for_o the_o humane_a nature_n can_v pass_v into_o a_o essential_a union_n which_o the_o divine_a as_o that_o which_o be_v finite_a can_v be_v infinite_o unite_v to_o that_o which_o infinite_a for_o

by_o which_o the_o humane_a nature_n be_v unite_v unto_o the_o divine_a nature_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o attraction_n of_o the_o humane_a nature_n to_o the_o divine_a in_o the_o high_a

do_v i_o see_v thy_o humane_a nature_n subsist_v in_o the_o divine_a nature_n therefore_o i_o see_v all_o thing_n in_o thy_o humane_a nature_n which_o i_o see_v in_o thy_o divine_a but_o i_o see_v
