not_o flesh_n and_o bone_n as_o you_o see_v i_o have_v and_o if_o not_o flesh_n and_o bone_n of_o what_o must_v a_o spirit_n consist_v that_o be_v corporeal_a i_o hope_v mr._n hobbes_n will_v not_o say_v that_o it_o be_v make_v like_o his_o decide_n sword_n of_o iron_n and_o steel_n but_o the_o apprehension_n that_o we_o can_v have_v of_o a_o spirit_n be_v that_o it_o be_v something_o that_o be_v no_o object_n of_o our_o sense_n and_o so_o not_o mathematical_o descriptable_a but_o a_o object_n of_o our_o understanding_n which_o apprehend_v that_o a_o good_a spirit_n be_v wise_a and_o know_v and_o that_o a_o evil_a spirit_n be_v subtle_a and_o cunning_a but_o what_o shall_v we_o say_v then_o of_o mr._n hobbes_n his_o spirit_n that_o be_v his_o soul_n which_o be_v neither_o wise_a subtle_a nor_o cunning_a to_o this_o i_o shall_v only_o say_v that_o i_o think_v it_o be_v no_o body_n by_o reason_n it_o have_v actuate_v every_o part_n of_o his_o body_n and_o be_v in_o the_o same_o for_o near_o 80_o year_n together_o which_o it_o can_v not_o have_v be_v have_v it_o be_v body_n for_o this_o will_v be_v to_o make_v several_a body_n in_o one_o place_n at_o the_o same_o time_n which_o mr._n hobbes_n disallow_v of_o so_o then_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n must_v be_v something_o that_o be_v not_o body_n that_o be_v as_o we_o call_v it_o spirit_n or_o spiritual_a substance_n create_v by_o god_n in_o man_n as_o life_n be_v breathe_v into_o adam_n and_o all_o other_o live_v creature_n but_o mr._n hobbes_n after_o his_o philosophical_a discourse_n concern_v the_o corporeousness_n of_o a_o spirit_n cite_v text_n of_o scripture_n to_o show_v what_o the_o meaning_n of_o spirit_n be_v there_o his_o first_o be_v gen._n 1._o 2._o where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n move_v upon_o the_o face_n of_o the_o water_n this_o he_o say_v be_v mean_v a_o wind_n wrought_v by_o god_n because_o motion_n be_v attribute_v to_o it_o and_o consequent_o place_n and_o nothing_o can_v be_v move_v that_o change_v not_o place_n or_o have_v not_o dimension_n and_o whatsoever_o have_v dimension_n be_v body_n admirable_a philosophy_n for_o mark_v the_o argument_n motion_n and_o place_n belong_v to_o body_n therefore_o nothing_o but_o a_o body_n can_v have_v motion_n or_o place_n suppose_v a_o man_n shall_v reply_v upon_o mr._n h●bbes_n and_o say_v ear_n belong_v to_o a_o ass_n therefore_o nothing_o but_o a_o ass_n can_v have_v ear_n what_o a_o trouble_n will_v this_o be_v to_o mr._n hobbes_n to_o be_v make_v a_o ass_n by_o his_o own_o argument_n which_o suppose_v all_o thing_n to_o be_v the_o same_o to_o which_o any_o one_o circumstance_n or_o qualification_n equal_o belong_v but_o full_o to_o answer_v mr._n hobbes_n motion_n in_o this_o place_n of_o scripture_n be_v intend_v as_o i_o think_v of_o the_o special_a and_o extraordinary_a operation_n of_o god_n spirit_n though_o some_o interpreter_n take_v it_o i_o confess_v to_o be_v a_o wind_n impulse_v by_o god_n spirit_n like_o gen._n 8.1_o upon_o the_o water_n and_o not_o to_o denote_v god_n move_v from_o place_n to_o place_n as_o body_n do_v for_o in_o that_o sense_n neither_o motion_n nor_o place_n can_v be_v attribute_v to_o god_n who_o be_v every_o where_o but_o in_o no_o place_n either_o circumscriptive_o or_o definitive_o as_o body_n be_v but_o it_o follow_v not_o therefore_o that_o god_n by_o his_o spirit_n can_v extraordinary_o act_v in_o one_o place_n more_o than_o another_o without_o become_v a_o body_n as_o he_o do_v in_o the_o creation_n upon_o the_o water_n and_o it_o be_v not_o sense_n to_o say_v that_o of_o necessity_n dimension_n m●st_v belong_v to_o that_o which_o have_v motion_n or_o place_n because_o that_o body_n that_o have_v motion_n and_o place_n have_v dimension_n for_o it_o be_v to_o make_v a_o general_a conclusion_n of_o the_o be_v of_o a_o thing_n from_o a_o particular_a qualification_n and_o that_o will_v be_v to_o make_v man_n beast_n and_o beast_n man_n as_o i_o hint_v before_o but_o i_o confess_v that_o the_o word_n spirit_n in_o scripture_n and_o common_a discourse_n have_v various_a signification_n as_o mr._n hobbes_n have_v plentiful_o discourse_v but_o what_o that_o make_v to_o the_o impossibility_n of_o a_o substance_n be_v incorporeal_a i_o know_v not_o neither_o do_v i_o think_v it_o conceptible_a and_o i_o can_v agree_v with_o mr._n hobbes_n in_o his_o several_a quotation_n of_o scripture_n that_o mention_v our_o savour_n who_o be_v endow_v with_o god_n spirit_n and_o it_o be_v abominable_a to_o question_v it_o and_o several_a eminent_a person_n as_o gideon_n etc._n etc._n to_o be_v endow_v with_o god_n spirit_n that_o those_o place_n as_o he_o say_v only_o mean_a that_o our_o saviour_n and_o other_o have_v special_a virtue_n for_o such_o purpose_n but_o that_o god_n have_v not_o inspire_v his_o spirit_n into_o they_o to_o enable_v they_o to_o perform_v such_o and_o such_o thing_n as_o when_o he_o cite_v the_o 6._o of_o judge_n v._n 34._o which_o say_v that_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n come_v upon_o gideon_n that_o be_v say_v mr._n hobbes_n gideon_n have_v courage_n to_o defend_v god_n people_n and_o this_o let_v i_o add_v that_o if_o it_o be_v bare_o courage_n in_o gideon_n it_o be_v the_o strange_a courage_n that_o i_o ever_o read_v of_o except_o that_o of_o jonathan_n to_o attack_v so_o great_a a_o host_n as_o that_o of_o midian_a be_v with_o only_o 300_o man_n and_o the_o arm_n of_o they_o nothing_o but_o trumpet_n lamp_n and_o pitcher_n but_o if_o this_o interpretation_n of_o mr._n hobbes_n be_v true_a oliver_n cromwell_n or_o any_o other_o valiant_a man_n may_v be_v say_v to_o have_v god_n spirit_n as_o well_o as_o gideon_n although_o we_o do_v not_o find_v that_o so_o much_o as_o any_o of_o david_n worthy_n in_o the_o repetition_n of_o their_o great_a act_n be_v say_v to_o have_v it_o when_o we_o can_v suppose_v but_o that_o they_o have_v as_o much_o courage_n as_o gideon_n and_o upon_o that_o account_n may_v as_o easy_o have_v be_v say_v to_o have_v god_n spirit_n if_o by_o god_n spirit_n in_o such_o man_n be_v only_o mean_v courage_n what_o folly_n then_o be_v it_o for_o mr._n hobbes_n to_o affirm_v this_o have_v no_o warrant_n for_o it_o but_o his_o own_o fancy_n to_o which_o he_o have_v give_v so_o great_a a_o latitude_n as_o in_o this_o chapter_n most_o damnable_o and_o profane_o to_o make_v nothing_o of_o the_o bless_a spirit_n of_o god_n but_o a_o ghost_n as_o p._n 209._o which_o in_o other_o place_n he_o make_v the_o companion_n of_o goblin_n both_o which_o he_o take_v to_o be_v as_o indeed_o they_o be_v the_o imagination_n of_o distemper_a brain_n such_o as_o mr._n hobbes_n his_o be_v when_o he_o write_v this_o interpretation_n of_o place_n of_o scripture_n of_o this_o kind_n when_o in_o p._n 58._o he_o say_v that_o the_o scripture_n mean_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o man_n a_o man_n spirit_n incline_v to_o godliness_n and_o here_o he_o say_v they_o mean_v the_o particular_a virtue_n man_n be_v endow_v with_o for_o such_o purpose_n and_o whether_o this_o be_v not_o the_o next_o thing_n to_o a_o contradiction_n i_o shall_v refer_v to_o any_o one_o that_o have_v so_o much_o virtue_n and_o godliness_n as_o to_o speak_v true_a for_o a_o godly_a man_n that_o be_v one_o devout_a towards_o god_n may_v not_o be_v endow_v with_o any_o other_o virtue_n and_o then_o mr._n hobbes_n come_v to_o text_n of_o scripture_n concern_v our_o saviour_n as_o to_o this_o matter_n it_o be_v luke_n the_o 4_o the_o v_o 1._o and_o matth._n 4._o 1._o that_o express_v our_o saviour_n to_o be_v full_a of_o god_n spirit_n this_o say_v mr._n hobbes_n be_v a_o zeal_n to_o do_v god_n work_n but_o say_v he_o to_o say_v god_n be_v fill_v with_o god_n be_v improper_a and_o insignificant_a and_o this_o last_o i_o shall_v be_v behold_v to_o mr._n hobbes_n for_o hereafter_o when_o i_o come_v

that_o the_o godhead_n must_v be_v full_a of_o the_o godhead_n for_o our_o saviour_n have_v a_o humane_a nature_n which_o he_o may_v not_o out_o of_o his_o good_a pleasure_n endow_v with_o all_o the_o
