reason_n and_o will_n and_o no_o more_o but_o i_o shall_v discourse_v the_o matter_n a_o little_a further_o with_o this_o author_n though_o yet_o as_o brief_o as_o i_o can_v and_o first_o of_o all_o i_o lay_v down_o this_o as_o certain_o true_a that_o if_o one_o single_a reason_n and_o one_o single_a will_n be_v sufficient_a to_o give_v a_o account_n of_o all_o the_o act_n office_n and_o operation_n belong_v to_o the_o nature_n of_o man_n than_o it_o be_v superfluous_a and_o consequent_o absurd_a to_o assert_v any_o more_o but_o the_o former_a be_v undoubted_o true_a and_o to_o show_v that_o it_o be_v so_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v what_o human_a reason_n and_o the_o office_n of_o it_o proper_o be_v and_o so_o for_o the_o human_a will_n and_o the_o proper_a act_n and_o function_n of_o that_o now_o they_o be_v both_o of_o they_o intellectual_a faculty_n and_o thereby_o distinguish_v from_o and_o superior_a to_o all_o act_n of_o sensation_n whether_o external_n or_o internal_a and_o all_o act_n of_o desire_n and_o appetition_n proceed_v from_o the_o sensitive_a appetite_n and_o as_o they_o be_v superior_a to_o they_o so_o it_o be_v the_o proper_a office_n of_o reason_n to_o arbitrate_v upon_o judge_v of_o and_o direct_v all_o the_o apprehension_n and_o report_n of_o the_o sense_n and_o upon_o such_o a_o judgement_n pass_v upon_o they_o to_o declare_v authoritative_o what_o ought_v or_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v do_v and_o in_o the_o like_a manner_n the_o will_n be_v to_o govern_v and_o control_v all_o the_o inferior_a appetite_n desire_n and_o inclination_n by_o a_o effectual_a disposal_n of_o they_o to_o what_o shall_v or_o shall_v not_o be_v do_v and_o this_o be_v the_o order_n and_o oeconomy_n of_o all_o the_o rational_a and_o sensitive_a power_n and_o faculty_n of_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n and_o of_o the_o function_n and_o operation_n respective_o belong_v to_o they_o and_o now_o i_o desire_v any_o one_o to_o show_v i_o what_o use_v there_o be_v of_o a_o second_o reason_n and_o a_o second_o will_n and_o what_o be_v those_o particular_a proper_a act_n proceed_v from_o they_o which_o be_v neither_o intellectual_a nor_o sensitive_a for_o if_o they_o be_v either_o of_o these_o all_o such_o act_n have_v be_v full_o account_v for_o from_o the_o intellectual_a and_o sensitive_a principle_n already_o mention_v and_o therefore_o must_v needs_o be_v superfluous_a again_o i_o will_v know_v whether_o these_o two_o reason_n be_v subordinate_a so_o that_o one_o be_v subject_a to_o and_o govern_v by_o the_o other_o or_o coordinate_a and_o equal_a and_o neither_o of_o they_o subject_n to_o or_o govern_v by_o the_o other_o if_o they_o be_v subordinate_a the_o inferior_a be_v useless_a since_o the_o act_n proceed_v from_o both_o be_v equal_o act_v of_o reason_n the_o superior_a can_v and_o may_v dictate_v all_o that_o the_o inferior_a can_v suggest_v immediate_o by_o itself_o and_o without_o the_o subordinate_a operation_n of_o the_o other_o and_o what_o i_o have_v say_v of_o a_o human_a reason_n will_v proportionable_o hold_v in_o a_o human_a will_n but_o if_o on_o the_o other_o side_n there_o be_v two_o coordinate_a reason_n and_o two_o coordinate_a will_n neither_o of_o they_o subject_n to_o or_o govern_v by_o the_o other_o then_o in_o the_o direction_n and_o disposal_n of_o man_n action_n they_o either_o suggest_v the_o very_a same_o direction_n and_o command_n or_o such_o as_o be_v quite_o different_a and_o sometime_o perhaps_o contrary_a if_o the_o very_a same_o than_o one_o of_o the_o reason_n and_o one_o of_o the_o will_n be_v again_o superfluous_a for_o what_o need_n can_v there_o be_v of_o two_o to_o suggest_v the_o very_a same_o thing_n but_o if_o these_o two_o reason_n suggest_v different_a or_o contrary_a direction_n and_o these_o two_o will_n exert_v two_o different_a or_o contrary_a influence_n upon_o the_o inferior_a and_o sensitive_a part_n than_o the_o soul_n must_v be_v distract_v between_o both_o and_o not_o able_a to_o proceed_v determinate_o to_o action_n but_o the_o two_o reason_n must_v dispute_v the_o matter_n and_o the_o two_o will_n must_v fight_v it_o out_o and_o this_o will_v be_v the_o admirable_a harmony_n and_o state_n of_o a_o human_a soul_n if_o it_o be_v here_o object_v that_o we_o sometime_o find_v mention_n in_o scripture_n of_o a_o sensual_a or_o

of_o the_o old_a man_n and_o the_o new_a man_n in_o person_n regenerate_v and_o yet_o i_o can_v from_o hence_o infer_v that_o two_o distinct_a man_n do_v or_o can_v subsist_v in_o one_o person_n and_o therefore_o as_o to_o that_o objection_n of_o a_o carnal_a sensual_a will_n and_o reason_n i_o answer_v that_o reason_n be_v call_v sensual_a when_o it_o direct_v and_o prescribe_v according_a to_o the_o exorbitant_a inclination_n and_o desire_n of_o the_o sensitive_a part_n and_o the_o will_n be_v call_v so_o likewise_o when_o it_o do_v not_o interpose_v its_o sway_n and_o authority_n but_o suffer_v the_o sensitive_a appetite_n to_o take_v their_o own_o course_n without_o control_n so_o that_o this_o term_n sensual_a or_o carnal_a apply_v either_o to_o reason_n or_o will_v do_v not_o import_n or_o infer_v another_o reason_n or_o another_o will_n but_o the_o same_o reason_n and_o will_n under_o different_a and_o sometime_o contrary_a qualification_n and_o otherwise_o act_v and_o behave_v themselves_o than_o according_a to_o their_o natural_a prerogative_n and_o office_n in_o the_o soul_n they_o ought_v to_o do_v it_o be_v indeed_o a_o division_n subjecti_fw-la in_o
