and_o the_o separation_n of_o the_o soul_n from_o the_o body_n be_v common_o call_v death_n now_o than_o what_o death_n can_v there_o be_v of_o the_o soul_n see_v it_o be_v immaterial_a death_n must_v work_v upon_o a_o matter_n or_o nothing_o for_o as_o one_o say_v a_o man_n may_v take_v away_o the_o roundness_n or_o squarnesse_n of_o a_o table_n of_o copper_n because_o they_o have_v no_o abide_n but_o in_o the_o matter_n but_o have_v that_o or_o any_o thing_n else_o such_o a_o round_a or_o square_a form_n as_o may_v have_v abide_v without_o matter_n or_o stuff_n wherein_o to_o be_v out_o of_o all_o doubt_n such_o a_o form_n or_o shape_n shall_v continue_v for_o ever_o nay_o which_o be_v more_o how_o can_v that_o be_v the_o corrupter_n of_o a_o thing_n which_o be_v the_o perfection_n thereof_o the_o less_o our_o mind_n be_v tie_v to_o these_o bodily_a thing_n the_o more_o lively_a and_o cheerful_a they_o be_v at_o a_o word_n the_o full_a and_o perfect_a life_n thereof_o be_v the_o full_a and_o perfect_a withdraw_a thereof_o from_o the_o body_n and_o whatsoever_o the_o body_n be_v make_v of_o and_o this_o follow_v by_o direct_a consequence_n from_o the_o former_a all_o these_o thing_n be_v so_o clear_a that_o they_o need_v no_o proof_n for_o we_o know_v that_o every_o thing_n work_v according_a to_o the_o proper_a be_v thereof_o and_o that_o same_o which_o perfect_v the_o operation_n of_o a_o thing_n perfect_v the_o be_v thereof_o also_o it_o follow_v therefore_o that_o see_v the_o separation_n of_o the_o body_n from_o the_o soul_n and_o of_o the_o form_n from_o the_o matter_n perfect_v the_o operation_n or_o work_v of_o the_o soul_n as_o i_o say_v before_o it_o do_v also_o make_v perfect_a &_o strengthen_v the_o very_a be_v thereof_o and_o therefore_o can_v in_o any_o wise_a corrupt_v it_o and_o what_o else_o be_v die_v but_o to_o be_v corrupt_v and_o what_o else_o be_v corrupt_v but_o suffer_v and_o what_o else_o be_v suffer_v but_o receive_v and_o how_o can_v that_o which_o receive_v all_o thing_n without_o suffering_n receive_v corruption_n by_o any_o thing_n fire_n corrupt_v and_o mar_v our_o body_n and_o we_o suffer_v in_o receive_v it_o so_o also_o do_v extreme_a cold_n but_o if_o we_o suffer_v nothing_o by_o it_o it_o can_v not_o freeze_v we_o our_o sense_n likewise_o be_v mar_v by_o the_o successive_a force_n of_o the_o thing_n that_o they_o light_n upon_o and_o that_o be_v because_o they_o receive_v and_o perceive_v the_o thing_n that_o grieve_v they_o and_o for_o the_o manner_n of_o their_o behave_v themselves_o towards_o their_o object_n be_v subject_a to_o suffer_v but_o as_o the_o reasonable_a soul_n which_o receive_v all_o thing_n after_o one_o manner_n that_o be_v by_o the_o way_n of_o understanding_n by_o which_o it_o always_o work_v and_o be_v never_o wrought_v into_o how_o be_v it_o possible_a for_o it_o to_o corrupt_v or_o mar_v itself_o for_o what_o be_v the_o thing_n whereof_o our_o soul_n suffer_v aught_o in_o the_o substance_n thereof_o i_o mean_v where_o by_o the_o substance_n of_o our_o soul_n be_v any_o way_n impair_v or_o hurt_v by_o mind_v or_o conceive_v the_o same_o in_o understanding_n as_o little_a do_v the_o fire_n hurt_v it_o as_o the_o air_n and_o the_o air_n as_o the_o fire_n as_o little_a hurt_n receive_v it_o from_o the_o freeze_a ice_n of_o groenland_n as_o from_o the_o scorch_a sand_n of_o africa_n as_o little_a also_o do_v vice_n annoy_v it_o as_o virtue_n for_o vice_n and_o virtue_n be_v so_o far_o off_o from_o encumber_v the_o substance_n of_o the_o soul_n that_o our_o mind_n do_v never_o conceive_v or_o understand_v they_o better_o then_o by_o set_v together_o one_o against_o the_o other_o that_o thing_n therefore_o which_o do_v no_o whit_n impair_v itself_o but_o take_v the_o ground_n of_o perfect_a itself_o by_o all_o thing_n can_v be_v mar_v or_o hurt_v by_o any_o thing_n in_o the_o second_o place_n i_o say_v death_n be_v the_o uttermost_a point_n of_o move_v and_o the_o uttermost_a point_n of_o this_o life_n for_o even_o in_o live_v we_o die_v &_o in_o die_v we_o live_v &_o there_o be_v not_o that_o step_n that_o we_o make_v in_o this_o life_n but_o we_o step_v forward_o unto_o death_n after_o the_o manner_n of_o a_o dial_n or_o a_o clock_n which_o end_v its_o move_n in_o move_v from_o minute_n to_o minute_n take_v a_o way_n move_v from_o a_o bod_fw-mi &_o it_o live_v no_o long_o now_o let_v we_o see_v if_o the_o soul_n also_o be_v carry_v with_o the_o same_o move_n if_o it_o be_v it_o may_v die_v with_o the_o body_n if_o not_o it_o can_v but_o we_o see_v it_o move_v not_o with_o th●…_n body_n nay_o we_o see_v the_o contrary_a a_o man_n may_v have_v his_o mind_n as_o free_a as_o a_o emperor_n though_o his_o body_n be_v in_o prison_n whether_o the_o mind_n rest_n or_o whether_o it_o be_v busy_v about_o the_o proper_a operation_n thereof_o it_o be_v not_o perceive_v either_o by_o the_o pant_a of_o the_o hart_n or_o by_o the_o beat_n of_o the_o pulse_n or_o by_o the_o breathe_n of_o the_o lung_n the_o body_n carry_v the_o soul_n about_o like_o a_o ship_n the_o stick_v fast_o thereof_o or_o the_o tie_n of_o it_o to_o a_o post_n hinder_v not_o our_o go_v up_o and_o down_o in_o it_o still_o four_o if_o the_o soul_n be_v subject_a to_o the_o final_a coruption_n of_o the_o body_n it_o must_v needs_o be_v subject_a to_o the_o alteration_n thereof_o also_o and_o if_o it_o be_v subject_a to_o alteration_n it_o be_v subject_a to_o time_n also_o for_o alteration_n or_o change_n be_v consequent_n of_o move_v and_o move_v be_v not_o make_v without_o time_n now_o time_n pass_v in_o respect_n of_o the_o body_n can_v be_v call_v again_o but_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o mind_n it_o be_v always_o present_a yea_o and_o time_n perfect_v accomplish_v and_o increase_v our_o mind_n and_o refresh_v it_o from_o day_n to_o day_n whereas_o contrary_a wise_a it_o sore_o wear_v waste_v away_o and_o quit_v consume_v the_o body_n it_o follw_v then_o that_o the_o soul_n be_v not_o subject_a to_o those_o change_n and_o corruption_n that_o alter_v the_o body_n therefore_o can_v die_v with_o it_o five_o it_o appear_v that_o the_o soul_n be_v immortal_a &_o incorruptible_a because_o it_o live_v by_o incorruptible_a thing_n nothing_o in_o the_o world_n be_v nourish_v by_o thing_n better_o than_o itself_o neither_o do_v any_o of_o they_o contain_v great_a thing_n than_o itself_o but_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v corruptible_a do_v live_v of_o corruptible_a thing_n and_o can_v live_v without_o corrupt_v they_o as_o for_o example_n beast_n live_v by_o herb_n man_n by_o beast_n both_o by_o corrupt_v they_o turn_v they_o to_o nourishment_n of_o their_o nature_n and_o therefore_o thing_n that_o live_v by_o incorruptible_a thing_n and_o can_v so_o disgi_v they_o as_o to_o turn_v they_o into_o the_o nourishment_n of_o their_o nature_n &_o yet_o not_o corrupt_v they_o be_v incorruptible_a themselves_o too_o now_o the_o reason_n able_a soul_n or_o mind_n of_o man_n conceive_v reason_n and_o truth_n and_o be_v feed_v and_o strengthen_v with_o they_o and_o reason_n and_o truth_n be_v thing_n unchangeable_a not_o subject_a to_o time_n place_n or_o alteration_n or_o any_o thing_n else_o that_o may_v or_o can_v breed_v corruption_n but_o be_v steady_a unchangeable_a and_o everlasting_a for_o that_o twice_o two_o be_v fowr_n that_o there_o be_v the_o same_o reason_n in_o the_o proportion_n of_o eight_o to_o six_o that_o there_o be_v from_o four_o to_o three_o or_o that_o in_o a_o triangle_n the_o three_o inner_a angle_n be_v equal_a to_o the_o two_o right_a angle_n and_o truth_n that_o neither_o year_n nor_o thousand_o of_o year_n can_v change_v as_o true_a at_o this_o day_n as_o they_o be_v when_o euclid_n first_o speak_v they_o as_o true_a in_o our_o school_n as_o in_o his_o it_o follow_v then_o that_o the_o soul_n comprehend_v reason_n and_o truth_n which_o be_v thing_n free_a from_o coruption_n can_v itself_o in_o any_o wise_a be_v subject_a to_o corruption_n and_o in_o the_o sixth_o and_o last_o place_n we_o may_v fit_o bring_v in_o such_o a_o argument_n as_o we_o do_v in_o the_o first_o chap._n viz._n if_o all_o that_o be_v in_o we_o be_v mortal_a and_o transitory_a we_o shall_v never_o question_v what_o immortality_n be_v for_o of_o contraries_n the_o skill_n be_v all_o one_o if_o a_o man_n have_v no_o actual_a life_n or_o have_v it_o only_o by_o promise_n be_v it_o only_o a_o mortal_a life_n he_o can_v not_o dispute_v of_o it_o till_o he_o have_v it_o actual_o neither_o by_o the_o same_o argument_n can_v he_o speak_v of_o immortality_n be_v he_o not_o immortal_a but_o of_o this_o more_o before_o therefore_o i_o pass_v it_o
