that_o god_n in_o the_o beginning_n create_v all_o essence_n of_o any_o generable_a and_o corruptible_a thing_n either_o in_o their_o actualitys_n or_o potentialitys_n and_o all_o the_o real_a

or_o manner_n whatsoever_o that_o be_v all_o the_o simple_a substance_n of_o matter_n and_o spirit_n elementary_a vegetative_a and_o sensitive_a which_o subfist_n in_o themselves_o in_o their_o own_o actualitys_n which_o therefore_o in_o themselves_o be_v ingenerable_a and_o incorruptible_a but_o whereas_o they_o of_o the_o same_o classis_fw-la may_v be_v mist_n together_o when_o they_o be_v so_o mist_n they_o all_o become_v one_o mistum_fw-la which_o be_v the_o thing_n generate_v and_o realy_n be_v another_o something_o different_a from_o they_o but_o actualy_n subsist_v in_o they_o which_o therefore_o be_v before_o potentia_o in_o they_o that_o be_v in_o their_o power_n to_o produce_v it_o and_o in_o its_o own_o potentiality_n to_o be_v produce_v out_o of_o they_o and_o the_o form_n thereof_o be_v that_o which_o i_o therefore_o call_v forma_fw-la misti_fw-la as_o of_o stone_n metal_n mule_n and_o the_o like_a and_o if_o they_o be_v of_o several_a class_n which_o can_v be_v mist_n yet_o they_o may_v be_v composit_v together_o as_o indeed_o there_o be_v no_o misâ—ion_n without_o some_o such_o composition_n for_o so_o the_o very_a elementary_a mista_n be_v composit_v with_o the_o matter_n and_o vegetative_n with_o they_o and_o the_o like_a and_o therefore_o the_o form_n thereof_o may_v be_v more_o right_o term_v forma_fw-la compositi_fw-la and_o as_o this_o forma_fw-la misti_fw-la or_o compositi_fw-la be_v thus_o generable_a or_o corruptible_a because_o it_o do_v subsist_v in_o the_o simple_a substance_n and_o so_o may_v be_v produce_v out_o of_o they_o wherein_o it_o be_v potentia_o and_o than_o it_o be_v generate_v and_o in_o its_o actuality_n or_o reduce_v again_o from_o it_o into_o its_o potentiality_n and_o so_o corrupt_v so_o also_o simple_a accident_n which_o clear_o be_v create_v in_o and_o with_o their_o simple_a substance_n as_o extension_n figure_n density_n rest_v and_o the_o like_a in_o and_o with_o the_o matter_n because_o they_o also_o subsist_v not_o in_o themselves_o but_o in_o their_o substance_n they_o may_v be_v so_o alter_v and_o vary_v by_o generation_n and_o corruption_n as_o to_o be_v produce_v out_o of_o their_o potentiality_n into_o actuality_n and_o reduce_v from_o their_o actuality_n to_o potentiality_n again_o thus_o heat_v and_o cold_a and_o the_o like_a do_v sometime_o actualy_n exist_v and_o sometime_o do_v not_o but_o be_v in_o their_o potentialitys_n and_o so_o also_o they_o may_v be_v mist_n or_o composit_v as_o tepor_fw-la and_o the_o like_a and_o all_o such_o accidental_a mist_n or_o composit_v form_n subsist_v immediate_o in_o one_o another_o and_o all_o of_o they_o mediate_o or_o immediate_o in_o their_o substance_n and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o i_o intend_v wherein_o i_o can_v not_o conceiv_v how_o any_o who_o do_v not_o deny_v a_o creation_n can_v differ_v in_o the_o thing_n but_o only_o about_o term_n concern_v which_o i_o must_v assign_v one_o distinction_n the_o want_n

so_o as_o our_o gross_a body_n now_o do_v by_o door_n open_a which_o be_v their_o usual_a avenue_n whereas_o his_o more_o spiritual_a body_n may_v enter_v in_o by_o a_o window_n or_o other_o aperture_n of_o the_o house_n without_o any_o penetration_n and_o this_o renovation_n both_o of_o soul_n and_o body_n shall_v be_v genera_o conformable_a unto_o he_o and_o so_o make_v by_o his_o

the_o earthly_a we_o shall_v also_o bear_v the_o image_n of_o the_o heavenly_a vii_o thus_o the_o heaven_n and_o earth_n be_v finish_v and_o all_o the_o host_n of_o they_o which_o consummation_n plain_o refer_v to_o the_o first_o inception_n in_o the_o beginning_n god_n create_v the_o heaven_n and_o the_o earth_n or_o as_o it_o be_v originaly_n these_o heaven_n and_o this_o earth_n which_o be_v the_o same_o that_o be_v afterward_o so_o finish_v in_o the_o several_a work_n of_o the_o six_o day_n and_o which_o as_o it_o be_v also_o say_v god_n create_v to_o make_v and_o particular_o it_o

all_o generable_a and_o corruptible_a thing_n first_o in_o the_o chaos_n of_o their_o potentialitys_n and_o of_o their_o several_a generation_n afterward_o in_o the_o six_o day_n be_v so_o plain_o

thereof_o or_o orderly_a militia_n and_o thus_o god_n be_v call_v the_o lord_n of_o host_n or_o of_o the_o arm_n of_o all_o the_o creature_n so_o as_o i_o have_v observe_v there_o be_v both_o a_o scale_n of_o nature_n and_o also_o a_o oeconomy_n of_o the_o composita_fw-la and_o polity_n of_o the_o whole_a univers_n and_o that_o therefore_o it_o be_v declare_v of_o they_o all_o that_o they_o be_v valde_fw-la bona_fw-la or_o as_o it_o be_v originaly_n valde_fw-la bonum_fw-la singular_o as_o of_o one_o and_o a_o epitome_n hereof_o be_v every_o man_n in_o himself_o as_o i_o have_v show_v and_o because_o as_o i_o have_v say_v he_o be_v such_o a_o microcosm_n now_o in_o respect_n of_o this_o world_n and_o so_o shall_v be_v of_o the_o world_n future_a therefore_o god_n do_v still_o continue_v to_o create_v the_o soul_n of_o man_n from_o the_o end_n of_o the_o first_o create_v world_n which_o be_v thus_o consummate_v in_o man_n as_o the_o sum_n of_o all_o the_o rest_n until_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o other_o world_n and_o if_o we_o right_o estimate_v the_o many_o million_o of_o man_n live_v together_o on_o the_o earth_n probable_o he_o do_v create_v human_a soul_n every_o minute_n and_o so_o though_o he_o rest_v from_o make_v the_o great_a world_n yet_o he_o make_v many_o such_o little_a world_n continualy_a for_o though_o it_o be_v say_v he_o have_v rest_v from_o all_o his_o work_n which_o god_n have_v create_v to_o make_v that_o be_v to_o be_v generate_v or_o to_o make_v by_o generation_n first_o originaly_n which_o be_v supernatural_a and_o their_o

or_o improper_o create_v the_o human_a compositum_fw-la of_o any_o other_o man_n as_o he_o do_v the_o first_o adam_n except_o only_a jesus_n christ_n who_o be_v thereby_o declare_v to_o be_v the_o
