if_o a_o live_a creature_n endue_v with_o reason_n than_o a_o man_n and_o both_o of_o they_o contain_v one_o and_o the_o same_o truth_n thus_o have_v we_o do_v with_o the_o definition_n we_o must_v come_v to_o a_o description_n next_o chap._n xxxvii_o of_o a_o description_n a_o description_n be_v a_o sentence_n which_o set_v out_o a_o thing_n ramus_n ramus_n even_o by_o other_o argument_n this_o precept_n be_v agree_v on_o by_o all_o party_n as_o the_o reader_n may_v find_v in_o the_o forego_n chapter_n therefore_o we_o need_v not_o make_v doubt_n whether_o it_o belong_v to_o this_o art_n or_o no_o it_o be_v reasonable_a clear_a therefore_o a_o few_o word_n will_v prevent_v all_o doubtfulness_n in_o it_o a_o thing_n that_o be_v the_o thing_n describe_v now_o the_o thing_n describe_v seem_v to_o be_v of_o short_a scantling_n than_o the_o thing_n define_v a_o singular_a or_o individual_a substance_n may_v be_v describe_v but_o not_o define_v for_o so_o we_o hear_v from_o aristotle_n in_o the_o forego_n chapter_n and_o he_o make_v it_o a_o law_n that_o every_o definition_n must_v be_v universal_a but_o that_o proposition_n where_o a_o individual_a thing_n be_v subject_v be_v not_o universal_a other_o argument_n these_o word_n do_v contain_v the_o formal_a nature_n of_o a_o imperfect_a definition_n the_o word_n argument_n import_v a_o affirmative_a predication_n in_o a_o description_n for_o dissent_v argument_n can_v describe_v nor_o define_v no_o not_o in_o the_o most_o unperfect_a manner_n for_o define_v how_o imperfect_a so_o ever_o it_o be_v must_v needs_o import_v that_o the_o thing_n be_v in_o some_o sort_n or_o other_o but_o dissent_v argument_n do_v not_o serve_v in_o the_o least_o sort_n to_o set_v out_o what_o a_o thing_n be_v they_o have_v force_v to_o show_v what_o a_o thing_n be_v not_o and_o no_o more_o the_o word_n other_o do_v signify_v that_o the_o argument_n whereby_o a_o thing_n be_v describe_v be_v mix_v and_o be_v partly_o essential_a partly_o without_o the_o essence_n where_o we_o must_v know_v that_o the_o more_o near_a argument_n be_v unto_o the_o essence_n the_o more_o force_n they_o have_v to_o set_v out_o the_o thing_n describe_v and_o the_o more_o true_o that_o sentence_n wherein_o they_o be_v predicate_v may_v be_v call_v by_o the_o name_n of_o a_o definition_n here_o it_o may_v be_v doubt_v whether_o a_o description_n may_v be_v make_v in_o any_o part_n by_o accident_n i_o answer_v no_o accident_n as_o it_o be_v a_o accident_n have_v place_n in_o a_o definition_n and_o i_o think_v so_o because_o aristotle_n do_v perpetual_o forbid_v accident_n to_o come_v within_o the_o door_n of_o any_o definition_n a_o accident_n according_a to_o aristotle_n may_v in_o some_o respect_n and_o at_o some_o time_n become_v proper_a and_o in_o that_o case_n they_o may_v serve_v to_o describe_v a_o individual_a subject_n as_o this_o or_o that_o singular_a man_n may_v be_v make_v know_v to_o we_o and_o difference_v from_o all_o other_o by_o riches_n learning_n etc._n etc._n which_o he_o enjoy_v and_o none_o other_o now_o we_o see_v what_o argument_n be_v dispose_v in_o a_o description_n and_o how_o they_o be_v refer_v the_o one_o to_o the_o other_o it_o remain_v that_o i_o declare_v what_o truth_n there_o be_v in_o it_o in_o a_o description_n there_o be_v a_o necessary_a truth_n i_o say_v necessary_a truth_n not_o of_o constitution_n for_o that_o be_v proper_a to_o a_o perfect_a definition_n where_o the_o thing_n define_v and_o the_o definition_n do_v constitute_v each_o other_o and_o be_v adaquat_o the_o same_o thing_n according_a to_o the_o sentence_n of_o thomas_n 1_o do_v 25._o q._n 1._o art_n 1._o ad_fw-la 2m._o but_o of_o emanation_n effluence_n and_o consecution_n in_o as_o much_o as_o the_o argument_n describe_v be_v at_o least_o so_o proper_a unto_o the_o thing_n describe_v that_o they_o come_v convertible_a therewith_o and_o it_o can_v but_o be_v so_o for_o if_o the_o property_n do_v belong_v to_o the_o species_n or_o the_o whole_a kind_n than_o they_o be_v necessary_a emanation_n from_o the_o principle_n of_o nature_n belong_v to_o that_o kind_n and_o therefore_o they_o stand_v and_o fall_v together_o if_o the_o property_n appertain_v to_o a_o individual_a than_o they_o have_v a_o necessary_a connexion_n therewith_o through_o a_o peculiar_a right_n and_o possession_n i_o will_v add_v a_o instance_n or_o two_o and_o thereby_o the_o nature_n and_o truth_n of_o this_o precept_n will_v be_v make_v evident_a and_o clear_a a_o man_n be_v a_o live_a creature_n mortal_a and_o capable_a of_o learning_n in_o this_o sentence_n man_n abstract_v from_o individualitie_n that_o be_v not_o consider_v as_o this_o or_o that_o particular_a man_n be_v describe_v all_o the_o word_n that_o follow_v the_o verb_n be_v contain_v the_o description_n these_o two_o term_n viz._n mortal_a and_o capable_a of_o learning_n be_v join_v together_o by_o that_o verb_n and_o thereby_o the_o description_n be_v affirmative_a the_o word_n live_v creature_n be_v essential_a to_o man_n for_o it_o be_v the_o whole_a shot_n as_o i_o may_v say_v or_o comprehension_n of_o all_o the_o part_n of_o his_o nature_n in_o general_n the_o word_n capable_a of_o learning_n import_v a_o thing_n proper_a unto_o mankind_n that_o be_v as_o he_o be_v formal_o this_o kind_n of_o creature_n which_o we_o call_v man_n and_o therefore_o that_o attribute_n border_v next_o of_o all_o to_o man_n particular_a essence_n the_o word_n mortal_a import_v a_o accident_n now_o make_v proper_a to_o man_n i_o say_v it_o be_v a_o accident_n and_o no_o more_o because_o it_o flow_v not_o from_o the_o principle_n of_o his_o nature_n man_n reasonable_a soul_n be_v the_o chief_a thing_n in_o his_o be_v but_o mortality_n flow_v not_o from_o that_o for_o the_o soul_n be_v live_v so_o say_v the_o lord_n he_o breathe_v in_o his_o face_n the_o breath_n of_o life_n and_o he_o become_v a_o live_a soul_n genesis_n 2.7_o mortality_n be_v now_o proper_a to_o all_o man_n because_o they_o all_o be_v subject_v to_o death_n i_o say_v it_o be_v proper_a to_o they_o all_o not_o because_o they_o do_v and_o must_v die_v but_o because_o all_o of_o they_o and_o none_o but_o they_o must_v die_v after_o that_o sort_n that_o be_v by_o accident_n all_o other_o creature_n be_v subject_a to_o dissolution_n by_o that_o nature_n which_o they_o have_v from_o god_n by_o creation_n but_o man_n be_v subject_a to_o death_n by_o imposition_n he_o incur_v his_o mortality_n when_o he_o sin_v god_n threaten_v it_o before_o man_n sin_v genesis_n 2.17_o and_o inflict_v it_o when_o man_n have_v sin_v rom._n 5.12_o but_o that_o have_v never_o be_v if_o the_o principle_n of_o man_n nature_n have_v incline_v and_o fit_v he_o to_o mortality_n this_o be_v so_o we_o may_v well_o conclude_v man_n mortality_n be_v very_o little_a distant_a from_o man_n nature_n and_o consequent_o this_o proposition_n be_v a_o definition_n somewhat_o unperfect_a there_o be_v a_o necessary_a truth_n in_o this_o description_n for_o the_o thing_n define_v and_o that_o wherewith_o it_o be_v define_v be_v convertible_a the_o sentence_n be_v equal_o true_a which_o way_n soever_o you_o take_v it_o if_o it_o be_v read_v as_o it_o lie_v all_o man_n will_v grant_v it_o if_o we_o invert_v the_o part_n and_o say_v thus_o every_o live_a creature_n that_o be_v mortal_a and_o capable_a of_o learning_n be_v man_n no_o man_n will_v deny_v it_o but_o this_o truth_n be_v not_o constitutive_a for_o mortality_n and_o capacity_n unto_o learning_n as_o they_o be_v conceive_v by_o themselves_o and_o as_o they_o be_v in_o themselves_o have_v no_o share_n in_o man_n essence_n but_o be_v a_o thing_n flow_v therefrom_o and_o be_v it_o not_o for_o a_o three_o thing_n that_o come_v between_o they_o they_o may_v and_o may_v not_o belong_v to_o man_n any_o way_n this_o truth_n be_v necessary_a by_o emanation_n and_o consecution_n for_o take_v man_n as_o he_o be_v a_o man_n he_o must_v needs_o be_v reasonable_a as_o he_o be_v reasonable_a he_o can_v but_o be_v capable_a of_o learning_n take_v he_o as_o he_o be_v now_o a_o man_n and_o he_o must_v needs_o be_v mortal_a for_o he_o sin_v and_o god_n impose_v mortality_n upon_o he_o we_o have_v another_o example_n of_o a_o description_n in_o the_o 2_o epistle_n to_o the_o thessalonian_o the_o 2._o chapter_n and_o 3._o verse_n etc._n etc._n which_o fit_v this_o place_n well_o antichrist_n a_o individual_a be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o man_n of_o sin_n the_o son_n of_o perdition_n a_o outlaw_n etc._n etc._n now_o all_o these_o be_v accident_n yet_o they_o become_v proper_a unto_o he_o in_o that_o sense_n wherein_o the_o holy_a ghost_n mean_v they_o and_o that_o
