because_o he_o neither_o can_v nor_o will_v do_v otherwise_o he_o can_v because_o he_o can_v behold_v nothing_o but_o himself_o in_o his_o infinite_a eternity_n whence_o then_o shall_v he_o borrow_v

himself_o to_o think_v of_o other_o rule_n for_o the_o form_n of_o thing_n i_o ask_v then_o to_o what_o end_n he_o do_v so_o if_o god_n do_v nothing_o in_o vain_a now_o in_o his_o ordinary_a

1._o 20._o be_v it_o that_o he_o may_v manifest_v the_o depth_n of_o his_o wisdom_n by_o that_o look_v off_o from_o himself_o neither_o for_o this_o will_v prove_v a_o diminution_n of_o the_o

the_o end_n of_o his_o work_n but_o himself_o therefore_o we_o conclude_v that_o god_n take_v from_o himself_o the_o rule_n of_o his_o work_n as_o well_o at_o the_o end_n of_o they_o and_o power_n

that_o the_o gentile_n entitle_v nature_n not_o only_o the_o daughter_n of_o god_n but_o say_v that_o its_o self_n be_v god_n nature_n be_v nothing_o else_o say_v seneca_n but_o god_n and_o divine_a

11._o therefore_o the_o conception_n of_o all_o thing_n be_v the_o same_o nor_o be_v there_o any_o difference_n but_o in_o the_o manner_n of_o their_o existence_n because_o in_o god_n they_o be_v as_o in_o their_o archetypo_fw-la original_a in_o nature_n as_o in_o the_o ectypo_n copy_n in_o art_n as_o in_o the_o antitypo_n counterfeit_n even_o as_o in_o a_o seal_n the_o form_n be_v one_o and_o

and_o likewise_o the_o reasonable_a creature_n in_o thing_n which_o they_o themselves_o effect_v 12._o therefore_o the_o ground_n as_o of_o the_o frame_n so_o of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o all_o thing_n be_v harmony_n that_o which_o the_o musician_n call_v harmony_n be_v a_o sweet_a consonancy_n of_o diverstone_n the_o like_a exact_a agreement_n be_v to_o be_v find_v in_o the_o eternal_a perfection_n of_o god_n with_o those_o which_o be_v create_v in_o nature_n and_o those_o which_o be_v express_v in_o art_n for_o each_o of_o they_o be_v harmonious_a in_o itself_o as_o also_o in_o mutual_a

whole_a world_n be_v compose_v of_o contrary_n because_o without_o they_o the_o truth_n and_o order_n &_o essence_n of_o the_o world_n will_v fall_v as_o also_o the_o scripture_n contain_v many_o thing_n in_o it_o which_o seem_v to_o oppose_v one_o another_o all_o which_o notwithstanding_o have_v a_o perfect_a agreement_n in_o themselves_o and_o so_o be_v to_o be_v dispose_v in_o our_o understanding_n towards_o a_o perfect_a harmony_n that_o so_o there_o may_v be_v a_o universal_a consent_n as_o in_o divine_a so_o in_o humane_a work_n and_o word_n all_o seem_a dissonancy_n vanish_v of_o themselves_o the_o want_n of_o the_o understanding_n of_o this_o mystery_n be_v the_o reason_n that_o philosopher_n and_o divine_n do_v pick_v out_o of_o nature_n and_o scripture_n one_o this_o thing_n another_o that_o oppose_v nature_n to_o nature_n scripture_n to_o scripture_n and_o thereupon_o draw_v out_o contrary_a sense_n fall_v into_o contention_n and_o difference_n among_o themselves_o which_o thing_n can_v choose_v but_o vanish_v of_o itself_o if_o once_o the_o light_n of_o this_o universal_a harmony_n do_v but_o appear_v for_o truth_n be_v one_o and_o every_o way_n agree_v with_o itself_o 14._o the_o second_o thing_n require_v in_o harmony_n be_v that_o all_o thing_n have_v a_o perfect_a consonancy_n and_o agreement_n it_o be_v manifest_a both_o in_o natural_a and_o artificial_a thing_n that_o all_o be_v frame_v according_a to_o harmony_n so_o in_o a_o beast_n a_o tree_n a_o musical_a instrument_n a_o ship_n a_o book_n a_o house_n all_o the_o part_n be_v necessary_o proportionate_a as_o to_o the_o whole_a so_o to_o one_o another_o but_o some_o man_n may_v make_v a_o question_n whether_o divine_a thing_n have_v any_o proportion_n with_o thing_n natural_a and_o artificial_a for_o it_o may_v be_v think_v that_o it_o best_o become_v the_o divine_a majesty_n to_o have_v nothing_o common_a with_o the_o creature_n but_o we_o must_v observe_v that_o whatsoever_o be_v to_o be_v find_v in_o the_o counterfeit_n be_v first_o and_o by_o way_n of_o excellency_n in_o the_o pattern_n so_o the_o river_n proceed_v from_o the_o fountain_n the_o

that_o at_o last_o all_o thing_n may_v be_v handle_v in_o one_o order_n and_o method_n for_o such_o be_v our_o christian_a philosophy_n or_o rather_o pansophy_n which_o we_o labour_v to_o promote_v

trust_v to_o external_a testimony_n and_o tradition_n but_o to_o the_o inward_a truth_n of_o thing_n themselves_o for_o authority_n may_v as_o easy_o cast_v false_a colour_n over_o thing_n as_o yield_v they_o any_o light_n or_o illustration_n at_o least_o they_o do_v distract_v the_o learner_n and_o estrange_v his_o mind_n from_o the_o thing_n unto_o themselves_o but_o thing_n themselves_o can_v make_v another_o manner_n of_o impression_n in_o the_o sense_n then_o as_o indeed_o they_o be_v and_o wheresoever_o sense_n be_v deficient_a there_o reason_n furnish_v with_o its_o certain_a

be_v lay_v as_o the_o basis_n and_o groundwork_n of_o pansophy_n that_o the_o speech_n and_o write_n which_o philosopher_n or_o divine_n have_v vent_v forth_o may_v not_o present_o be_v hold_v for_o

be_v for_o wise_a and_o able_a man_n have_v many_o time_n utter_v such_o thing_n as_o sound_v of_o levity_n and_o vanity_n which_o notwithstanding_o men-admirer_n admit_v promiscuous_o and_o adore_v it_o be_v easy_a enough_o to_o produce_v many_o example_n hereof_o but_o i_o forbear_v hope_v that_o when_o once_o a_o clear_a light_n of_o truth_n be_v kindle_v abundance_n of_o such_o thing_n will_v lie_v open_a of_o themselves_o 3._o the_o three_o thing_n whereby_o truth_n be_v prejudice_v be_v as_o i_o say_v either_o the_o carelessness_n or_o luxuriance_n of_o the_o stile_n wherein_o thing_n be_v express_v we_o call_v that_o a_o luxuriate_a stile_n when_o in_o the_o explication_n of_o thing_n improper_a tropical_a hyperbolical_a and_o allusive_a word_n or_o sentence_n and_o expression_n be_v use_v especial_o when_o poet_n or_o orator_n and_o sometime_o philosopher_n and_o divine_n act_v their_o part_n fall_v upon_o any_o subject_n which_o they_o will_v amplify_v or_o extenuate_v according_a to_o their_o manner_n use_v with_o their_o figure_n and_o colour_n so_o to_o alter_v thing_n that_o for_o the_o most_o part_n they_o appear_v not_o in_o their_o native_a but_o in_o a_o borrow_a and_o adventitious_a form_n which_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o paint_n and_o false_a glass_n whereas_o truth_n ought_v to_o be_v behold_v with_o a_o pure_a and_o unalter_a light_n carelessness_n of_o stile_n be_v when_o obscure_a word_n be_v use_v or_o term_n borrow_v from_o a_o language_n which_o be_v not_o understand_v such_o as_o greek_a word_n be_v to_o the_o most_o part_n of_o man_n or_o last_o if_o such_o thing_n as_o be_v not_o stable_a truth_n be_v set_v to_o sale_n as_o the_o rule_n of_o truth_n of_o which_o sort_n we_o must_v needs_o confess_v though_o it_o be_v shameful_a to_o speak_v the_o book_n of_o philosopher_n and_o divine_n be_v too_o full_a i_o may_v therefore_o bold_o affirm_v that_o the_o original_n and_o continual_a cause_n of_o error_n in_o learning_n be_v that_o unhappy_a triplicity_n whereof_o i_o have_v speak_v i_o mean_v that_o divers_a sunder_a that_o divers_a transplace_n and_o change_v and_o last_o that_o divers_a mould_v and_o

and_o order_n while_o they_o be_v under_o a_o strange_a form_n for_o it_o be_v easy_a to_o err_v in_o any_o particular_a object_n while_o the_o general_a symmetry_n of_o all_o thing_n be_v unknown_a and_o while_o their_o series_n or_o order_n be_v not_o due_o observe_v it_o be_v easy_a to_o find_v a_o labyrinth_n than_o a_o guide_a path_n and_o truth_n be_v very_o ready_a to_o glide_v away_o while_o the_o eye_n be_v bewitch_v with_o the_o false_a colour_n of_o their_o object_n hence_o be_v the_o offspring_n of_o those_o infinite_a error_n and_o hence_o come_v that_o fastidious_a

in_o the_o learned_a i_o will_v not_o insist_v upon_o that_o too_o fruitful_a mother_n of_o error_n partiality_n and_o side_v with_o sect_n for_o galen_n have_v bestow_v a_o true_a and_o deserve_a
