evermore_o have_v a_o change_n of_o blessedness_n &_o misery_n yet_o notwithstanding_o he_o will_v have_v the_o soul_n of_o wicked_a man_n to_o go_v into_o other_o human_a body_n that_o they_o may_v be_v purge_v in_o they_o and_o then_o when_o they_o be_v purge_v without_o any_o return_v to_o their_o old_a misery_n he_o place_v they_o in_o eternal_a felicity_n for_o it_o shame_v porphirius_fw-la to_o say_v that_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n be_v post_v back_o again_o into_o bestial_a body_n if_o plato_n and_o porphirius_fw-la have_v agree_v between_o themselves_o i_o believe_v that_o they_o also_o shall_v have_v see_v that_o it_o be_v a_o consequent_a that_o soul_n do_v return_v to_o their_o body_n and_o shall_v receive_v such_o thing_n as_o whereby_o they_o may_v live_v bless_o and_o immortal_o because_o according_a to_o plato_n the_o holy_a soul_n also_o shall_v return_v to_o human_a body_n according_a to_o porphirius_fw-la they_o shall_v return_v to_o the_o evil_n of_o this_o world_n porphirius_fw-la therefore_o may_v say_v with_o plato_n they_o shall_v return_v unto_o body_n and_o plato_n with_o porphirius_fw-la they_o shall_v not_o return_v to_o evil_a one_o therefore_o that_o the_o soul_n may_v be_v bless_v every_o body_n must_v not_o be_v eschew_v but_o a_o body_n proper_a and_o incorruptible_a must_v be_v receive_v wherein_o they_o may_v more_o convenient_o rejoice_v then_o wail_v and_o lament_v in_o any_o that_o be_v corruptible_a so_o shall_v there_o be_v in_o they_o no_o direful_a wretchedness_n and_o calamity_n which_o virgil_n conclude_v out_o of_o plato_n when_o he_o say_v rursus_fw-la et_fw-la incipiant_fw-la in_o corpore_fw-la velle_fw-la reverti_fw-la that_o be_v to_o say_v and_o lo_o they_o now_o begin_v to_o have_v a_o willing_a mind_n for_o to_o return_v so_o corpse_n again_o so_o i_o say_v they_o shall_v not_o have_v a_o desire_n to_o return_v to_o other_o body_n see_v they_o shall_v have_v body_n eternal_o with_o they_o into_o the_o which_o they_o shall_v covet_v to_o return_v it_o be_v therefore_o a_o more_o honest_a thing_n to_o believe_v that_o which_o the_o saint_n and_o holy_a angel_n have_v show_v which_o the_o prophet_n have_v speak_v by_o the_o instinct_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o the_o messenger_n of_o christ_n our_o saviour_n have_v preach_v which_o the_o bless_a apostle_n have_v teach_v and_o write_v to_o wit_n that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o resurrection_n of_o our_o mortal_a body_n or_o that_o man_n soul_n shall_v once_o return_v unto_o their_o own_o proper_a body_n and_o those_o
