to_o understand_v the_o soul_n by_o the_o soul_n it_o become_v not_o only_o a_o trouble_a and_o abuse_a object_n but_o a_o crooked_a instrument_n and_o we_o here_o can_v consider_v it_o just_a as_o

we_o shall_v be_v alive_a and_o live_v with_o christ_n and_o yet_o do_v no_o act_n of_o life_n the_o body_n when_o it_o be_v asleep_o do_v many_o and_o if_o the_o soul_n do_v none_o the_o principle_n

nothing_o else_o it_o can_v do_v but_o this_o it_o can_v for_o it_o be_v but_o a_o weak_a and_o a_o unlearned_a proposition_n to_o say_v that_o the_o soul_n can_v do_v nothing_o of_o itself_o nothing_o without_o the_o phantasm_n and_o provision_n of_o the_o body_n for_o 1._o in_o this_o life_n the_o soul_n have_v one_o principle_n clear_o separate_v abstract_a &_o immaterial_a i_o mean_v the_o spirit_n of_o grace_n which_o be_v a_o principle_n of_o life_n and_o action_n and_o in_o many_o instance_n do_v not_o all_o at_o communicate_v with_o matter_n as_o in_o the_o infusion_n

vision_n rapture_n intuitive_a knowledge_n and_o consideration_n of_o its_o self_n act_n of_o volition_n and_o reflex_n act_n of_o understanding_n be_v proper_a to_o the_o soul._n 3._o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v observable_a that_o s._n paul_n say_v that_o he_o know_v not_o whether_o his_o vision_n and_o rapture_n be_v in_o or_o out_o of_o the_o body_n for_o by_o that_o we_o see_v his_o judgement_n of_o the_o thing_n that_o one_o be_v as_o likely_a as_o the_o other_o neither_o of_o they_o impossible_a or_o unreasonable_a and_o therefore_o that_o the_o soul_n be_v as_o capable_a of_o action_n alone_o as_o in_o conjunction_n 4._o if_o in_o the_o state_n of_o blessedness_n there_o be_v some_o action_n of_o the_o soul_n which_o do_v not_o pass_v through_o the_o body_n such_o as_o contemplation_n of_o god_n and_o converse_v with_o spirit_n and_o receive_v those_o influence_n and_o rare_a immission_n which_o come_v from_o the_o holy_a and_o mysterious_a trinity_n make_v up_o the_o crown_n of_o glory_n it_o follow_v that_o the_o necessity_n of_o the_o body_n ministry_n be_v but_o during_o the_o state_n of_o this_o life_n and_o as_o long_o as_o it_o converse_v with_o fire_n and_o water_n and_o life_n with_o corn_n and_o flesh_n and_o be_v feed_v by_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o material_a appetits_fw-fr which_o necessity_n and_o manner_n of_o conversation_n when_o it_o cease_v it_o can_v be_v no_o long_o necessary_a for_o the_o soul_n to_o be_v serve_v by_o phantasm_n and_o material_a representation_n 5._o and_o therefore_o when_o the_o body_n shall_v be_v reunite_v it_o shall_v be_v so_o order_v that_o then_o the_o body_n shall_v confess_v it_o give_v not_o any_o thing_n but_o receive_v all_o its_o be_v and_o operation_n its_o manner_n and_o abode_n from_o the_o soul_n and_o that_o then_o it_o come_v not_o to_o serve_v a_o necessity_n but_o to_o partake_v a_o glory_n for_o as_o the_o operation_n of_o the_o soul_n in_o this_o life_n begin_v in_o the_o body_n and_o by_o it_o the_o object_n be_v transmit_v to_o the_o soul_n so_o than_o they_o shall_v begin_v in_o the_o soul_n and_o pass_v to_o the_o body_n and_o as_o the_o operation_n of_o the_o soul_n by_o reason_n of_o its_o dependence_n on_o the_o body_n be_v animal_n natural_a and_o material_a so_o in_o the_o resurrection_n the_o body_n shall_v be_v spiritual_a by_o reason_n of_o the_o preeminence_n influence_n and_o prime_a operation_n of_o the_o soul._n now_o between_o these_o two_o state_n stand_v the_o state_n of_o separation_n in_o which_o the_o operation_n of_o the_o soul_n be_v of_o a_o middle_a nature_n that_o be_v not_o so_o spiritual_a as_o in_o the_o resurrection_n and_o not_o so_o animal_n and_o natural_a as_o in_o the_o state_n of_o conjunction_n to_o all_o which_o i_o add_v this_o consideration_n that_o our_o soul_n have_v the_o same_o condition_n that_o christ_n soul_n have_v in_o the_o state_n of_o separation_n because_o he_o take_v on_o he_o all_o our_o nature_n and_o all_o our_o condition_n and_o it_o be_v certain_a christ_n soul_n in_o the_o three_o day_n of_o his_o separation_n do_v exercise_v act_n of_o life_n of_o joy_n and_o triumph_n and_o do_v not_o sleep_v but_o visit_v the_o soul_n of_o the_o father_n trample_v upon_o the_o pride_n of_o devil_n and_o satisfy_v those_o long_a soul_n which_o be_v prisoner_n of_o hope_n and_o from_o all_o this_o we_o may_v conclude_v that_o the_o soul_n of_o all_o the_o servant_n of_o christ_n be_v alive_a and_o therefore_o do_v the_o action_n of_o life_n and_o proper_a to_o their_o state_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v high_o probable_a that_o the_o soul_n work_v clear_a and_o understand_v
desire_n of_o god_n and_o this_o i_o say_v be_v the_o great_a benefit_n of_o the_o spirit_n which_o god_n have_v give_v to_o we_o as_o a_o antidote_n against_o worldly_a pleasure_n and_o therefore_o
