mind_n be_v in_o the_o centre_n and_o matter_n in_o the_o utmost_a circumference_n it_o follow_v that_o the_o near_a thing_n be_v unto_o pure_a mind_n and_o the_o more_o they_o do_v participate_v of_o that_o the_o more_o they_o have_v of_o rest_n and_o the_o less_o of_o motion_n but_o the_o far_o off_o they_o be_v from_o pure_a mind_n and_o the_o near_a to_o matter_n the_o more_o in_o motion_n they_o be_v and_o indeed_o all_o energy_n in_o matter_n be_v local_a motion_n thus_o all_o the_o effect_n of_o mechanism_n as_o they_o be_v pure_o material_a so_o they_o be_v perform_v only_o by_o local_a motion_n but_o the_o business_n of_o cogitation_n even_o in_o the_o low_a step_n of_o it_o which_o be_v sensation_n as_o it_o be_v of_o near_a relation_n unto_o mind_n than_o to_o matter_n so_o it_o be_v perform_v rather_o by_o way_n of_o mutation_n than_o of_o local_a motion_n the_o eye_n be_v not_o sensible_a of_o any_o motion_n impart_v to_o it_o nor_o be_v the_o ear_n or_o the_o nose_n or_o any_o other_o of_o our_o sensory_n and_o yet_o each_o be_v sensible_a of_o a_o mutation_n make_v therein_o or_o rather_o in_o the_o faculty_n which_o come_v from_o motion_n but_o though_o the_o more_o refine_a any_o being_n be_v and_o the_o near_a that_o they_o be_v to_o the_o central_n mind_n the_o more_o at_o rest_n they_o be_v and_o the_o less_o in_o motion_n in_o their_o several_a action_n and_o consequent_o abstract_a spirit_n that_o do_v not_o live_v in_o gross_a elementary_a body_n be_v more_o at_o rest_n and_o have_v less_o of_o motion_n in_o the_o exercise_n of_o their_o several_a power_n than_o man_n have_v who_o be_v embody_a in_o elementary_a vehicles_n yet_o no_o spirit_n whatsoever_o but_o only_a god_n himself_o who_o only_o be_v pure_a mind_n be_v so_o whole_o so_o absolute_o at_o rest_n as_o that_o it_o see_v all_o thing_n at_o once_o by_o one_o entire_a view_n and_o intuition_n all_o principle_n and_o all_o conclusion_n in_o they_o all_o end_n and_o all_o mean_n and_o motive_n to_o they_o without_o the_o least_o degree_n of_o succession_n or_o any_o addition_n only_o the_o central_n be_v see_v so_o and_o he_o do_v for_o see_v all_o the_o circumference_n be_v in_o the_o centre_n so_o that_o all_o the_o line_n however_o divide_v they_o be_v in_o the_o former_a do_v meet_v together_o in_o the_o latter_a it_o be_v plain_a that_o a_o eye_n place_v in_o the_o centre_n must_v needs_o see_v all_o in_o the_o circle_n as_o clear_o as_o any_o thing_n in_o it_o and_o this_o too_o with_o one_o individual_a single_a intuition_n without_o succession_n or_o addition_n see_v there_o be_v nothing_o of_o motion_n but_o all_o be_v rest_n in_o the_o centre_n and_o this_o proper_o be_v to_o see_v in_o eternity_n thus_o god_n see_v but_o all_o other_o being_n beside_o god_n as_o they_o be_v not_o god_n or_o pure_a mind_n so_o they_o be_v not_o in_o the_o centre_n and_o not_o be_v the_o centre_n but_o at_o distance_n from_o it_o some_o at_o great_a some_o at_o lesser_a but_o all_o at_o some_o they_o all_o have_v something_o of_o motion_n and_o consequent_o can_v act_n or_o see_v in_o the_o same_o manner_n as_o central_n pure_a mind_n by_o way_n of_o absolute_a rest_n without_o succession_n or_o addition_n and_o without_o distinction_n of_o past_a present_a and_o to_o come_v for_o though_o all_o the_o line_n do_v meet_v in_o the_o centre_n yet_o there_o be_v no_o place_n without_o it_o in_o which_o they_o do_v so_o creature_n can_v see_v as_o god_n see_v no_o more_o than_o they_o can_v be_v in_o the_o centre_n as_o god_n be_v it_o be_v too_o short_a and_o inadequate_v a_o way_n of_o argue_v to_o infer_v that_o any_o creature_n can_v see_v all_o thing_n at_o once_o but_o from_o the_o notion_n confuse_v enough_o that_o we_o mortal_n have_v of_o time_n and_o eternity_n as_o that_o time_n be_v successive_a eternity_n a_o permanent_a duration_n together_o with_o a_o conceit_n that_o all_o spirit_n they_o be_v thing_n abstract_a and_o separate_a from_o body_n both_o be_v and_o act_n in_o eternity_n as_o all_o embody_v being_n be_v and_o do_v act_n in_o time_n certain_o every_o be_v but_o god_n be_v in_o time_n though_o not_o in_o the_o same_o kind_a of_o time_n for_o as_o god_n only_o be_v in_o the_o centre_n so_o he_o only_o be_v absolute_o in_o eternity_n and_o if_o time_n be_v take_v for_o all_o duration_n that_o be_v not_o eternity_n god_n only_o be_v without_o time_n and_o so_o without_o succession_n of_o action_n but_o to_o return_v sect_n iii_o of_o mind_n as_o it_o actuate_v a_o

of_o a_o man_n that_o go_v upward_o this_o discourse_n i_o fear_v will_v seem_v a_o little_a mysterious_a and_o therefore_o to_o inlighten_v it_o and_o withal_o to_o open_v though_o but_o in_o

believe_v more_o congenial_a to_o they_o and_o more_o sympathetical_a and_o for_o that_o reason_n they_o say_v it_o be_v that_o ghost_n do_v often_o appear_v in_o church-yard_n and_o that_o they_o

for_o cardan_n tell_v we_o that_o during_o that_o custom_n there_o be_v no_o such_o appear_v of_o ghost_n as_o be_v now_o but_o this_o opinion_n have_v very_o little_a ground_n for_o beside_o that_o

if_o at_o any_o time_n they_o appear_v they_o do_v it_o the_o same_o way_n that_o angel_n be_v use_v to_o do_v since_o there_o be_v the_o same_o reason_n they_o shall_v i_o say_v beside_o this_o it_o

this_o last_o be_v a_o very_a cross_n phaenomenon_n a_o phaenomenon_n that_o render_v all_o apparition_n of_o ghost_n uncertain_a and_o questionable_a since_o it_o seem_v to_o infer_v that_o it_o be_v not_o the_o depart_v soul_n itself_o that_o appear_v whenever_o there_o be_v such_o a_o apparition_n but_o some_o other_o spirit_n that_o personate_v it_o for_o my_o own_o part_n i_o see_v many_o difficulty_n in_o the_o way_n of_o the_o real_a apparition_n of_o spirit_n for_o beside_o that_o of_o the_o assume_v of_o body_n many_o time_n they_o do_v eat_v and_o drink_v and_o perform_v several_a

the_o invisible_a as_o the_o visible_a that_o do_v exist_v in_o the_o universe_n be_v in_o respect_n of_o this_o but_o as_o so_o many_o part_n so_o many_o organ_n some_o more_o simple_a other_o more_z

more_o plain_o since_o faculty_n and_o principle_n be_v notion_n rather_o than_o thing_n and_o some_o will_v be_v apt_a enough_o without_o consider_v their_o ground_n to_o regard_v they_o only_o as_o

the_o last_o i_o shall_v propose_v be_v the_o herculean_a one_o that_o be_v insist_v upon_o by_o many_o great_a and_o very_o judicious_a man_n which_o be_v that_o if_o there_o be_v but_o one_o

have_v little_a effect_n if_o we_o consider_v that_o it_o do_v equal_o destroy_v the_o diversity_n of_o perception_n in_o the_o several_a organ_n and_o part_n of_o one_o animal_n which_o yet_o our_o own_o experience_n atte_v unto_o as_o that_o of_o the_o perception_n of_o several_a animal_n in_o the_o universe_n since_o as_o there_o be_v but_o one_o original_a perceptive_a throughout_o the_o

that_o though_o the_o animal_n itself_o may_v be_v say_v to_o have_v the_o perception_n of_o all_o those_o of_o its_o several_a part_n yet_o these_o can_v be_v true_o say_v to_o have_v one_o another_o
