three_o that_o of_o trinity_n may_v well_o be_v derive_v here_o be_v prove_v the_o trinity_n of_o person_n and_o the_o unity_n or_o oneness_n of_o essence_n or_o nature_n the_o trinity_n of_o person_n do_v not_o multiply_v the_o nature_n without_o any_o contradiction_n a_o subject_a may_v in_o one_o respect_n be_v one_o and_o manifold_a in_o another_o this_o be_v clear_a out_o of_o several_a

many_o sun_n yet_o only_o one_o a_o father_n have_v a_o son_n the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n be_v two_o different_a person_n yet_o they_o have_v the_o same_o nature_n and_o both_o be_v men._n there_o be_v many_o more_o such_o instance_n which_o i_o now_o forbear_v to_o mention_v to_o show_v how_o in_o create_v substance_n trinity_n or_o multiplicity_n do_v not_o destroy_v unity_n so_o we_o may_v reasonable_o infer_v that_o in_o the_o godhead_n the_o trinity_n of_o person_n be_v no_o prejudice_n to_o the_o unity_n of_o essence_n or_o nature_n but_o for_o all_o this_o they_o will_v deny_v the_o divinity_n of_o the_o son_n and_o of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n the_o first_o i_o prove_v and_o i_o think_v it_o
