A67026	The true originall of the soule proving both by divine and naturall reason, that the production of mans soule is neither by creation nor propagation, but a certain meane way between both : wherein the doctrine of originall sinne, and the purity of Christs incarnation, is also more fully cleared then hath been heretofore published / by H.W.

in_o elementary_a generation_n yet_o it_o follow_v not_o in_o spiritual_a composition_n see_v their_o matter_n be_v of_o a_o high_a kind_n second_o though_o nature_n can_v produce_v one_o soul_n put_v
