that_o the_o soul_n of_o this_o person_n shall_v on_o that_o very_a day_n be_v present_a with_o his_o deity_n in_o heaven_n now_o though_o our_o lord_n be_v god_n bless_v for_o ever_o there_o be_v no_o probability_n that_o he_o have_v any_o regard_n to_o his_o deity_n in_o the_o speak_n of_o those_o word_n for_o beside_o that_o his_o divinity_n be_v not_o then_o so_o clear_o reveal_v as_o

let_v it_o be_v grant_v that_o he_o understand_v his_o divinity_n so_o it_o be_v in_o my_o opinion_n that_o it_o can_v come_v into_o a_o sound_a mind_n that_o christ_n shall_v promise_v to_o the_o

thereof_o or_o the_o happiness_n that_o do_v attend_v it_o moreover_o it_o have_v be_v much_o more_o to_o the_o purpose_n to_o have_v be_v content_a to_o have_v consent_v to_o be_v mindful_a of_o he_o when_o he_o come_v into_o his_o kingdom_n as_o he_o desire_v then_o by_o great_a word_n to_o give_v he_o occasion_n to_o hope_v for_o content_n and_o happiness_n near_o at_o hand_n and_o afterward_o fill_v this_o soul_n which_o he_o have_v make_v so_o desirous_a of_o happiness_n with_o nothing_o but_o darkness_n and_o forgetfulness_n if_o the_o spirit_n of_o our_o lord_n ascend_v into_o paradise_n doubtless_o it_o be_v not_o to_o sleep_v there_o for_o the_o little_a time_n of_o its_o separation_n from_o the_o body_n but_o to_o receive_v inexpressible_a consolation_n in_o the_o

very_o far_o from_o the_o place_n whereof_o he_o have_v raise_v in_o they_o very_o strange_a and_o pleasant_a hope_n and_o expectation_n and_o this_o good_a god_n which_o have_v have_v so_o much_o

disposition_n of_o the_o faculty_n of_o our_o soul_n we_o do_v here_o suppose_v that_o after_o death_n they_o will_v be_v perfect_o well_o constitute_v since_o they_o will_v be_v deliver_v from_o

you_o will_v yet_o much_o advance_v the_o excellence_n of_o that_o estate_n whereof_o i_o have_v form_v the_o idea_n in_o the_o mean_a time_n all_o these_o infirmity_n have_v their_o root_n in_o we_o in_o that_o we_o have_v a_o body_n compound_v of_o the_o element_n in_o the_o same_o manner_n as_o be_v the_o body_n of_o all_o other_o animal_n and_o in_o that_o we_o be_v endue_v with_o a_o soul_n

in_o some_o high_a degree_n of_o perfection_n and_o this_o composition_n of_o the_o element_n and_o of_o a_o soul_n vegetative_a and_o sensitive_a in_o the_o constitution_n of_o our_o essence_n be_v a_o cause_n that_o although_o the_o providence_n of_o god_n shall_v hinder_v as_o it_o do_v in_o our_o integrity_n our_o be_v sick_a or_o wound_a so_o it_o be_v that_o our_o body_n in_o themselves_o will_v be_v capable_a of_o the_o impression_n of_o the_o cause_n of_o all_o these_o alteration_n and_o that_o although_o god_n shall_v perpetual_o preserve_v we_o from_o death_n nevertheless_o the_o

if_o he_o have_v persevere_v in_o his_o innocence_n will_v have_v proceed_v from_o the_o care_n of_o the_o divine_a providence_n and_o not_o from_o the_o temperature_n of_o his_o body_n it_o be_v therefore_o necessary_a that_o although_o our_o body_n be_v raise_v again_o and_o remake_v of_o the_o same_o matter_n of_o which_o they_o be_v now_o compound_v the_o constitution_n of_o they_o must_v
