the_o say_v place_v no_o more_o and_o consequent_o will_v change_v place_n without_o budge_v and_o stir_v from_o the_o same_o place_n and_o without_o move_v local_o all_o which_o be_v absurd_a second_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o a_o body_n shall_v move_v local_o without_o ever_o change_a place_n for_o if_o god_n shall_v move_v local_o the_o whole_a world_n with_o a_o direct_a motion_n and_o that_o all_o the_o part_n of_o the_o world_n shall_v remain_v in_o their_o proper_a situation_n it_o will_v follow_v that_o the_o earth_n shall_v move_v local_o with_o the_o whole_a world_n and_o yet_o retain_v the_o same_o order_n and_o relation_n it_o have_v to_o the_o fix_a point_n of_o the_o world_n and_o therefore_o if_o place_n shall_v reside_v and_o consist_v in_o such_o a_o

superficies_n and_o relation_n to_o the_o fix_a point_n of_o the_o world_n according_a to_o the_o opinion_n of_o atheist_n be_v a_o accident_n but_o i_o have_v full_o prove_v above_o that_o place_n or_o space_n be_v not_o a_o accident_n from_o all_o which_o it_o do_v appear_v that_o place_n or_o space_n be_v not_o a_o accident_n it_o must_v necessary_o be_v a_o substance_n now_o all_o substance_n according_a to_o the_o common_a opinion_n of_o philosopher_n be_v either_o corporal_n or_o uncorporal_a that_o be_v either_o a_o body_n or_o a_o spirit_n see_v then_o that_o place_n or_o space_n be_v not_o a_o body_n it_o must_v necessary_o be_v a_o spirit_n that_o place_n or_o space_n be_v not_o a_o body_n appear_v because_o a_o body_n be_v impenetrable_a with_o another_o body_n but_o the_o place_n or_o space_n be_v penetrable_a with_o all_o sort_n of_o body_n moreover_o every_o body_n may_v move_v for_o moveableness_n be_v the_o property_n of_o the_o body_n but_o the_o place_n or_o space_n be_v immovable_a as_o i_o have_v prove_v already_o in_o one_o word_n every_o body_n be_v in_o a_o place_n and_o occupy_v a_o space_n but_o place_n be_v not_o in_o a_o place_n else_o there_o will_v be_v progressus_fw-la in_o infinitum_fw-la and_o a_o space_n do_v not_o occupy_v another_o place_n by_o the_o same_o reason_n therefore_o place_n or_o space_n be_v not_o a_o body_n since_o that_o place_n or_o space_n be_v not_o a_o accident_n but_o a_o substance_n and_o that_o it_o be_v not_o a_o body_n as_o i_o have_v prove_v just_a now_o it_o must_v necessary_o be_v a_o spirit_n now_o every_o spirit_n be_v either_o humane_a or_o angelical_a or_o divine_a that_o be_v to_o say_v it_o be_v either_o a_o reasonable_a soul_n or_o a_o angel_n or_o a_o god_n therefore_o place_n or_o space_n be_v a_o spirit_n must_v be_v one_o of_o the_o three_o but_o it_o be_v easy_a to_o show_v that_o place_n or_o space_n be_v neither_o a_o reasonable_a soul_n nor_o a_o angel_n because_o reasonable_a soul_n and_o angel_n be_v in_o some_o sort_n movable_a for_o they_o be_v sometime_o in_o a_o place_n and_o sometime_o in_o another_o but_o the_o space_n be_v whole_o immovable_a moreover_o soul_n and_o angel_n be_v finite_a and_o be_v only_o in_o the_o world_n but_o space_n be_v infinite_a and_o be_v beyond_o the_o world_n as_o i_o have_v prove_v above_o beside_o there_o be_v never_o a_o drop_n of_o the_o ocean_n never_o so_o small_a parcel_n of_o the_o air_n fire_n or_o earth_n but_o it_o do_v occupy_v a_o place_n and_o there_o be_v never_o a_o part_n of_o the_o world_n let_v it_o be_v never_o so_o small_a but_o it_o do_v occupy_v a_o space_n it_o will_v follow_v that_o there_o will_v be_v never_o a_o bit_n of_o sand_n never_o a_o drop_n of_o the_o ocean_n never_o a_o leaf_n of_o a_o tree_n never_o so_o small_a a_o parcel_n of_o the_o air_n and_o earth_n but_o therein_o will_v be_v a_o reasonable_a soul_n or_o a_o angel_n and_o all_o the_o world_n will_v be_v fill_v with_o angel_n or_o reasonable_a soul_n which_o be_v altogether_o absurd_a upon_o this_o ground_n some_o conclude_v that_o place_n or_o space_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o immensity_n and_o infiniteness_n of_o god_n and_o consequent_o god_n himself_o and_o so_o proceed_v to_o answer_v the_o argument_n of_o atheist_n draw_v from_o the_o infiniteness_n of_o the_o oriental_a and_o occidental_a space_n thus_o one_o must_v argue_v and_o discourse_v of_o the_o immensity_n of_o god_n in_o respect_n to_o body_n as_o of_o his_o eternity_n in_o respect_n to_o time_n and_o age_n therefore_o as_o eternity_n which_o be_v the_o divinity_n itself_o be_v indivisible_a and_o without_o part_n be_v always_o the_o same_o before_o age_n with_o age_n and_o after_o age_n if_o they_o come_v to_o pass_v away_o so_o that_o the_o eternity_n which_o be_v before_o time_n and_o that_o which_o be_v with_o time_n the_o eternity_n which_o be_v in_o the_o time_n of_o adam_n of_o noah_n and_o of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o that_o which_o be_v in_o this_o present_a time_n be_v not_o many_o eternity_n nor_o many_o part_n of_o eternity_n but_o one_o and_o the_o same_o eternity_n of_o god_n which_o be_v as_o the_o receptacle_n of_o all_o age_n and_o time_n so_o that_o the_o age_n of_o adam_n the_o age_n of_o noah_n the_o age_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o all_o other_o age_n and_o time_n whatsoever_o be_v in_o the_o same_o eternity_n and_o do_v not_o differ_v in_o duration_n in_o respect_n to_o eternity_n which_o remain_v always_o immutable_a correspond_v to_o all_o thing_n and_o to_o all_o age_n but_o they_o do_v differ_v in_o themselves_o in_o that_o time_n and_o age_n be_v necessary_o and_o essential_o successive_a can_v be_v together_o so_o immensity_n which_o be_v the_o divinity_n itself_o be_v also_o indivisible_a and_o without_o part_n remain_v always_o the_o same_o before_o the_o body_n with_o the_o body_n and_o after_o the_o body_n if_o they_o shall_v happen_v to_o be_v destroy_v so_o that_o the_o immensity_n which_o be_v beyond_o the_o world_n and_o that_o which_o be_v where_o the_o world_n be_v the_o immensity_n wherein_o the_o sun_n be_v and_o the_o immensity_n wherein_o the_o earth_n be_v be_v not_o many_o immensity_n nor_o many_o part_n of_o the_o immensity_n but_o one_o and_o the_o same_o immensity_n which_o be_v the_o receptacle_n of_o all_o body_n so_o that_o heaven_n and_o earth_n the_o sea_n and_o all_o other_o body_n whatsoever_o be_v in_o the_o same_o immensity_n and_o do_v not_o differ_v in_o internal_a place_n in_o respect_n to_o

they_o can_v be_v together_o and_o can_v be_v compass_v of_o the_o same_o superficies_n and_o though_o philosopher_n for_o the_o most_o part_n do_v attribute_n to_o the_o eternity_n and_o immensity_n of_o god_n virtual_a part_n and_o a_o virtual_a extension_n as_o well_o to_o distinguish_v the_o eternity_n from_o the_o moment_n of_o time_n and_o the_o immensity_n from_o the_o indivisible_a point_n as_o because_o they_o hold_v the_o frailty_n of_o humane_a spirit_n to_o be_v so_o great_a that_o it_o can_v conceive_v so_o long_a a_o duration_n as_o eternity_n be_v nor_o so_o long_a a_o space_n as_o immensity_n be_v without_o part_n and_o extension_n nevertheless_o it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o god_n know_v all_o thing_n as_o they_o be_v and_o he_o that_o know_v perfect_o his_o eternity_n and_o immensity_n conceive_v they_o without_o part_n and_o extension_n and_o yet_o he_o know_v eternity_n distant_a from_o the_o moment_n of_o time_n and_o immensity_n distinct_a from_o the_o invisible_a point_n and_o it_o be_v to_o no_o purpose_n to_o say_v that_o by_o these_o virtual_a part_n philosopher_n mean_v not_o true_a part_n but_o only_o somewhat_o equivalent_a to_o these_o part_n so_o that_o eternity_n have_v somewhat_o equivalent_a to_o the_o actual_a part_n of_o time_n which_o have_v or_o may_v have_v run_v during_o eternity_n and_o immensity_n have_v somewhat_o equivalent_a to_o the_o body_n or_o part_n of_o the_o body_n which_o be_v in_o the_o immensity_n for_o as_o it_o can_v be_v true_o say_v
that_o a_o rock_n stand_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o a_o river_n have_v so_o many_o virtual_a part_n as_o there_o be_v actual_a part_n of_o water_n that_o run_v and_o beat_v it_o while_o the_o rock_n

of_o its_o great_a weakness_n in_o so_o high_a mystery_n can_v conceive_v the_o eternity_n and_o immensity_n of_o god_n without_o attribute_v to_o they_o somewhat_o equivalent_a to_o the_o actual_a

create_v another_o but_o not_o immediate_o after_o they_o assure_v that_o the_o spirit_n of_o man_n can_v conceive_v the_o duration_n betwixt_o the_o two_o world_n without_o conceive_v some_o space_n of_o time_n or_o somewhat_o eqvivalent_a to_o the_o space_n of_o time_n and_o if_o god_n shall_v create_v another_o world_n which_o will_v not_o touch_v this_o they_o think_v that_o the_o spirit_n

favour_v they_o great_o as_o will_v appear_v anon_o and_o so_o answer_v the_o objection_n precise_o they_o say_v that_o the_o oriental_a space_n and_o the_o occidental_a space_n be_v nothing_o else_o than_o oriental_a immensity_n and_o the_o occidental_a immensity_n and_o therefore_o as_o the_o oriental_a immensity_n and_o the_o occicidental_a immensity_n real_o and_o in_o themselves_o be_v not_o

oriental_a and_o occidental_a body_n that_o be_v or_o may_v be_v in_o this_o immensity_n so_o the_o oriental_a space_n and_o the_o occidental_a space_n be_v not_o real_o and_o in_o themselves_o two_o

space_n be_v nothing_o than_o the_o immensity_n of_o god_n though_o it_o be_v infinite_a be_v also_o indivisible_a and_o without_o part_n final_o even_o as_o a_o man_n and_o a_o rational_a animal_n

because_o the_o oriental_a and_o occidental_a immensity_n or_o the_o oriental_a and_o occidental_a space_n be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o thing_n and_o if_o one_o will_v allow_v or_o suppose_v some_o

multitude_n of_o time_n and_o body_n to_o the_o which_o the_o eternity_n and_o immensity_n of_o god_n correspond_v they_o say_v that_o as_o the_o age_n of_o adam_n be_v in_o a_o part_n or_o virtual_a

that_o we_o be_v thus_o to_o argue_v of_o other_o time_n and_o body_n and_o if_o any_o say_v that_o all_o thing_n propound_v hitherto_o be_v incomprehensible_a and_o altogether_o incredible_a they_o answer_v that_o god_n dwell_v in_o a_o inaccessible_a light_n one_o must_v not_o wonder_v if_o incomprehensibility_n be_v one_o of_o his_o property_n and_o attribute_n and_o see_v the_o eternity_n and_o immensity_n of_o god_n be_v nothing_o else_o than_o god_n himself_o one_o must_v not_o think_v it_o strange_a that_o they_o be_v incomprehensible_a and_o can_v be_v perfect_o conceive_v by_o

for_o the_o oriental_a and_o occidental_a inanity_n be_v infinite_a and_o great_a than_o the_o sole_a oriental_a inanity_n it_o will_v follow_v that_o a_o infinite_a shall_v be_v great_a than_o
