unaccountable_a union_n have_v also_o unaccountable_a mutual_a influence_n upon_o each_o other_o but_o for_o all_o that_o their_o contrary_a nature_n be_v very_o discernible_a and_o to_o make_v sense_n and_o reason_n faculty_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v to_o make_v the_o spirit_n as_o the_o man_n a_o compound_v of_o contrary_a nature_n for_o that_o sense_n and_o reason_n be_v of_o contrary_a nature_n be_v discernible_a from_o the_o natural_a and_o constant_a struggle_n and_o contention_n between_o they_o second_o from_o the_o natural_a fruit_n they_o bring_v forth_o which_o be_v certain_o

to_o be_v corporeal_a but_o the_o rational_a soul_n of_o man_n to_o be_v true_o a_o spiritual_a immaterial_a substance_n if_o there_o be_v not_o such_o a_o substance_n in_o
