that_o there_o be_v great_a difference_n betwixt_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n and_o of_o brute_n beast_n they_o agree_v that_o god_n use_v other_o mean_n in_o the_o procreation_n and_o produce_v of_o

i_o omit_v here_o many_o other_o opinion_n touch_v this_o matter_n which_o come_v not_o so_o near_o unto_o the_o truth_n namely_o a_o great_a controversy_n between_o the_o doctor_n in_o divinity_n
