of_o man_n do_v proceed_v from_o one_o only_a fountain_n and_o common_a cause_n the_o soul_n and_o be_v do_v by_o the_o power_n thereof_o the_o body_n of_o itself_o be_v not_o a_o agent_n in_o any_o

any_o divide_n of_o the_o soul_n for_o it_o can_v be_v divide_v neither_o by_o diminish_v the_o part_n of_o the_o soul_n but_o only_o by_o corrupt_v the_o action_n of_o the_o mind_n or_o more_o proper_o by_o corrupt_v the_o next_o instrument_n of_o the_o mind_n this_o may_v be_v conceive_v by_o a_o comparison_n a_o skilful_a artificer_n in_o any_o science_n have_v a_o unfit_a tool_n and_o a_o naughty_a instrument_n to_o work_v withal_o his_o skill_n be_v good_a and_o his_o ability_n be_v sufficient_a but_o his_o instrument_n whereby_o he_o work_v be_v unperfect_a and_o therefore_o he_o

nor_o the_o ability_n of_o work_v but_o because_o it_o be_v a_o corrupt_a instrument_n it_o make_v the_o soul_n to_o bring_v forth_o a_o corrupt_a work_n the_o temptation_n follow_v the_o body_n cause_v the_o trouble_n of_o the_o mind_n two_o way_n either_o by_o melancholy_n or_o by_o other_o strange_a alteration_n in_o the_o part_n of_o the_o body_n which_o oftentimes_o befall_v man_n in_o what_o sort_n we_o shall_v see_v afterward_o for_o it_o be_v a_o very_a common_a thing_n yea_o more_o common_a than_o the_o former_a touch_v melancholy_a sundry_a thing_n be_v to_o be_v consider_v for_o our_o instruction_n and_o for_o the_o remedy_n of_o that_o evil_n and_o first_o of_o all_o if_o it_o be_v ask_v what_o melancholy_n be_v i_o answer_v it_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o earthy_a &_o black_a blood_n that_o be_v special_o in_o the_o spleen_n be_v stop_v which_o convai_v itself_o to_o the_o heart_n and_o the_o brain_n and_o there_o partly_o by_o his_o corrupt_a subsiance_n and_o

melancholy_a ans._n they_o be_v strange_a and_o often_o fearful_a there_o be_v no_o humour_n yea_o nothing_o in_o man_n body_n that_o have_v so_o strange_a effect_n as_o this_o humour_n have_v be_v once_o distemper_v a_o ancient_a divine_a call_v it_o the_o devil_n bait_n because_o the_o devil_n by_o god_n just_a permission_n di●bo●●_n convey_v himself_o into_o this_o humour_n and_o work_v strange_a conceit_n when_o the_o evil_a spirit_n come_v upon_o saul_n it_o so_o tempt_v he_o that_o he_o will_v have_v slay_v he_o that_o be_v next_o unto_o he_o how_o so_o sure_o because_o god_n in_o justice_n withdraw_v his_o spirit_n of_o government_n from_o he_o and_o suffer_v satan_n to_o enter_v into_o the_o humour_n of_o choler_n or_o melancholy_n or_o both_o and_o by_o this_o mean_n cause_v he_o to_o offer_v violence_n to_o david_n now_o the_o effect_n thereof_o in_o particular_a be_v of_o two_o sort_n the_o first_o effect_n be_v in_o the_o brain_n and_o head_n for_o this_o humour_n be_v

but_o it_o be_v a_o ataxy_n or_o absence_n of_o goodness_n and_o uprightness_n in_o the_o thing_n that_o subsist_v therefore_o it_o be_v well_o and_o positivum_fw-la true_o say_v in_o school_n in_o sin_n there_o be_v nothing_o positive_a but_o it_o be_v a_o want_n of_o that_o which_o ought_v to_o be_v or_o subsist_v partly_o in_o the_o nature_n of_o man_n and_o partly_o in_o the_o action_n of_o nature_n thus_o we_o see_v what_o sin_n be_v the_o second_o thing_n to_o be_v consider_v be_v what_o be_v a_o sinner_n proper_o for_o the_o knowledge_n hereof_o we_o must_v consider_v in_o every_o sin_n four_o thing_n first_o the_o fault_n whereby_o god_n be_v offend_v then_o cu●p●_n the_o guilt_n which_o bind_v over_o the_o conscience_n rea●●s_n unto_o punishment_n three_o the_o punishment_n itself_o p●●●_n which_o be_v eternal_a death_n of_o these_o three_o not_o the_o guilt_n or_o punishment_n but_o the_o fault_n or_o offence_n make_v a_o man_n a_o sinner_n but_o here_o be_v a_o further_a difficulty_n when_o a_o man_n have_v commit_v some_o offence_n and_o the_o say_a offence_n be_v do_v and_o pass_v it_o may_v be_v some_o twenty_o or_o thirty_o year_n yet_o the_o party_n offend_v do_v not_o therefore_o cease_v to_o be_v a_o sinner_n now_o than_o i_o demand_v what_o be_v the_o very_a thing_n for_o which_o he_o be_v name_v and_o rearm_v still_o a_o sinner_n in_o the_o time_n present_a the_o offence_n be_v past_a the_o answer_n be_v that_o every_o actual_a sin_n beside_o the_o three_o former_a must_v be_v consider_v with_o a_o four_o thing_n to_o wit_n a_o certain_a stain_n or_o blot_n which_o it_o imprint_n and_o leaf_n in_o the_o macul●_n offender_n as_o a_o fruit_n and_o that_o be_v a_o inclination_n or_o evil_a disposition_n of_o the_o heart_n whereby_o it_o become_v apt_a or_o pronener_n to_o the_o offence_n do_v or_o to_o any_o other_o sin_n for_o look_v as_o the_o dropsy_n man_n the_o more_o he_o drink_v the_o dry_a he_o be_v and_o the_o more_o he_o still_o desire_v to_o drink_v even_o so_o a_o sinner_n the_o more_o he_o sin_n the_o apt_a be_v he_o to_o sin_n and_o more_o desirous_a to_o keep_v still_o a_o course_n in_o wickedness_n and_o as_o a_o man_n that_o look_v upon_o the_o sun_n if_o he_o turn_v his_o face_n away_o remain_v turn_v until_o he_o turn_v himself_o again_o so_o he_o that_o turn_v from_o god_n by_o any_o sin_n make_v himself_o a_o sinner_n and_o so_o remain_v until_o he_o turn_v himself_o again_o by_o repentance_n thus_o david_n be_v a_o sinner_n not_o only_o in_o the_o very_a act_n of_o his_o adultery_n and_o murder_n but_o even_o when_o the_o act_n be_v do_v and_o pass_v he_o remain_v still_o a_o murderer_n and_o a_o adulterer_n because_o a_o new_a or_o rather_o a_o renew_a proneness_n to_o these_o and_o all_o other_o sin_n take_v place_n in_o his_o heart_n by_o his_o fall_n and_o get_v strength_n till_o he_o turn_v to_o god_n by_o repentance_n upon_o the_o admonition_n of_o the_o prophet_n the_o thing_n then_o whereby_o a_o sinner_n be_v term_v a_o sinner_n be_v the_o fault_n together_o with_o the_o fruit_n thereof_o namely_o the_o blot_n imprint_v in_o the_o soul_n so_o oft_o as_o man_n do_v actual_o offend_v the_o use_n of_o this_o doctrine_n touch_v sin_n be_v two_o fold_n first_o by_o it_o we_o learn_v and_o see_v what_o be_v original_a sin_n whereby_o a_o infant_n in_o the_o first_o conception_n and_o birth_n be_v indeed_o a_o sinner_n every_o infant_n must_v be_v consider_v as_o a_o part_n of_o adam_n proceed_v of_o he_o and_o partake_n of_o his_o nature_n and_o thereby_o it_o be_v make_v a_o sinner_n not_o only_o by_o imputation_n of_o adam_n offence_n but_o also_o by_o propagation_n of_o a_o aptness_n &_o proneness_n unto_o every_o evil_a receive_v together_o with_o nature_n from_o adam_n and_o thus_o ought_v we_o to_o conceive_v original_a sin_n not_o to_o be_v the_o corruption_n of_o nature_n alone_o but_o adam_n first_o offence_n impute_v with_o the_o fruit_n thereof_o the_o corruption_n of_o nature_n which_o be_v a_o inclination_n unto_o every_o evil_n derive_v together_o with_o nature_n from_o our_o first_o parent_n second_o by_o this_o we_o be_v teach_v to_o take_v heed_n of_o all_o and_o every_o sin_n whether_o it_o be_v in_o thought_n word_n or_o deed_n because_o the_o commit_v thereof_o though_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o act_n it_o pass_v away_o in_o the_o do_n yet_o it_o breed_v and_o increase_v a_o wicked_a disposition_n in_o the_o heart_n as_o have_v be_v say_v to_o the_o offence_n do_v or_o any_o other_o sin_n man_n deceive_v themselves_o that_o think_v all_o the_o evil_a of_o sin_n to_o be_v only_o in_o the_o act_n of_o sin_v &_o to_o go_v no_o further_o whereas_o indeed_o every_o offence_n have_v a_o certain_a blot_n go_v with_o it_o that_o corrupt_v the_o heart_n and_o cause_v man_n to_o delight_n and_o lie_v in_o his_o offence_n which_o lie_v in_o sin_n be_v a_o great_a cause_n of_o damnation_n than_o the_o very_a sin_n itself_o this_o therefore_o must_v admonish_v we_o to_o take_v heed_n lest_o we_o continue_v in_o any_o sin_n and_o if_o it_o fall_v out_o that_o through_o infirmity_n we_o be_v overtake_v by_o any_o tentation_n we_o must_v labour_v to_o rise_v again_o and_o turn_v from_o our_o sin_n to_o god_n by_o new_a and_o speedy_a repentance_n thus_o much_o of_o sin_n itself_o now_o follow_v the_o
