before_o he_o i_o answer_v that_o this_o beginning_n be_v none_o other_o than_o that_o production_n or_o beget_n which_o i_o before_o declare_v to_o have_v be_v heretofore_o none_o other_o than_o it_o

this_o action_n of_o god_n whereby_o he_o beget_v his_o son_n be_v not_o a_o transeant_fw-la action_n to_o cause_v a_o passion_n in_o the_o subject_n and_o a_o repassion_n in_o the_o agent_n for_o in_o such_o the_o subject_n of_o necessity_n shall_v have_v be_v existent_a before_o the_o action_n but_o this_o action_n be_v immanent_a and_o therefore_o of_o necessity_n of_o the_o same_o nature_n with_o the_o agent_n which_o agent_n because_o it_o be_v eternal_a therefore_o the_o production_n be_v also_o eternal_a and_o consequent_o the_o product_n and_o so_o of_o necessity_n very_o god._n but_o you_o must_v ever_o remember_v what_o difference_n i_o make_v between_o the_o action_n of_o god_n infinite_a in_o power_n &_o therefore_o able_a to_o actuate_v the_o object_n and_o the_o immanent_a action_n of_o our_o mind_n now_o for_o the_o priority_n or_o posterioritie_n you_o may_v object_v i_o grant_v there_o be_v priority_n among_o the_o person_n of_o the_o godhead_n but_o of_o what_o kind_n not_o of_o be_v for_o their_o essence_n be_v one_o and_o therein_o be_v none_o afore_o or_o after_o another_o neither_o be_v any_o one_o of_o the_o trinity_n more_o or_o less_o god_n than_o another_o not_o of_o time_n for_o they_o be_v all_o one_o eternity_n not_o of_o dignity_n for_o they_o be_v all_o one_o infinitie_o and_o the_o son_n himself_o be_v very_a god_n think_v it_o no_o robbery_n to_o be_v equal_a with_o god_n but_o yet_o there_o be_v priority_n and_o that_o of_o order_n only_o for_o the_o father_n be_v in_o order_n before_o the_o son_n because_o the_o son_n be_v beget_v of_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n likewise_o be_v before_o the_o holy_a ghost_n because_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v the_o mutual_a love_n between_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n and_o so_o proceed_v from_o they_o both_o i_o will_v make_v a_o comparison_n unmeet_a for_o the_o matter_n of_o which_o i_o speak_v for_o to_o who_o shall_v we_o assimilate_v the_o high_a but_o yet_o meet_a to_o help_v your_o understanding_n when_o a_o man_n do_v dream_n and_o imagine_v thing_n which_o be_v not_o there_o be_v you_o know_v the_o fantasy_n the_o phantasm_n or_o thing_n imagine_v or_o dream_v and_o the_o phansy_v or_o work_v of_o the_o fantasy_n about_o that_o object_n now_o these_o three_o be_v all_o of_o one_o nature_n and_o be_v one_o after_o another_o only_o in_o order_n

very_o brief_o show_v not_o many_o reason_n but_o rather_o how_o that_o many_o reason_n may_v be_v show_v for_o this_o christian_a assertion_n yet_o have_v i_o show_v enough_o to_o persuade_v any_o

but_o to_o entreat_v you_o by_o reasonable_a persuasion_n to_o incline_v your_o ear_n to_o the_o truth_n but_o because_o i_o may_v not_o without_o injury_n to_o the_o cause_n leave_v altogether_o
