togither maketh the thing caused As The Lorde God also made man of the duste of the ground and breathed in his face the breathe of life and the man was a liuing soule Here wee see that God which is of him selfe without Man is the making cause of man and did make him by breathing the breath of life which was the forme into that of the duste which was the matter Nowe where more then one doo the proper worke of the making cause all working togither are the making cause The partes whereof are the chiefe workers called the principall and the helpes called the instrumentes and the ende which moueth the making cause to sette the matter and forme togither is no other cause then this seeing it bringeth no other force for the being of the thing then to moue the making cause to worke As Of his owne will begatte he vs with the worde of trueth that we should be the firste fruites of his creatures Where the ende that we should be the firste fruites of his creatures moued Gods owne will Gods owne will being the principall worker to begette vs with the worde of trueth being the instrumentall And thus much for the efficient or making cause The causes that are within the thing are those causes which are alwayes inseparablie remayning togither for the being of the thing They are twoo The matter The forme The matter is a cause of the which the thing caused is made So the Lorde made woman of the ribbe of man Noah the Arke of pine trees The forme is a cause by the which a thing is that which it is and so differeth frō all other things as in the example of man before mencioned But the naturall forme of thinges though they may be conceyued by reason yet they can not well be vttered by speache The artificiall forme of thinges is much more easie to bee conceyued in reason and vttered in wordes and therefore of such speaches there be many as in all writers so in the Scriptures especiallie So God set downe the artificiall forme of the Arke and of the Arke of couenaunt the Table the Candelsticke the Tabernacle the mercie Seate the Altar of burnte offeringes the Court of the Tabernacle and all the furniture and appurtenances therevnto by which artificial forme they be that they be and differ from all other things Thus much of the cause Now followeth the thing caused The thing caused is that which is by the whole force of all the causes As So GOD loued the worlde as he gaue his onlie begotten Sonne that whosoeuer beleeueth in him should not perishe but haue eternall life Where our happines is the thing caused the loue of God and faith the efficient cause Christ the materiall cause and eternall life the formal cause So also euerie worke or mouing of anie thing is the effecte or thinge caused by the worker or mouer Hitherto of more agreeable reasons Of both which relatiues are a most excellent example they are those which are so of and by one another that they are the mutuall causes and effectes one of another As The Father and the Sonne to giue and receyue to teache and to learne Nowe of the lesse agreeable argumentes Lesse agreeable reasons are such in whose agreement lesse is giuen and receyued to and from one another as appeareth in the example of more agreeable reasons The subiect is of two sortes Which receyueth the adioynt That wherein the adioint is is occupied As in this example Wheresoeuer the carkasse is thither will the eagles resorte Where we see in the firste parte the worde Where noting out a place whiche is the subiecte of the thing that is in it is the subiecte which receyueth the carkas is the subiect wherein the Eagles which are the adiointes occupie them selues by resorting So Husbandrie is the subiect of an Husbandman Ruling the Church is the subiect of the Bishop because in these things they are occupied The subiect which receyueth also is double That which receyueth into it selfe That which receyueth to it selfe So Iob was the subiect in which was soundnes vprightnes and the feare of God and the minde is the subiect in which are all euill qualities So Iob and other menne were and are the subiectes which receyue to themselues ritches houses landes c. An adiointe is that which is adioyned vnto anie thing as in all the former examples the things referred vnto their subiectes were the adiointes so what soeuer is referred vnto anie thing not being cause or effecte of the same it is the adiointe Agayne adiointes are eyther Common or Proper Eyther of them separable or inseparable which for the most part arise of the causes or being of the things and are therefore called essentiall or of the being Common are those which are adioyned vnto diuers subiectes as the power of eating drinking sleeping c. are common adiointes to men and beastes and can not be separated So ritches pouertie sicknes and health are common adiointes to good and euill men and may be separated from them A proper adiointe is that which is alwayes ioyned to one and the same subiect So righteousnes faith ioye in the holy Ghost are the proper adiointes to the children of God so to be seene and felte are the proper adiointes of a bodie and the●e are inseparable And it was proper to Adam and Ehauah to enioye paradise and yet separable Also Paule to be rapte vp into the thirde heauen and yet separable Hitherto of an agreeable argument whereby only those things that differ in themselues may yet be saide to be one So Christe sayeth I and my Father are ont meaninge in nature or cause So Iohn saith There are three which beare witnesse in heauen the Father the Worde and the Spirite and these three are one meaning in their witnesse whiche is their effecte So Paule saith He that planteth and he that watereth are one that is in office and function which is the adiuncte The thirde Chapter Of disagreeable argumentes DIsagreeable reasons are those reasons which disagree beeing referred one vnto another Disagreeable reasons are of two sortes Diuers or somewhat differing Such as can not stande togither commonly called opposites Diuers reasons are those which disagree onely in respect or after a certaine manner the notes whereof are commonly these Not this but that albeit neuerthelesse notwithstanding and such like As I knowe thy workes thy labour thy pacience neuerthelesse I haue somewhat against thee because thou haste lefte thy firste loue Where wee see that although these were disagreeing in respect of this Church yet they may agree for Christ may both knowe their pacience and workes and yet haue nothinge against them And these reasons and all such answering the one to the other whiche haue notes are sometimes set downe fully by their partes answering one vnto another sometimes by their notes onely Reasons which can not stande togither are reasons which differ not onely in respecte but also
