I love and the Relative in rehearsing as I who love Ille ego qui quondam Which also is the office of its Verb And that either in order to its own being or Passions as I am or I am called upon or else in order to its personal posture as I sit or sleep All which must have the casual word nominatively placed because the motion terminates in it self And so remain's a monument of the primitive unity I THOU and HE living as one until they came to distinguish MINE THINE and HIS These introduc'd Trade and that the multiplicity of clinshing words and tropical sentences in order to perswasion Insomuch that such is the present excellency of that Art as it might be taken for no Paradox saving the gravity of a * Qui ratio naliterutitur argumentis ad persuadendum Oratoris nomen meruit etiamsi non persuaserit Quint.

Ep. I. 5.7 and the Holy Ghost and these three are one There are three that bear witness in earth the Spirit the Water and the Blood and these three agree in one As I am no quarreller at Scripture so am I not certain whether the Original sounds 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 or 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 However both coming from 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Spiro had the more strict present occasion of the Evangelist permitted the Translators to have expressed the Blood by name of Winde they had thereby saved me the use of faith sithence I should then have understood the assertion Philosophically as knowing the water wind and Spirit to be one viz.

Cantabrig The wind a rarified water and the Spirit a rarified wind And consequently the wind to be a coagulated spirit and the water a coagulated winde So bearing their witness of the infiniteness of the opening and the shutting Mens agitans molem coeco se corpore miscens As the Maronian in the fourth of his Georgicks hath it See the last Embleme probably out of Thales Milesius whose sense Cicero in his books De Natnrâ Deorum so much depends on and we find abundantly confirmed in the twelfth chapter of that admirable Book of Job and elsewhere throughout the Text. My intent hence is not with * In Relig. med Dr. Brown to maintain a multiplicity of worlds But to induce first how Aristotles principles of the world do bear the same witness Form being no other then a vivified matter as proportionated Beings be the au●optic gallantry of that Form formed and wherein the respective decay of heat is the recess of the life towards its abscondity So secondly the excellency of the microcosme consisting in its discursive faculty Plato in Timan. as the manifested expansion of the unity of mans soul to its trine How it must also in its Philosophie bear a like testimony The word of motion being a word of Being actuated as amare is a word essentially declaring the action of Amor and modable according to the temporal inclination of the lover towards whatever Being he therein can fansie perfection Whence the Ancients fained Cupid in as many shapes as they do Venus See the Embleme or as Pausanias latinized hath it Tot amores quot Veneres Yet they comprized all under Greatness and Goodness which as saith the same Author are but one Quia identidem appetitum alliciunt And its observable that the perfection towards which a motion is thus directed or attracted is often invisible even as is the fire in water yet known to be there by reason of its flowing For when the ambient cold sorceth the fire to its center the water as it ceaseth its flowing is no more water but ice until the fire be invited to its pristine expansion by exterior warmth Even so in what ever whether visible or invisible quality of a Being my opinion fanfieth perfection this perfection but so thence vanishing the motion of my love immediately retires to its first essentiality And thus as John loveth or not loveth Joan be the cogitations of man expressible by the said * Intelligete movere generare essentialiter idem sunt See D.

Whereof the first is known by its preposited note of doubt as when with our Author I say Si cupis placere magistro utere diligentiâ 2. The second by its subjoyning office as to say ut placeas 3.

And the fourth by the absence of a Verb otherwise than infinitively posited As if I were to say Cupiens placere magistro utere diligentiâ In all which the understood Noun Personal or Pronoun Tu must be the Being whence the Verb utere moveth towards diligentia as the word
