with_o they_o for_o two_o reason_n 1._o because_o the_o apostle_n paul_n speak_v large_o of_o the_o last_o resurrection_n do_v restrain_v it_o to_o mankind_n except_v dead_a bird_n beast_n and_o

the_o second_o adam_n 2._o the_o reason_n why_o dead_a man_n and_o woman_n shall_v rise_v again_o be_v because_o they_o have_v reasonable_a soul_n live_v while_o their_o body_n be_v dead_a as_o abraham_n isaac_n jacob_n dives_n lazarus_n be_v now_o alive_a in_o their_o soul_n their_o body_n be_v dead_a but_o other_o creature_n as_o bird_n beast_n fish_n have_v no_o soul_n live_v while_o their_o body_n be_v dead_a for_o there_o be_v this_o difference_n betwixt_o a_o man_n and_o a_o beast_n that_o when_o a_o man_n die_v his_o spirit_n live_v and_o ascend_v to_o god_n that_o give_v it_o but_o when_o a_o beast_n die_v his_o spirit_n die_v with_o
he_o and_o return_n to_o dust_n which_o be_v a_o matter_n well_o know_v &_o consider_v but_o of_o a_o few_o therefore_o solomon_n say_v who_o know_v the_o spirit_n of_o a_o man_n that_o go_v upward_o

proper_a only_o unto_o mankind_n and_o not_o common_a to_o other_o creature_n with_o they_o but_o here_o it_o may_v be_v object_v 1._o there_o shall_v be_v object_n 1_o other_o creature_n in_o the_o
