convince_v we_o that_o divers_a brute_n attain_v to_o as_o great_a perfection_n in_o the_o use_n of_o such_o sense_n as_o the_o generation_n of_o man_n do_v and_o some_o brute_n exceed_v the_o humane_a power_n in_o the_o practice_n and_o use_v of_o some_o of_o these_o sense_n and_o if_o we_o then_o consider_v the_o humane_a affection_n of_o lust_n wrath_n and_o fear_v we_o may_v find_v that_o the_o brutal_a nature_n be_v as_o full_a of_o these_o affection_n as_o the_o humane_a and_o that_o the_o beast_n have_v they_o in_o as_o great_a vigour_n violence_n and_o perfection_n as_o man_n have_v they_o and_o last_o if_o we_o rise_v to_o consider_v the_o power_n of_o intellect_n we_o may_v find_v that_o brute_n enjoy_v the_o true_a and_o real_a use_n of_o fantasy_n choice_n and_o memory_n so_o far_o as_o be_v needful_a for_o the_o well_o be_v of_o their_o nature_n though_o in_o a_o weak_a measure_n and_o very_o low_a degree_n if_o we_o compare_v such_o faculty_n of_o they_o with_o such_o as_o may_v be_v find_v in_o that_o kind_n among_o the_o high_a rank_n of_o man_n or_o such_o of_o they_o as_o have_v attain_v to_o great_a degree_n of_o improvement_n in_o their_o faculty_n of_o that_o kind_n it_o may_v be_v that_o if_o we_o shall_v compare_v the_o most_o stupid_a among_o man_n with_o the_o most_o sensitive_a among_o brute_n as_o with_o the_o elephant_n ape_n horse_n dog_n and_o fox_n it_o may_v be_v find_v that_o some_o of_o these_o creature_n be_v more_o docible_a and_o may_v be_v make_v more_o know_v than_o some_o of_o the_o most_o stupid_a among_o man_n so_o that_o by_o their_o teacher_n eye_n or_o continuance_n or_o their_o voice_n they_o have_v be_v make_v to_o act_n and_o perform_v divers_a thing_n which_o cause_v admiration_n in_o the_o beholder_n and_o such_o as_o it_o will_v be_v hard_a to_o teach_v the_o stupid_a person_n among_o man_n to_o perform_v in_o such_o manner_n as_o beast_n have_v be_v know_v to_o do_v they_o there_o appear_v between_o the_o brutal_a and_o humane_a nature_n and_o composition_n very_o great_a difference_n and_o that_o the_o man_n have_v many_o advantage_n above_o the_o beast_n in_o those_o part_n and_o member_n which_o appear_v outward_o to_o the_o eye_n first_o in_o the_o member_n of_o their_o hand_n and_o tongue_n and_o the_o genuine_a and_o natural_a use_n of_o they_o both_o and_o next_o in_o the_o natural_a and_o upright_a posture_n of_o the_o humane_a body_n and_o the_o place_n of_o the_o head_n thereupon_o all_o which_o give_v great_a advantage_n to_o the_o humane_a above_o the_o brutal_a body_n and_o give_v they_o such_o capacity_n of_o act_v as_o be_v deny_v to_o all_o brute_n whatsoever_o and_o it_o seem_v we_o may_v reasonable_o suppose_v that_o there_o may_v be_v the_o like_a great_a advantage_n in_o the_o inward_a organ_n of_o humane_a above_o those_o of_o the_o brutal_a head_n and_o whereby_o the_o humane_a be_v make_v more_o capable_a of_o perform_v the_o great_a duty_n of_o their_o intellect_n than_o the_o brutal_a creature_n have_v capacity_n to_o do_v and_o yet_o we_o find_v these_o difference_n do_v not_o hinder_v the_o person_n of_o man_n from_o be_v rank_v among_o the_o animal_n kind_a the_o prime_a ingredient_n into_o who_o composition_n be_v the_o same_o flesh_n blood_n bones_o breath_n nerve_n artery_n vein_n joint_n sinew_n and_o member_n which_o go_v to_o the_o composition_n of_o they_o both_o and_o experience_n may_v convince_v we_o that_o the_o life_n of_o they_o all_o be_v in_o their_o blood_n or_o that_o blood_n be_v the_o life_n of_o they_o and_o by_o the_o particle_n of_o such_o blood_n inflame_v call_v the_o spirit_n of_o their_o blood_n they_o be_v all_o inlivened_a and_o act_v alike_o although_o by_o the_o structure_n of_o their_o body_n and_o the_o perfection_n of_o their_o organ_n to_o some_o purpose_n the_o humane_a nature_n have_v very_o great_a advantage_n above_o the_o brutal_a and_o these_o be_v the_o main_a difference_n which_o i_o have_v yet_o be_v able_a to_o find_v between_o the_o two_o nature_n beforementioned_a and_o i_o be_o hence_o so_o far_o convince_v as_o to_o conceive_v that_o there_o be_v no_o such_o great_a and_o apparent_a difference_n between_o that_o sort_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o life_n which_o act_v the_o brute_n and_o that_o sort_n of_o spirit_n which_o act_v the_o man_n as_o heretofore_o have_v general_o be_v believe_v but_o the_o spirit_n which_o act_n life_n in_o they_o both_o be_v of_o a_o more_o similar_v nature_n than_o man_n have_v former_o imagine_v they_o to_o be_v and_o from_o this_o argument_n i_o be_o ready_a to_o conclude_v that_o the_o humane_a spirit_n of_o life_n have_v a_o great_a agreement_n with_o that_o of_o the_o brutal_a and_o therefore_o i_o think_v it_o more_o probable_a to_o be_v a_o material_a unintelligent_a spirit_n than_o that_o it_o shall_v be_v a_o intelligent_a create_v extraneous_a spirit_n make_v by_o god_n for_o each_o man_n at_o the_o time_n of_o his_o procreation_n and_o inject_v into_o the_o embryo_n at_o some_o incertain_a or_o unknown_a time_n which_o yet_o remain_v unperceived_a or_o undeclare_v to_o we_o and_o which_o if_o it_o shall_v be_v make_v better_o know_v may_v deserve_v to_o be_v further_o examine_v among_o we_o upon_o these_o three_o last_o argument_n draw_v from_o the_o animal_n nature_n and_o humane_a experience_n my_o first_o doubt_n concern_v the_o separate_a subsistence_n of_o soul_n be_v found_v after_o i_o have_v hold_v out_o in_o the_o old_a opinion_n until_o my_o age_n of_o sixty_o three-year_n and_o my_o doubt_n cause_v i_o to_o search_v the_o scripture_n concern_v that_o point_n and_o there_o i_o find_v no_o concurrence_n of_o scripture_n text_n which_o be_v bring_v as_o
