and_o then_o he_o create_v they_o out_o of_o the_o divide_v matrix_fw-la male_a and_o female_a but_o because_o the_o creature_n be_v material_a therefore_o every_o kind_n species_n or_o generation_n must_v thus_o propagate_v itself_o from_o every_o essence_n but_o with_o the_o angel_n not_o so_o but_o their_o propagation_n be_v sudden_a and_o swift_a as_o god_n thought_n be_v so_o be_v they_o 5._o but_o this_o be_v the_o ground_n every_o quality_n or_o quall_a or_o source_n will_v be_v creature_o and_o the_o fiery_a property_n elevate_v itself_o too_o mighty_o into_o which_o lucifer_n have_v bring_v it_o bring_v or_o set_v his_o delight_n or_o pleasure_n in_o it_o his_o will_n and_o so_o it_o go_v with_o adam_n as_o to_o the_o tempt_v tree_n as_o it_o be_v write_v and_o god_n suffer_v all_o sort_n of_o tree_n to_o spring_v up_o in_o the_o garden_n of_o eden_n and_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o garden_n the_o tree_n of_o life_n and_o of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_a 6._o moses_n say_v god_n suffer_v to_o spring_v up_o out_o of_o the_o earth_n all_o sort_n of_o tree_n pleasant_a to_o look_v upon_o and_o good_a for_o food_n but_o here_o be_v the_o veil_n in_o moses_n and_o yet_o in_o the_o word_n it_o be_v bright_a clear_a and_o manifest_a that_o the_o fruit_n be_v pleasant_a to_o behold_v and_o good_a to_o eat_v wherein_o there_o be_v no_o death_n wrath_n or_o corruption_n or_o corruption_n corruptibility_n but_o it_o be_v paradisicall_a fruit_n of_o which_o adam_n can_v live_v in_o clarity_n or_o brightness_n in_o the_o will_n of_o god_n and_o in_o his_o love_n in_o perfection_n in_o eternity_n only_o the_o death_n stick_v in_o the_o tree_n of_o knowledge_n of_o good_a aod_a evil_n that_o only_o be_v able_a to_o bring_v man_n into_o another_o image_n 7._o now_o we_o must_v needs_o clear_o conceive_v or_o think_v that_o the_o paradisicall_a fruit_n which_o be_v good_a be_v not_o so_o very_o earthly_a for_o as_o moses_n himself_o say_v they_o be_v of_o two_o sort_n the_o one_o good_a to_o eat_v and_o pleasant_a to_o behold_v and_o the_o other_o have_v the_o death_n and_o corruptibility_n in_o it_o in_o the_o paradisicall_a fruit_n there_o be_v no_o death_n nor_o corruptibility_n for_o if_o there_o have_v be_v any_o death_n or_o corruptibility_n therein_o then_o adam_n have_v eat_v death_n in_o all_o the_o fruit_n but_o see_v there_o be_v no_o death_n therein_o therefore_o the_o fruit_n can_v not_o be_v so_o altogether_o earthly_a though_o indeed_o it_o spring_v out_o of_o the_o earth_n yet_o the_o divine_a virtue_n of_o the_o second_o principle_n be_v imprint_v therein_o and_o yet_o they_o be_v true_o in_o the_o three_o principle_n grow_v or_o spring_a out_o of_o the_o earth_n which_o god_n curse_v as_o to_o the_o earthly_a food_n that_o no_o paradisicall_a fruit_n do_v grow_v any_o more_o out_o of_o the_o earth_n 8._o beside_o if_o adam_n have_v eat_v earthly_a fruit_n he_o must_v then_o have_v eat_v it_o into_o his_o body_n and_o have_v have_v gut_n or_o entrails_n and_o how_o can_v such_o a_o stink_v and_o dung_n as_o we_o now_o carry_v in_o the_o body_n have_v be_v in_o paradise_n in_o the_o holiness_n of_o god_n moreover_o he_o shall_v by_o eat_v earthly_a food_n have_v eat_v of_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o star_n and_o element_n which_o will_v present_o have_v infect_v or_o qualify_a in_o he_o as_o be_v do_v in_o the_o fall_n also_o so_o his_o fear_n over_o all_o the_o beast_n will_v have_v cease_v for_o the_o essence_n of_o the_o beast_n will_v present_o have_v be_v like_o the_o humane_a essence_n in_o virtue_n and_o power_n and_o weak_a and_o or_o the_o strong_a will_v have_v domineer_v over_o the_o weak_a one_o will_v have_v domineer_v more_o strong_o over_o the_o other_o 9_o therefore_o it_o be_v clean_o otherwise_o with_o adam_n he_o be_v a_o heavenly_a paradisicall_a man_n he_o shall_v have_v eat_v of_o the_o heavenly_a paradisicall_a fruit_n and_o in_o the_o virtue_n or_o power_n of_o that_o fruit_n he_o shall_v have_v rule_v over_o all_o beast_n or_o live_a creature_n also_o over_o the_o star_n and_o element_n no_o cold_a nor_o heat_n shall_v have_v touch_v he_o or_o else_o god_n will_v not_o have_v create_v he_o so_o naked_a but_o like_o all_o beast_n with_o a_o rough_a or_o hairy_a skin_n or_o hide_n 10._o but_o the_o question_n be_v wherefore_o grow_v the_o earthly_a tree_n of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_a for_o if_o that_o have_v not_o be_v adam_n have_v not_o eat_v of_o it_o or_o wherefore_o must_v adam_n be_v tempt_v harken_v ask_v your_o mind_n about_o it_o wherefore_o it_o so_o sudden_o generate_v and_o conceive_v in_o itself_o a_o thought_n of_o anger_n and_o then_o of_o love_n do_v thou_o say_v it_n come_v from_o the_o hear_n and_o see_v of_o a_o thing_n yes_o that_o be_v true_a this_o god_n also_o know_v very_o well_o and_o therefore_o he_o must_v be_v tempt_v for_o the_o centre_n of_o the_o mind_n be_v free_a and_o it_o generate_v the_o will_n from_o hear_v and_o see_v out_o of_o which_o the_o imagination_n and_o lust_n do_v arise_v 11._o see_v adam_n be_v create_v a_o image_n and_o whole_a similitude_n of_o god_n and_o have_v all_o three_o principle_n in_o he_o like_o god_n himself_o therefore_o also_o his_o mind_n and_o imagination_n shall_v mere_o have_v look_v into_o the_o heart_n of_o god_n and_o shall_v have_v set_v his_o lust_n and_o desire_n or_o will_v thereon_o and_o as_o he_o be_v a_o lord_n over_o all_o and_o that_o his_o mind_n be_v a_o
