be_v by_o necessity_n turn_v towards_o body_n that_o their_o soul_n love_v only_a body_n and_o all_o her_o motion_n confine_v itself_o to_o some_o sensible_a thing_n from_o the_o moment_n she_o be_v

you_o do_v not_o doubt_v of_o this_o for_o after_o all_o we_o must_v at_o least_o eat_v to_o live_v and_o we_o can_v eat_v but_o our_o brain_n receive_v some_o impression_n of_o it_o since_o we_o

of_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v present_a to_o the_o mind_n at_o the_o time_n of_o that_o impression_n that_o be_v to_o say_v to_o the_o love_n of_o this_o or_o that_o body_n for_o body_n only_o can_v act_v on_o the_o brain_n truth_n see_v the_o seven_o chapter_n of_o the_o 2d_o book_n of_o the_o inquiry_n after_o truth_n in_o short_a there_o be_v no_o woman_n but_o have_v in_o her_o brain_n some_o step_n and_o vestige_n or_o some_o motion_n of_o spirit_n which_o make_v she_o think_v and_o carry_v she_o to_o sensible_a thing_n now_o when_o the_o child_n be_v in_o his_o mother_n womb_n he_o feel_v the_o same_o impression_n and_o emotion_n of_o spirit_n with_o his_o mother_n therefore_o in_o that_o state_n he_o know_v and_o love_v body_n the_o daily_a instance_n we_o have_v of_o child_n that_o fear_v or_o abhor_v those_o thing_n that_o fright_v their_o mother_n whilst_o they_o be_v with_o child_n sufficient_o show_v that_o they_o have_v have_v the_o same_o impression_n and_o consequent_o the_o same_o idea_n and_o passion_n as_o their_o mother_n since_o they_o sometime_o never_o see_v since_o they_o be_v bear_v those_o thing_n which_o they_o so_o much_o abhor_v and_o those_o instance_n even_o show_v we_o that_o the_o impression_n and_o agitation_n be_v great_a and_o consequent_o the_o idea_n and_o passion_n more_o lively_a in_o child_n than_o in_o their_o mother_n since_o they_o remain_v affect_v with_o they_o and_o oftentimes_o their_o mother_n no_o more_o remember_v it_o i_o perceive_v erastus_n that_o you_o wonder_v to_o hear_v i_o say_v that_o child_n see_v

and_o full_a of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n how_o come_v their_o child_n to_o be_v sinner_n theod._n it_o be_v because_o the_o love_n of_o god_n do_v not_o communicate_v itself_o like_o the_o love_n of_o body_n the_o reason_n whereof_o be_v that_o god_n be_v not_o sensible_a and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o step_n in_o the_o brain_n that_o by_o the_o institution_n of_o nature_n do_v represent_v god_n nor_o any_o of_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v pure_o intelligible_a a_o woman_n may_v well_o represent_v to_o herself_o god_n in_o the_o form_n of_o a_o reverend_n old_a man_n but_o whilst_o she_o think_v on_o god_n her_o child_n shall_v think_v on_o a_o old_a man_n when_o she_o love_v god_n her_o child_n will_v love_v old_a man_n and_o this_o love_n of_o old_a man_n do_v not_o a_o justify_v all_o the_o vestiges_n in_o the_o brain_n of_o mother_n communicate_v themselves_o to_o child_n but_o the_o idea_n that_o be_v join_v to_o those_o vestiges_n by_o the_o will_n of_o man_n or_o by_o the_o identity_n of_o time_n and_o not_o by_o nature_n do_v not_o communicate_v themselves_o to_o they_o for_o child_n in_o the_o womb_n be_v not_o as_o know_v and_o holy_a as_o their_o mother_n erast_n but_o theodore_n child_n be_v not_o free_a i_o own_o they_o love_v body_n but_o they_o can_v hinder_v themselves_o from_o love_v they_o how_o then_o be_v they_o sinner_n how_o be_v they_o corrupt_v theod._n their_o sin_n be_v not_o of_o their_o own_o choose_n nor_o free_a and_o voluntary_a yet_o they_o be_v corrupt_v for_o all_o spirit_n that_o be_v averse_a from_o god_n and_o incline_v towards_o corporeal_a being_n do_v not_o follow_v god_n order_n if_o it_o be_v true_a that_o god_n will_v be_v love_v more_o than_o body_n concupiscence_n be_v not_o a_o sin_n in_o virtuous_a person_n because_o there_o be_v in_o they_o a_o love_n of_o choice_n that_o oppose_v it_o concupiscence_n do_v not_o reign_v in_o they_o but_o it_o reign_v in_o child_n their_o natural_a love_n be_v bad_a and_o they_o have_v no_o other_o when_o two_o sort_n of_o love_n be_v to_o be_v find_v in_o a_o heart_n god_n regard_v only_o that_o love_n which_o be_v free_a so_o dream_n be_v not_o sinful_a in_o pious_a man_n because_o the_o love_n of_o choice_n that_o go_v before_o leave_v in_o the_o soul_n a_o disposition_n that_o carry_v and_o turn_v she_o towards_o god_n but_o in_o a_o
