controversy_n with_o mr._n hicks_n perceive_v the_o many_o absurdity_n which_o follow_v from_o this_o new_a fabric_n e.g._n that_o the_o heavenly_a body_n or_o divine_a intermediate_n substance_n if_o there_o be_v real_o such_o a_o one_o will_v be_v discerpible_a into_o particle_n which_o particle_n shall_v be_v carry_v hither_o and_o thither_o by_o man_n as_o they_o step_v from_o place_n to_o

that_o the_o portion_n of_o that_o body_n in_o the_o son_n of_o mary_n increase_v in_o quantity_n and_o that_o that_o heavenly_a substance_n consist_v of_o a_o body_n and_o spirit_n shall_v be_v

of_o christ_n birth_n deat●_n resurrection_n etc._n etc._n consist_v in_o this_o that_o when_o a_o man_n be_v convert_v than_o they_o say_v the_o immortal_a babe_n be_v bear_v christ_n the_o seed_n
