enough_o for_o i_o to_o consider_v the_o divine_a nature_n in_o unity_n of_o essence_n unless_o i_o go_v yet_o further_o and_o find_v a_o trinity_n of_o person_n to_o be_v curious_a in_o this_o

love_v of_o thou_o if_o there_o be_v not_o a_o eternity_n of_o be_v than_o it_o may_v be_v true_o say_v that_o not_o be_v be_v before_o be_v and_o so_o that_o be_v have_v its_o rise_n from-not_a be_v

it_o will_v hence_o follow_v that_o be_v be_v from_o all_o eternity_n and_o that_o this_o be_v be_v eternal_o good_a for_o that_o which_o be_v good_a in_o the_o effect_n must_v needs_o be_v far_o more_o eminent_o good_a in_o the_o cause_n that_o this_o eternal_a good_a be_v must_v be_v also_o infinite_a because_o eternity_n itself_o be_v infinite_a that_o this_o infinite_a eternal_a good_a be_v must_v be_v of_o infinite_a power_n to_o continue_v infinite_o that_o this_o infinite_a power_n must_v also_o be_v of_o infinite_a understanding_n to_o support_v and_o preserve_v this_o eternal_a infintie_a good_a be_v and_o this_o infinite_a understanding_n be_v god_n where_o there_o be_v a_o infinite_a understanding_n there_o must_v also_o be_v a_o infinite_a object_n to_o be_v understand_v else_o can_v it_o not_o be_v infinite_o active_a and_o so_o shall_v both_o eternity_n and_o infinity_n suffer_v diminution_n and_o become_v defective_a which_o be_v for_o they_o both_o to_o be_v and_o not_o to_o be_v which_o be_v impossible_a and_o see_v there_o can_v be_v no_o object_n infinite_a out_o of_o god_n therefore_o this_o eternal_a infinite_a and_o everblessed_n object_n must_v of_o necessity_n be_v god_n where_o there_o be_v a_o infinite_a understanding_n and_o a_o infinite_a object_n to_o be_v understand_v there_o can_v choose_v but_o be_v a_o infinite_a and_o eternal_a love_n for_o from_o this_o infinite_a understanding_n of_o this_o infinite_o amiable_a and_o for_o ever_o bless_a object_n there_o must_v needs_o proceed_v a_o infinite_a delight_n whereby_o it_o infinite_o enjoy_v its_o own_o excellency_n and_o eternal_o reflect_v on_o the_o beauty_n of_o its_o own_o perfection_n else_o this_o infinite_a eternal_a understanding_n shall_v want_v power_n to_o enjoy_v this_o infinite_o aimiable_a object_n and_o so_o shall_v be_v neither_o good_a infinite_a nor_o eternal_a and_o this_o infinite_a and_o eternal_a love_n be_v god_n now_o because_o this_o understanding_n object_n and_o love_n be_v all_o infinite_a and_o that_o whatsoever_o be_v infinite_a must_v of_o necessity_n be_v god_n it_o will_v from_o thence_o true_o and_o undoubted_o follow_v that_o this_o understanding_n be_v god_n this_o object_n god_n and_o this_o love_n god_n and_o because_o it_o be_v as_o equal_o impossible_a that_o there_o can_v be_v any_o more_o than_o one_o
