matter_n but_o something_o else_o you_o know_v not_o what_o i_o shall_v expect_v your_o interpretation_n by_o the_o next_o no_o doubt_n but_o you_o will_v give_v i_o a_o very_a fair_a occasion_n to_o whip_v you_o but_o you_o go_v on_o and_o i_o will_v follow_v this_o description_n say_v you_o be_v a_o hideous_a empty_a fancy_n and_o why_o so_o be_v it_o more_o hideous_a than_o your_o horrid_a cave_n and_o womb_n of_o dredded_a night_n it_o seem_v you_o be_v in_o a_o bodily_a fear_n when_o you_o pen_v this_o verse_n but_o there_o be_v another_o fault_n it_o convey_v not_o so_o much_o to_o the_o understanding_n as_o aristotle_n description_n of_o the_o matter_n for_o he_o describe_v it_o to_o be_v the_o first_o subject_n out_o of_o which_o every_o thing_n be_v but_o prithee_o mastix_fw-la what_o be_v that_o subject_a nec_fw-la quid_fw-la nec_fw-la quale_fw-la nec_fw-la quantum_fw-la why_o this_o convey_v a_o just_a nothing_o to_o the_o understanding_n sirrah_n aristotle_n matter_n which_o be_v nothing_o to_o the_o matter_n be_v not_o in_o nature_n {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o neither_o be_v it_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o and_o prithee_o what_o be_v it_o then_o i_o shall_v rack_v you_o for_o this_o when_o you_o come_v to_o your_o answer_n but_o you_o proceed_v and_o tell_v i_o to_o call_v this_o matter_n primitive_a water_n be_v but_o metaphor_n and_o poetry_n if_o i_o call_v it_o so_o i_o grant_v thy_o argument_n but_o what_o do_v thou_o understand_v by_o primitive_a water_n i_o believe_v the_o darkness_n former_o mention_v i_o never_o call_v it_o water_n mastix_fw-la and_o yet_o if_o i_o have_v it_o have_v be_v no_o rhetoric_n but_o philosophy_n with_o aristotle_n it_o be_v water_n in_fw-la potentiâ_fw-la but_o a_o cloud_n actu_fw-la have_v you_o read_v my_o book_n with_o attention_n as_o you_o tell_v i_o you_o do_v in_o your_o pistol_n you_o have_v find_v there_o a_o first_o matter_n which_o be_v a_o horrible_a empty_a darkness_n and_o after_o that_o a_o second_o which_o be_v a_o primitive_a water_n into_o which_o that_o darkness_n be_v condense_v this_o second_o matter_n be_v it_o who_o be_v bosom_n the_o divine_a light_n pierce_v and_o now_o i_o will_v see_v what_o darkness_n you_o can_v find_v in_o this_o light_n but_o mastix_fw-la you_o avoid_v the_o light_n for_o your_o work_n be_v not_o good_a and_o fall_v into_o your_o horrid_a cave_n again_o you_o tell_v i_o they_o must_v be_v water_n and_o dark_a i_o hope_v thou_o do_v not_o conceive_v the_o world_n be_v make_v of_o ink_n like_o thy_o observation_n i_o can_v indeed_o suppose_v thou_o so_o mad_a but_o i_o will_v tell_v thou_o what_o thou_o do_v conceive_v thou_o do_v fancy_n that_o by_o primitive_a water_n i_o understand_v the_o primitive_a darkness_n and_o so_o thou_o do_v comment_n where_o thou_o do_v not_o understand_v but_o this_o mistake_n be_v necessary_a they_o must_v be_v dark_a water_n that_o the_o light_n may_v shine_v in_o they_o do_v not_o the_o light_n shine_v then_o in_o clear_a water_n and_o that_o more_o distinct_o than_o in_o puddle_n indeed_o thou_o may_v well_o think_v not_o for_o thy_o moor_n face_n nay_o thy_o mind_n may_v be_v better_o see_v in_o thy_o ink_n than_o in_o thy_o glass_n but_o some_o on_o sirrah_n the_o holy_a spirit_n say_v you_o be_v not_o able_a to_o see_v before_o the_o light_n shine_v upon_o the_o water_n how_o then_o do_v he_o find_v the_o water_n out_o and_o move_v upon_o it_o when_o there_o be_v darkness_n and_o no_o light_n upon_o the_o face_n of_o the_o deep_a as_o the_o scripture_n itself_o tell_v thou_o blasphemous_a wretch_n do_v thou_o make_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n blind_a he_o that_o make_v the_o eye_n shall_v not_o he_o see_v but_o this_o be_v not_o all_o your_o blasphemy_n your_o boldness_n to_o make_v observation_n upon_o theomagic_n have_v discover_v your_o close_a impiety_n and_o teach_v i_o what_o the_o religion_n of_o a_o presbyterian_a be_v be_v the_o matter_n say_v you_o so_o stiff_o and_o clammy_a dark_a as_o to_o be_v able_a to_o keep_v out_o the_o divine_a light_n true_o the_o matter_n be_v not_o stiff_a and_o what_o clammy_a signify_v i_o know_v but_o clammy-dark_n be_v a_o hard_a word_n which_o you_o must_v put_v in_o the_o rear_n of_o your_o psychodia_n but_o hear_v i_o thou_o ass_n with_o thy_o long_a ear_n do_v thou_o ask_v i_o if_o the_o matter_n be_v able_a to_o keep_v out_o the_o divine_a light_n when_o thou_o do_v make_v thy_o

pass_n i_o know_v not_o what_o to_o think_v of_o it_o but_o here_o come_v a_o inference_n will_v pay_v i_o for_o all_o if_o the_o matter_n can_v not_o exclude_v the_o divine_a light_n than_o say_v you_o the_o idea_n shine_v in_o the_o water_n as_o soon_o as_o god_n be_v why_o how_o now_o villain_n assoon_o as_o god_n be_v prithee_o how_o soon_o be_v that_o do_v thou_o think_v be_v there_o a_o time_n when_o he_o be_v not_o but_o i_o haste_v to_o answer_v thy_o objection_n the_o divine_a idea_n can_v not_o shine_v in_o the_o water_n assoon_o as_o god_n be_v for_o god_n be_v ab_fw-la
