for_o the_o former_a have_v no_o reason_n to_o inquire_v or_o with_o industr_v to_o search_v because_o those_o thing_n of_o god_n only_o concern_v he_o by_o which_o he_o be_v rule_v as_o his_o

reason_n can_v attain_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n by_o the_o creature_n but_o the_o creature_n induce_n to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n as_o effect_n induce_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o cause_n that_o therefore_o only_o can_v be_v know_v of_o god_n which_o be_v necessary_a to_o be_v affirm_v of_o he_o as_o he_o be_v the_o beginning_n and_o cause_n of_o the_o creature_n but_o the_o creative_a virtue_n of_o god_n be_v common_a to_o the_o whole_a trinity_n therefore_o it_o appertaine_n to_o the_o unity_n of_o the_o essence_n not_o to_o the_o trinity_n of_o the_o person_n thus_o far_o he_o and_o this_o be_v the_o first_o of_o his_o argument_n i_o will_v answer_v they_o by_o degree_n one_o by_o one_o for_o perspicuity_n sake_n to_o this_o first_o i_o shall_v answer_v that_o although_o the_o great_a part_n of_o knowledge_n be_v either_o draw_v from_o the_o cause_n to_o the_o effect_n aequiparance_n or_o from_o the_o effect_n to_o the_o cause_n and_o the_o first_o only_o can_v be_v apply_v to_o god_n who_o have_v no_o cause_n and_o who_o effect_n some_o way_n or_o other_o all_o thing_n be_v as_o from_o that_o one_o infinite_a be_v god_n yet_o raymund_n lul_n who_o i_o most_o honour_n in_o this_o case_n have_v think_v of_o other_o way_n of_o argue_v of_o as_o great_a force_n and_o convince_a a_o man_n understanding_n as_o these_o to_o wit_n demonstratio_fw-la per_fw-la aequiparantiam_fw-la by_o the_o proportion_n and_o equality_n of_o thing_n and_o per_fw-la similitudimem_fw-la by_o their_o likeness_n that_o by_o equiparance_n or_o equivalence_n he_o conceive_v to_o be_v when_o by_o one_o or_o two_o of_o a_o equal_a excellency_n a_o other_o quality_n be_v prove_v to_o be_v as_o excellent_a as_o thus_o because_o god_n be_v infinite_o excellent_a therefore_o he_o be_v infinite_o know_v infinite_o good_a again_o this_o argument_n from_o equivalence_n may_v be_v bring_v from_o the_o power_n to_o the_o act_n thus_o the_o

i_o apprehend_v that_o a_o man_n may_v prove_v the_o trinity_n although_o not_o by_o the_o effect_n of_o god_n in_o the_o creature_n as_o effect_n sect._n 4._o his_o second_o argument_n be_v that_o to_o prove_v the_o trinity_n by_o reason_n be_v derogatory_n from_o faith_n argum._n which_o be_v of_o thing_n invisible_a as_o it_o be_v heb._n 11._o now_o say_v he_o if_o these_o thing_n be_v provable_a by_o reason_n they_o be_v not_o unseen_a that_o be_v of_o natural_a understanding_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o from_o the_o same_o inconvenience_n the_o infinite_a create_a power_n and_o act_n of_o create_v be_v not_o provable_a by_o reason_n which_o be_v a_o article_n of_o our_o faith_n faith_n and_o although_o we_o can_v not_o prove_v it_o yet_o we_o must_v believe_v it_o which_o both_o he_o and_o his_o follower_n agree_v to_o grant_v second_o i_o answer_v that_o although_o these_o thing_n of_o faith_n be_v unseen_a by_o mere_a natural_a man_n without_o all_o faith_n reason_n yet_o when_o a_o man_n have_v faith_n than_o that_o light_n of_o faith_n may_v show_v he_o this_o or_o that_o thing_n of_o they_o and_o his_o reason_n may_v afterward_o likewise_o discern_v it_o for_o you_o may_v conceive_v a_o weight_n too_o heavy_a for_o a_o weak_a man_n to_o lift_v yet_o when_o a_o strong_a assist'_v he_o he_o can_v do_v it_o with_o he_o which_o before_o he_o can_v not_o without_o he_o or_o as_o you_o may_v see_v a_o weak-sighted_a man_n by_o the_o help_n of_o his_o spectacle_n read'_v those_o word_n which_o else_o he_o can_v not_o have_v read_v without_o they_o yet_o have_v clear_o read_v they_o with_o spectacle_n can_v after_o by_o his_o weak_a sight_n read_v they_o without_o because_o the_o sense_n be_v in_o his_o head_n so_o a_o man_n who_o by_o his_o own_o weak_a sight_n of_o his_o own_o reason_n can_v lift_v such_o a_o burden_n as_o the_o trinity_n yet_o have_v the_o assistance_n of_o a_o strong_a his_o faith_n he_o can_v then_o lift_v up_o his_o arm_n of_o reason_n to_o bear_v it_o likewise_o so_o he_o that_o be_v force_v to_o use_v spectacle_n assistant_n to_o his_o reason_n whereby_o he_o may_v apprehend_v this_o mystery_n yet_o have_v the_o sense_n of_o it_o in_o his_o head_n by_o that_o can_v afterward_o read_v it_o by_o reason_n so_o though_o these_o holy_a mystery_n be_v invisible_a to_o mere_a natural_a man_n yet_o when_o make_v apparent_a by_o faith_n they_o may_v afterward_o be_v discern_v likewise_o by_o reason_n scandal_n another_o argument_n be_v that_o it_o be_v unprofitable_a to_o faith_n for_o say_v he_o when_o
