god_n only_o to_o be_v without_o beginning_n so_o it_o belong_v to_o god_n only_o to_o be_v without_o change_n or_o shadow_n of_o change_n and_o that_o the_o angel_n as_o creature_n be_v reduceable_a to_o nothing_o by_o the_o same_o hand_n that_o make_v they_o so_o as_o though_o there_o be_v no_o passive_a principle_n in_o they_o by_o which_o they_o may_v be_v call_v corruptible_a or_o mortal_a yet_o in_o respect_n of_o a_o active_a power_n of_o god_n upon_o which_o their_o be_v and_o life_n depend_v they_o may_v be_v call_v corruptible_a and_o mortal_a because_o as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o power_n of_o the_o creator_n that_o thing_n be_v so_o it_o be_v in_o the_o power_n of_o the_o creator_n that_o they_o may_v not_o be_v yea_o so_o much_o they_o be_v in_o god_n hand_n though_o the_o best_a piece_n of_o nature_n that_o if_o he_o do_v but_o withdraw_v his_o hand_n they_o all_o moulder_v to_o nothing_o there_o need_v no_o great_a activity_n be_v put_v forth_o a_o mere_a cease_n to_o uphold_v they_o be_v sufficient_a to_o destroy_v they_o but_o yet_o when_o you_o speak_v of_o changeable_a or_o corruptible_a it_o must_v be_v understand_v of_o the_o next_o and_o intrinsicall_a cause_n and_o not_o of_o the_o remote_a and_o outward_a cause_n as_o man_n be_v not_o call_v the_o child_n of_o the_o sun_n though_o sol_n &_o homo_fw-la generate_fw-la hominem_fw-la but_o of_o their_o parent_n so_o as_o the_o angel_n may_v proper_o be_v call_v incorruptible_a and_o immortal_a because_o they_o be_v so_o by_o nature_n i_o speak_v not_o now_o of_o the_o changeablenesse_n of_o their_o will_n but_o of_o their_o nature_n and_o substance_n the_o reason_n be_v first_o because_o the_o angel_n be_v not_o produce_v out_o of_o the_o power_n of_o any_o matter_n as_o corporal_a substance_n and_o the_o soul_n of_o beast_n but_o be_v produce_v only_o by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o as_o they_o have_v no_o internal_a principle_n of_o be_v so_o have_v they_o none_o of_o dissolution_n for_o there_o be_v the_o same_o reason_n of_o be_v and_o not_o be_v second_o angelical_a nature_n as_o the_o soul_n also_o of_o man_n be_v not_o compound_v of_o matter_n &_o form_n but_o be_v simple_a form_n and_o substance_n subsist_v by_o themselves_o now_o all_o corruption_n mortality_n and_o death_n be_v by_o the_o separation_n of_o the_o form_n from_o the_o matter_n as_o when_o the_o soul_n be_v separate_v from_o the_o body_n which_o be_v corruption_n or_o death_n or_o when_o the_o accidental_a form_n be_v separate_v from_o the_o subject_n as_o white_a from_o the_o wall_n or_o health_n from_o the_o man_n now_o what_o ever_o want_v matter_n be_v incorruptible_a because_o there_o be_v no_o composition_n and_o so_o no_o separation_n but_o the_o scripture_n conclude_v this_o best_a in_o assimulate_v the_o state_n of_o immortality_n in_o which_o we_o shall_v be_v to_o the_o angel_n this_o be_v the_o three_o consideration_n we_o make_v of_o the_o nature_n of_o angel_n that_o they_o be_v immutable_a four_o we_o will_v consider_v of_o the_o apparition_n of_o angel_n of_o which_o we_o hear_v so_o frequent_a mention_n in_o the_o scripture_n and_o the_o consideration_n whereof_o will_v prove_v so_o proper_a to_o our_o purpose_n one_o manner_n of_o their_o appearing_n have_v be_v in_o dream_n another_o in_o vision_n the_o three_o in_o assumption_n of_o body_n and_o that_o either_o of_o body_n form_v of_o nothing_o or_o of_o pre-existant_a matter_n they_o form_v or_o possess_v and_o act_v natural_a body_n already_o make_v some_o have_v think_v there_o have_v be_v no_o assumption_n of_o body_n but_o only_o a_o appearance_n to_o the_o fancy_n and_o imagination_n but_o that_o must_v needs_o be_v otherwise_o for_o what_o ever_o be_v a_o substance_n which_o be_v not_o a_o body_n nor_o have_v a_o body_n natural_o unite_v and_o yet_o be_v sometime_o see_v with_o a_o bodily_a sight_n or_o vision_n must_v needs_o take_v up_o a_o body_n and_o further_o this_o be_v not_o a_o imaginary_a and_o fantastical_a apparition_n because_o such_o a_o imagination_n be_v not_o see_v by_o the_o sense_n without_o but_o by_o the_o fancy_n within_o 2._o a_o imaginative_a sight_n be_v only_o within_o in_o the_o imagination_n consequent_o appear_v to_o he_o only_o which_o so_o see_v it_o but_o that_o which_o be_v see_v by_o the_o eye_n because_o it_o exist_v without_o and_o not_o within_o the_o mind_n may_v be_v see_v also_o of_o all_o other_o such_o apparition_n be_v of_o the_o angel_n that_o appear_v to_o abraham_n to_o lott_n and_o to_o the_o man_n of_o sodom_n who_o be_v see_v by_o they_o and_o indifferent_o by_o all_o obj._n but_o if_o you_o object_n to_o what_o end_n be_v this_o assumption_n of_o body_n since_o the_o power_n of_o the_o angel_n exceed_v all_o bodily_a might_n and_o this_o will_v not_o be_v unuseful_a to_o consider_v since_o it_o make_v way_n to_o show_v to_o what_o end_n they_o appear_v and_o what_o they_o have_v do_v and_o can_v do_v for_o we_o and_o upon_o we_o both_o the_o good_a and_o bad_a ans._n the_o angel_n assume_v body_n for_o the_o manifest_v themselves_o not_o for_o the_o do_v of_o their_o work_n but_o that_o they_o may_v familiar_o speak_v with_o man_n without_o their_o terror_n and_o dread_n aquinas_n give_v other_o reason_n that_o they_o may_v manifest_v the_o intelligible_a society_n and_o converse_v which_o man_n expect_v with_o they_o in_o another_o life_n and_o in_o the_o old_a testament_n that_o it_o be_v a_o certain_a figurative_a declaration_n that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n shall_v take_v humane_a flesh_n for_o all_o apparition_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n be_v in_o order_n to_o that_o apparition_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n in_o the_o flesh_n if_o you_o ask_v i_o what_o kind_n of_o body_n they_o take_v and_o whether_o they_o be_v true_a man_n or_o no_o in_o take_v humane_a shape_n answ._n first_o though_o they_o appear_v in_o a_o humane_a shape_n they_o be_v not_o true_a man_n as_o christ_n be_v a_o true_a man_n because_o he_o be_v personal_o and_o hypostatical_o unite_v but_o body_n be_v not_o unite_v to_o the_o angel_n as_o to_o their_o form_n as_o the_o body_n be_v to_o the_o soul_n which_o be_v its_o form_n nor_o be_v the_o humane_a nature_n body_n and_o soul_n unite_v to_o the_o person_n of_o any_o angel_n but_o they_o take_v body_n to_o they_o as_o garment_n which_o they_o take_v up_o and_o lay_v down_o upon_o occasion_n if_o you_o ask_v of_o what_o those_o body_n consist_v it_o be_v like_o ordinary_o of_o some_o of_o the_o element_n as_o of_o the_o air_n and_o if_o you_o object_n that_o the_o air_n be_v improper_a to_o take_v figure_n or_o colour_n because_o it_o be_v so_o thin_a and_o transparent_a the_o answer_n be_v that_o although_o the_o air_n remain_v in_o its_o rarity_n do_v not_o retain_v figure_n or_o colour_n yet_o when_o it_o be_v condence_v and_o thicken_v it_o will_v do_v both_o as_o appear_v in_o the_o cloud_n another_o way_n of_o appear_v be_v in_o possess_v some_o natural_a body_n so_o the_o devil_n enter_v into_o the_o serpent_n and_o a_o angel_n speak_v in_o balam_n ass_n so_o you_o read_v often_o of_o man_n possess_v with_o evil_a angel_n the_o man_n speak_v not_o but_o the_o devil_n in_o they_o the_o like_a may_v be_v say_v often_o of_o the_o good_a now_o if_o any_o shall_v ask_v what_o become_v of_o those_o body_n qu._n the_o answer_n be_v ans._n if_o they_o be_v create_v of_o nothing_o they_o be_v reduce_v into_o nothing_o by_o the_o power_n of_o god_n but_o if_o they_o be_v form_v of_o pre-existent_a matter_n the_o work_n be_v do_v for_o which_o they_o be_v take_v up_o they_o be_v resolve_v again_o into_o their_o element_n or_o principle_n but_o if_o the_o body_n be_v natural_a real_a and_o existent_a before_o they_o be_v leave_v so_o again_o by_o the_o depart_n of_o the_o angel_n so_o be_v balam_n ass_n and_o many_o body_n possess_v by_o the_o devil_n cast_v out_o by_o christ._n another_o consideration_n be_v whether_o the_o angel_n have_v assume_v those_o body_n do_v put_v forth_o act_n of_o life_n whether_o they_o speak_v and_o sing_v or_o eat_v and_o drink_v as_o they_o seem_v to_o do_v this_o be_v handle_v with_o much_o controversy_n but_o it_o be_v certain_a they_o do_v what_o they_o seem_v to_o do_v as_o appear_v by_o the_o plain_a direct_a story_n of_o moses_n concern_v the_o angel_n that_o appear_v to_o abraham_n and_o other_o and_o this_o be_v assure_v that_o what_o ever_o the_o angel_n appear_v to_o have_v or_o do_v that_o they_o have_v &_o do_v for_o they_o never_o deceive_v your_o sense_n their_o colour_n their_o shape_n their_o eat_n their_o drink_n their_z speaking_z be_v what_o it_o seem_v to_o be_v for_o the_o sense_n be_v not_o

make_v they_o our_o pattern_n they_o come_v to_o we_o admonish_v we_o of_o god_n will_n they_o teach_v protect_v and_o comfort_v we_o 4._o from_o their_o apparition_n and_o service_n they_o appear_v often_o to_o the_o father_n they_o wrestle_v with_o jacob_n eat_v with_o abraham_n carry_v the_o elect_a into_o abraham_n bosom_n they_o gather_v the_o dead_a at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n and_o we_o shall_v be_v like_o the_o angel_n also_o christ_n be_v say_v not_o to_o take_v upon_o he_o the_o nature_n of_o angel_n and_o paul_n charge_v timothy_n before_o christ_n and_o the_o elect_a angel_n and_o christ_n be_v say_v to_o have_v a_o name_n give_v he_o above_o the_o angel_n last_o to_o give_v a_o ground_n out_o of_o philosophy_n aristotle_n say_v that_o to_o the_o perfection_n of_o the_o world_n it_o be_v necessary_a that_o there_o shall_v be_v three_o sort_n of_o substance_n invisible_a visible_a and_o partly_o invisible_a and_o partly_o visible_a as_o if_o he_o have_v hit_v

and_o a_o visible_a body_n and_o hold_v the_o middle_n the_o first_o therefore_o must_v be_v the_o angel_n if_o you_o ask_v as_o a_o appendix_n to_o this_o whether_o the_o angel_n have_v body_n or_o be_v altogether_o incorporal_a it_o be_v a_o question_n controvert_v between_o the_o philosopher_n the_o schoolman_n and_o the_o father_n the_o platoniste_n will_v have_v they_o have_v body_n to_o which_o many_o of_o the_o father_n adhere_v aristotle_n and_o the_o schoolman_n will_v have_v they_o altogether_o incorporal_a the_o reason_n on_o both_o side_n be_v not_o unworthy_a consider_v if_o one_o will_v amuse_v themselves_o in_o that_o out_o of_o which_o the_o scripture_n give_v no_o issue_n i_o will_v not_o trouble_v you_o with_o it_o only_o this_o its_o safe_a to_o say_v that_o they_o be_v not_o essence_n so_o simple_a as_o they_o be_v altogether_o uncapable_a of_o composition_n it_o be_v only_o proper_a to_o god_n to_o have_v his_o be_v and_o essence_n or_o substance_n the_o

any_o change_n as_o of_o any_o composition_n to_o say_v god_n be_v a_o angel_n be_v a_o derogation_n as_o to_o say_v he_o be_v a_o body_n unless_o you_o shall_v mean_v by_o a_o body_n a_o substance_n as_o tertullian_n do_v and_o so_o call_v god_n a_o body_n that_o be_v a_o substance_n but_o if_o they_o have_v any_o such_o composition_n as_o may_v be_v call_v a_o body_n it_o be_v certain_o of_o the_o great_a fineness_n and_o subtlety_n a_o spiritual_a body_n and_o therefore_o not_o like_a to_o be_v of_o that_o grossness_n that_o either_o the_o air_n be_v or_o those_o heaven_n that_o be_v frame_v out_o of_o the_o chaos_n but_o near_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o high_a heaven_n which_o seem_v to_o have_v be_v make_v at_o the_o same_o time_n to_o conclude_v it_o will_v be_v safe_a to_o say_v that_o in_o comparison_n of_o god_n they_o be_v body_n in_o comparison_n of_o we_o they_o be_v pure_a and_o mighty_a spirit_n from_o this_o that_o have_v be_v say_v in_o general_a of_o the_o

you_o see_v reason_n to_o consider_v of_o the_o angel_n not_o as_o inspiration_n motion_n fancy_n or_o phantasm_n but_o as_o of_o real_a substance_n and_o existence_n mighty_a spirit_n that_o in_o

of_o the_o cease_n of_o miracle_n they_o be_v appropriate_v to_o the_o lay_n of_o fondation_n both_o of_o the_o law_n and_o the_o gospel_n we_o walk_v now_o in_o the_o virtue_n of_o these_o
