not_o so_o base_a a_o mind_n upon_o earth_n which_o covet_v not_o to_o live_v for_o ever_o in_o so_o much_o that_o whereas_o we_o look_v not_o for_o it_o by_o nature_n we_o seek_v to_o obtain_v it_o by_o skill_n and_o policy_n some_o by_o book_n some_o by_o image_n and_o some_o by_o other_o device_n and_o even_o the_o ignorant_a sort_n of_o people_n can_v well_o imagine_v in_o themselves_o what_o immortality_n be_v and_o be_v able_a both_o to_o conceive_v it_o and_o believe_v it_o but_o the_o wise_a and_o learnede_a man_n alive_a shall_v he_o live_v as_o long_o as_o mathusalah_n and_o study_v what_o it_o be_v to_o be_v with_o out_o begin_v all_o his_o life_n time_n he_o must_v at_o last_o yield_v to_o death_n without_o fulfil_v or_o fill_v full_o his_o desire_n whence_o come_v this_o but_o that_o our_o soul_n be_v create_v can_v conceive_v a_o everlastingness_n without_o beginning_n yet_o be_v create_v immortal_a can_v well_o conceive_v a_o everlastingness_n or_o immortality_n without_o end_n let_v we_o yet_o wade_v a_o little_a deep_o who_o can_v dispute_v or_o once_o so_o much_o as_o doubt_v whether_o the_o soul_n be_v immortal_a or_o no_o but_o he_o that_o be_v capable_a of_o immortality_n or_o who_o can_v understand_v a_o difference_n between_o mortal_a and_o immortal_a but_o

because_o thy_o be_v mortal_a and_o can_v reach_v no_o high_o than_o mortality_n immortality_n be_v out_o of_o their_o sphere_n out_o of_o their_o element_n as_o the_o proverb_n be_v man_n be_v able_a to_o conceive_v what_o be_v reason_n and_o what_o be_v not_o and_o by_o that_o we_o term_v he_o rational_a man_n know_v a_o difference_n betwixt_o mortality_n and_o immortality_n and_o therefore_o must_v needs_o be_v immortal_a for_o to_o what_o end_n shall_v god_n teach_v immortality_n to_o a_o mortal_a wight_n if_o a_o man_n shall_v hold_v a_o argument_n that_o man_n be_v not_o rational_a and_o dispute_v it_o he_o need_v other_o confutation_n than_o his_o own_o argument_n so_o he_o that_o dispute_v that_o the_o soul_n be_v mortal_a his_o own_o reason_n of_o it_o shall_v to_o a_o wise_a man_n prove_v it_o immortal_a second_o it_o be_v plain_o prove_v arg._n 2_o that_o man_n consist_v of_o two_o part_n soul_n and_o body_n because_o they_o perform_v several_a and_o different_a work_n at_o one_o and_o the_o same_o time_n the_o soul_n or_o mind_n of_o man_n will_v be_v at_o constantinople_n then_o at_o rome_n at_o paris_n at_o lion_n in_o america_n in_o africa_n and_o dispatch_v all_o these_o journey_n in_o a_o trice_n look_v wheresoever_o thou_o direct_v it_o there_o it_o be_v and_o before_o thou_o call_v it_o back_o it_o be_v at_o home_n while_o the_o body_n all_o this_o time_n be_v at_o home_n at_o work_n or_o perhaps_o in_o bed_n therefore_o the_o soul_n and_o body_n be_v two_o different_a part_n nay_o the_o soul_n may_v and_o often_o do_v mind_n and_o desire_v good_a when_o the_o body_n be_v act_v sin_n rom._n 7.23.24_o 25_o i_o find_v a_o law_n in_o my_o member_n war_a against_o the_o law_n of_o my_o mind_n or_o soul_n and_o bring_v i_o into_o captivity_n to_o the_o law_n of_o my_o member_n but_o be_v it_o his_o body_n that_o war_v against_o his_o mind_n and_o bring_v it_o into_o captivity_n read_v the_o next_o verse_n you_o shall_v see_v o_o wretched_a man_n that_o i_o be_o who_o shall_v deliver_v i_o from_o the_o body_n of_o this_o death_n or_o this_o body_n of_o death_n as_o the_o margin_n more_o true_o have_v it_o this_o mortal_a

without_o further_a proof_n for_o if_o the_o soul_n be_v the_o body_n or_o any_o part_n of_o the_o body_n it_o will_v nay_o must_v needs_o grow_v with_o the_o body_n and_o decline_v with_o the_o

be_v soul_n the_o same_o with_o or_o part_n of_o the_o body_n the_o great_a the_o body_n be_v the_o great_a will_v the_o soul_n be_v but_o the_o contrary_n appear_v those_o that_o be_v strong_a in_o
