as_o well_o as_o consciousness_n in_o as_o much_o as_o the_o one_o be_v a_o pure_a spirit_n the_o other_o a_o substance_n compound_v of_o spirit_n and_o matter_n or_o a_o animal_n and_o spiritual_a part._n these_o be_v position_n that_o answer_n to_o the_o most_o uncontroverted_a idea_n or_o notion_n of_o a_o humane_a person_n but_o now_o if_o a_o humane_a person_n in_o the_o true_a notion_n of_o it_o imply_v a_o existence_n of_o the_o animal_n as_o well_o as_o the_o immaterial_a or_o spiritual_a part_n the_o identity_n of_o a_o humane_a person_n or_o which_o be_v the_o same_o thing_n personal_a identity_n as_o apply_v to_o a_o particular_a man_n must_v consist_v in_o the_o identity_n of_o the_o animal_n as_o well_o as_o immaterial_a part_n whereinsoever_o that_o happen_v to_o

chapter_n of_o identity_n do_v not_o speak_v of_o personal_a identity_n as_o apply_v to_o a_o humane_a person_n and_o certain_o consciousness_n which_o may_v exist_v with_o the_o soul_n in_o a_o state_n of_o separation_n can_v never_o be_v the_o adequate_a principle_n of_o personal_a identity_n unless_o we_o can_v imagine_v that_o the_o body_n contribute_v nothing_o to_o the_o make_v up_o of_o a_o humane_a person_n or_o indeed_o that_o it_o be_v not_o a_o essential_a principle_n as_o well_o as_o the_o soul_n i_o be_o sure_a such_o notion_n such_o assertion_n as_o these_o will_v have_v do_v signal_n service_n to_o the_o sect_n call_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d that_o resolve_v our_o saviour_n humane_a nature_n into_o mere_a phantasm_n for_o if_o consciousness_n be_v alone_o

unpardonable_a injustice_n in_o the_o primitive_a church_n to_o pronounce_v this_o set_a of_o man_n heretic_n i_o remember_v mr._n lock_v very_o learned_o assure_v we_o that_o person_n be_v a_o

the_o judicial_a power_n in_o inflict_v personal_a punishment_n but_o to_o conclude_v this_o argument_n in_o a_o few_o word_n if_o consciousness_n be_v the_o sole_a principle_n of_o personal_a

of_o heresy_n but_o certain_o if_o origen_n notion_n of_o a_o aethereal_a body_n or_o a_o seminal_a principle_n be_v just_o condemn_v as_o heretical_a i_o be_o sure_a it_o must_v be_v a_o signal_n
