the_o nature_n and_o unity_n of_o god_n be_v both_o infinite_o diverse_a from_o we_o &_o therefore_o unless_o finite_a reason_n shall_v limit_v infinity_o it_o must_v acknowledge_v that_o it_o may_v be_v so_o and_o faith_n believe_v that_o it_o be_v so_o but_o neither_o reason_n nor_o faith_n can_v possible_o comprehend_v how_o it_o be_v so_o because_o it_o be_v infinite_o and_o incomprehensible_o so_o the_o incarnation_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v a_o mystery_n almost_o as_o wonderful_a as_o the_o former_a and_o evident_o set_v forth_o the_o mystery_n of_o the_o

which_o be_v incarnate_a beside_o there_o be_v two_o nature_n infinite_o diverse_a unite_v in_o one_o person_n therefore_o arrian_n and_o socinian_o who_o deny_v the_o divinity_n of_o christ_n do_v also_o deny_v the_o trinity_n which_o be_v the_o ground_n thereof_o this_o mystery_n be_v so_o far_o above_o all_o natural_a reason_n that_o it_o can_v possible_o be_v comprehend_v by_o it_o and_o therefore_o most_o improbable_a to_o be_v the_o invention_n or_o conception_n thereof_o for_o certain_o reason_n will_v rather_o have_v produce_v something_o like_o itself_o or_o at_o least_o that_o
