innate_a even_o as_o the_o idea_n of_o i_o myself_o be_v natural_a to_o myself_o and_o true_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v admire_v that_o god_n in_o create_v i_o shall_v imprint_v this_o idea_n in_o i_o that_o it_o may_v there_o remain_v as_o a_o stamp_n impress_v by_o the_o workman_n god_n on_o i_o his_o work_n neither_o be_v it_o requisite_a that_o this_o stamp_n shall_v be_v a_o thing_n different_a from_o the_o work_n itself_o but_o it_o be_v very_o credible_a from_o hence_o only_o that_o god_n create_v i_o that_o i_o be_o make_v as_o it_o be_v according_a to_o his_o likeness_n and_o image_n and_o that_o the_o same_o likeness_n in_o which_o the_o idea_n of_o god_n be_v contain_v be_v perceive_v by_o i_o with_o the_o same_o faculty_n with_o which_o i_o perceive_v myself_o that_o be_v to_o say_v whilst_o i_o reflect_v upon_o myself_o i_o do_v not_o only_o perceive_v that_o i_o be_o a_o imperfect_a thing_n have_v my_o dependence_n upon_o some_o other_o thing_n and_o that_o i_o be_o a_o thing_n that_o desire_v more_o and_o better_a thing_n indefinite_o but_o also_o at_o the_o same_o time_n i_o understand_v that_o he_o on_o who_o i_o depend_v contain_v in_o he_o all_o those_o wish_v for_o thing_n not_o only_o indefinite_o and_o potential_o but_o real_o infinite_o and_o that_o therefore_o he_o be_v god_n the_o whole_a stress_n of_o which_o *_o argument_n lie_v thus_o because_o i_o know_v it_o impossible_a for_o i_o to_o be_v of_o the_o same_o nature_n i_o be_o viz_o have_v the_o idea_n of_o a_o god_n in_o i_o unless_o real_o there_o be_v a_o god_n a_o god_n i_o say_v that_o very_o same_o god_n who_o idea_n i_o have_v in_o my_o mind_n that_o be_v have_v all_o those_o perfection_n which_o i_o can_v comprehend●ut_v ●ut_z can_v as_o it_o be_v think_v upon_o they_o and_o who_o be_v not_o subject_a to_o any_o defect_n by_o which_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o god_n be_v no_o deceiver_n for_o it_o be_v manifest_a by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n that_o all_o fraud_n and_o deceit_n depend_v on_o some_o defect_n but_o before_o i_o prosecute_v this_o any_o far_a or_o pry_v into_o other_o truth_n which_o may_v be_v deduce_v from_o this_o i_o be_o willing_a here_o to_o stop_v and_o dwell_v upon_o the_o contemplation_n of_o this_o god_n to_o consider_v with_o myself_o his_o divine_a attribute_n to_o behold_v admire_v and_o adore_v the_o loveliness_n of_o this_o immense_a light_n as_o much_o as_o possible_o i_o be_o able_a to_o accomplish_v with_o my_o dark_a understanding_n for_o as_o by_o faith_n we_o believe_v that_o the_o great_a happiness_n of_o the_o next_o life_n consist_v alone_o in_o the_o contemplation_n of_o the_o divine_a majesty_n so_o we_o find_v by_o experience_n that_o now_o we_o receive_v from_o thence_o the_o great_a pleasure_n whereof_o we_o be_v capable_a in_o this_o life_n though_o it_o be_v much_o more_o imperfect_a than_o that_o in_o the_o next_o meditat_fw-la iv_o of_o truth_n and_o falsehood_n of_o late_a it_o have_v be_v so_o common_a with_o i_o to_o withdraw_v my_o mind_n from_o my_o sense_n and_o i_o have_v so_o thorough_o consider_v how_o few_o thing_n there_o be_v appertain_v to_o body_n that_o be_v true_o perceive_v and_o that_o there_o be_v more_o thing_n touch_v man_n mind_n and_o yet_o more_o concern_v god_n which_o be_v well_o know_v that_o now_o without_o any_o difficulty_n i_o can_v turn_v my_o thought_n from_o thing_n sensible_a to_o those_o which_o be_v only_o intelligible_a and_o abstract_v from_o matter_n and_o true_o i_o have_v a_o much_o more_o distinct_a idea_n of_o a_o man_n mind_n as_o it_o be_v a_o think_v thing_n have_v no_o corporeal_a dimension_n of_o length_n breadth_n and_o thickness_n nor_o have_v any_o other_o corporeal_a quality_n than_o the_o idea_n of_o any_o corporeal_a thing_n can_v be_v and_o when_o i_o reflect_v upon_o myself_o and_o consider_v how_o that_o i_o doubt_v that_o be_v be_o a_o imperfect_a dependent_a be_v i_o from_o hence_o collect_v such_o a_o clear_a and_o distinct_a idea_n of_o a_o independent_a perfect_a be_v which_o be_v god_n and_o from_o hence_o only_o that_o i_o have_v such_o a_o idea_n that_o be_v because_o i_o that_o have_v this_o idea_n do_v myself_o exist_v i_o do_v so_o clear_o conclude_v that_o god_n also_o exist_v and_o that_o on_o he_o my_o be_v depend_v each_o minute_n that_o i_o be_o confident_a nothing_o can_v be_v know_v more_o evident_o and_o certain_o by_o humane_a understanding_n and_o now_o i_o seem_v to_o perceive_v a_o method_n by_o which_o from_o this_o contemplation_n of_o the_o true_a god_n in_o who_o the_o treasure_n of_o knowledge_n and_o wisdom_n be_v hide_v i_o may_v attain_v the_o knowledge_n of_o other_o thing_n and_o first_o i_o know_v it_o be_v impossible_a that_o this_o god_n shall_v deceive_v i_o for_o in_o all_o cheat_a and_o deceit_n there_o be_v something_o of_o imperfection_n and_o tho_o to_o be_v able_a to_o deceive_v may_v seem_v to_o be_v a_o argument_n of_o ingenuity_n and_o power_n yet_o without_o doubt_n to_o have_v the_o will_n of_o deceive_v be_v a_o sign_n of_o malice_n and_o weakness_n and_o therefore_o be_v not_o incident_a to_o god_n i_o have_v also_o find_v in_o myself_o a_o judicative_a faculty_n which_o certain_o as_o all_o other_o thing_n i_o possess_v i_o have_v receive_v from_o god_n and_o see_v he_o will_v not_o deceive_v i_o he_o have_v sure_o give_v i_o such_o a_o judgement_n that_o i_o can_v never_o err_v whilst_o i_o make_v a_o right_o use_v of_o it_o of_o which_o truth_n i_o can_v make_v no_o doubt_n unless_o it_o seem_v that_o from_o hence_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o therefore_o i_o can_v never_o err_v for_o if_o whatever_o i_o have_v i_o have_v from_o god_n and_o if_o he_o give_v i_o no_o faculty_n of_o err_v i_o may_v seem_v not_o to_o be_v able_a to_o err._n and_o true_o so_o it_o be_v whilst_o i_o think_v upon_o god_n and_o whole_o convert_v myself_o to_o the_o consideration_n of_o he_o i_o find_v no_o occasion_n of_o error_n or_o deceit_n but_o yet_o when_o i_o return_v to_o the_o contemplation_n of_o myself_o i_o find_v myself_o liable_a to_o innumerable_a error_n inquire_v into_o the_o cause_n of_o which_o i_o find_v in_o myself_o a_o idea_n not_o only_o a_o real_a and_o positive_a one_o of_o a_o god_n that_o be_v of_o a_o be_v infinite_o perfect_a but_o also_o as_o i_o may_v so_o speak_v a_o negative_a idea_n of_o nothing_o that_o be_v to_o say_v i_o be_o so_o constitute_v between_o god_n and_o nothing_o or_o between_o a_o perfect_a be_v and_o no-being_a that_o as_o i_o be_o create_v by_o the_o high_a be_v i_o have_v nothing_o in_o i_o by_o which_o i_o may_v be_v deceive_v or_o draw_v into_o error_n but_o as_o i_o partake_v in_o a_o manner_n of_o nothing_o or_o of_o a_o no-being_a that_o be_v as_o i_o myself_o be_o not_o the_o high_a be_v and_o as_o i_o want_v many_o perfection_n it_o be_v no_o wonder_n that_o i_o shall_v be_v deceive_v by_o which_o i_o understand_v that_o error_n *_o as_o it_o be_v error_n be_v not_o any_o real_a be_v dependent_a on_o god_n but_o it_o be_v only_o a_o defect_n and_o that_o therefore_o to_o make_v i_o err_v there_o be_v not_o requisite_a a_o faculty_n of_o err_v give_v i_o by_o god_n but_o only_o it_o so_o happen_v that_o i_o err_v mere_o because_o the_o judicative_a faculty_n which_o he_o have_v give_v i_o be_v not_o infinite_a but_o yet_o this_o account_n be_v not_o full_o satisfactory_a for_o error_n be_v not_o only_o a_o mere_a negation_n but_o it_o be_v a_o privation_n or_o a_o want_n of_o a_o certain_a knowledge_n which_o ought_v as_o it_o be_v to_o be_v in_o i_o and_o when_o i_o consider_v the_o nature_n of_o god_n it_o seem_v impossible_a that_o he_o shall_v give_v i_o any_o faculty_n which_o be_v not_o perfect_a in_o its_o kind_n or_o which_o shall_v want_v any_o of_o its_o due_a perfection_n for_o if_o by_o how_o much_o the_o more_o skilful_a the_o workman_n be_v by_o so_o much_o the_o perfect_a work_n proceed_v from_o he_o what_o can_v be_v make_v by_o the_o great_a maker_n of_o all_o thing_n which_o be_v not_o full_o perfect_a for_o i_o can_v doubt_v but_o god_n may_v create_v i_o so_o that_o i_o may_v never_o be_v deceive_v neither_o can_v i_o doubt_v but_o that_o he_o will_v whatever_o be_v best_a be_v it_o therefore_o better_a for_o i_o to_o be_v deceive_v or_o not_o to_o be_v deceive_v these_o thing_n when_o i_o consider_v more_o heedful_o it_o come_v into_o my_o mind_n first_o that_o it_o be_v no_o cause_n of_o admiration_n that_o god_n shall_v do_v thing_n whereof_o i_o can_v give_v no_o account_n nor_o must_v i_o therefore_o doubt_v his_o be_v because_o there_o be_v many_o thing_n do_v by_o
