thereunto_o a._n it_o may_v be_v prove_v thus_o because_o that_o knowledge_n do_v far_o exceed_v man_n reason_n as_o the_o apostle_n express_o say_v a_o animal_n man_n receive_v not_o the_o thing_n

which_o that_o it_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v of_o immortality_n and_o the_o way_n and_o mean_n tend_v thereunto_o be_v evident_a from_o the_o very_a thing_n itself_o q._n but_o can_v you_o make_v this_o plain_a by_o another_o testimony_n of_o the_o scripture_n a._n yes_o by_o that_o rom._n 1._o 19_o 20._o where_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o what_o may_v be_v know_v of_o god_n be_v manifest_a

thing_n of_o god_n be_v know_v be_v to_o be_v understand_v of_o the_o work_v do_v under_o the_o gospel_n q._n but_o that_o place_n be_v common_o interpret_v in_o another_o sense_n a._n i_o be_o not_o ignorant_a thereof_o but_o that_o come_v to_o pass_v because_o they_o read_v the_o passage_n otherwise_o than_o it_o be_v write_v by_o the_o apostle_n for_o whereas_o the_o apostle_n write_v from_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n they_o read_v by_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n again_o they_o join_v the_o same_o word_n not_o with_o the_o clause_n go_v before_o a_o example_n of_o
