the_o state_n of_o blessedness_n there_o be_v some_o action_n of_o the_o soul_n which_o do_v not_o pass_v through_o the_o body_n such_o as_o contemplation_n of_o god_n and_o converse_v with_o spirit_n

of_o the_o body_n ministry_n be_v but_o during_o the_o state_n of_o this_o life_n and_o as_o long_o as_o it_o converse_v with_o fire_n and_o water_n and_o life_n with_o corn_n and_o flesh_n and_o be_v

be_v serve_v by_o phantasm_n and_o material_a representation_n 5._o and_o therefore_o when_o the_o body_n shall_v be_v reunite_v it_o shall_v be_v so_o order_v that_o then_o the_o body_n shall_v confess_v it_o give_v not_o any_o thing_n but_o receive_v all_o its_o be_v and_o operation_n its_o manner_n and_o abode_n from_o the_o soul_n and_o that_o then_o it_o come_v not_o to_o serve_v a_o necessity_n but_o to_o partake_v a_o glory_n for_o as_o the_o operation_n of_o the_o soul_n in_o this_o life_n begin_v in_o the_o body_n and_o by_o it_o the_o object_n be_v transmit_v to_o the_o soul_n so_o than_o they_o shall_v begin_v in_o the_o soul_n and_o pass_v to_o the_o body_n and_o as_o the_o operation_n of_o the_o soul_n by_o reason_n of_o its_o dependence_n on_o the_o body_n be_v animal_n natural_a and_o material_a so_o in_o the_o resurrection_n the_o body_n shall_v be_v spiritual_a by_o reason_n of_o the_o pre-eminence_n influence_n and_o prime_a operation_n of_o the_o soul_n now_o between_o these_o two_o state_n stand_v the_o state_n of_o separation_n in_o which_o the_o operation_n of_o the_o soul_n be_v of_o a_o middle_a nature_n that_o be_v not_o so_o spiritual_a as_o in_o the_o resurrection_n and_o not_o so_o animal_n and_o natural_a as_o in_o the_o state_n of_o conjunction_n to_o all_o which_o i_o add_v this_o consideration_n that_o our_o soul_n have_v the_o same_o condition_n that_o christ_n soul_n have_v in_o the_o state_n of_o separation_n because_o he_o take_v on_o he_o all_o our_o nature_n and_o all_o our_o condition_n and_o it_o be_v certain_a christ_n soul_n in_o the_o three_o day_n of_o his_o separation_n do_v exercise_v act_n of_o life_n of_o joy_n and_o triumph_n and_o do_v not_o sleep_v but_o visit_v the_o soul_n of_o the_o father_n trample_v upon_o the_o pride_n of_o devil_n and_o satisfy_v those_o long_a soul_n which_o be_v prisoner_n of_o hope_n and_o from_o all_o this_o we_o may_v conclude_v that_o the_o soul_n of_o all_o the_o servant_n of_o christ_n be_v alive_a and_o therefore_o do_v the_o action_n of_o life_n and_o proper_a to_o their_o state_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v high_o probable_a that_o the_o soul_n work_v clear_a and_o understand_v bright_a and_o discourse_n wise_a and_o rejoice_v loud_a and_o love_v noble_o and_o desire_v pure_a and_o hope_n strong_a than_o it_o can_v do_v here_o but_o if_o these_o argument_n shall_v fail_v yet_o the_o felicity_n of_o god_n saint_n can_v fail_v for_o suppose_v the_o body_n to_o be_v a_o necessary_a instrument_n but_o out_o of_o tune_n and_o discompose_v by_o sin_n and_o anger_n by_o accident_n and_o chance_n by_o defect_n and_o imperfection_n yet_o that_o it_o be_v better_a than_o none_o at_o all_o and_o that_o if_o the_o soul_n work_v imperfect_o with_o a_o imperfect_a body_n that_o then_o she_o work_v not_o at_o all_o when_o she_o have_v none_o and_o suppose_v also_o that_o the_o soul_n shall_v be_v as_o much_o without_o sense_n or_o perception_n in_o death_n as_o it_o be_v in_o a_o deep_a sleep_n which_o be_v the_o image_n and_o shadow_n of_o death_n yet_o than_o god_n devise_v other_o mean_n that_o his_o banish_a be_v not_o expel_v from_o he_o for_o 2_o god_n will_v restore_v the_o soul_n to_o the_o body_n and_o raise_v the_o body_n to_o such_o a_o perfection_n that_o it_o shall_v be_v a_o organ_n fit_a to_o praise_v he_o upon_o it_o shall_v be_v make_v spiritual_a to_o minister_v to_o the_o soul_n when_o the_o soul_n be_v turn_v into_o a_o spirit_n then_o the_o soul_n shall_v be_v bring_v forth_o by_o angel_n
