be_v it_o not_o therefore_o more_o rational_a for_o we_o to_o conceive_v that_o the_o soul_n of_o a_o child_n prae-exists_a in_o its_o parent_n and_o take_v its_o original_n from_o they_o and_o they_o be_v sinner_n do_v entangle_v their_o child_n in_o their_o sin_n by_o which_o mean_n they_o get_v a_o share_n in_o their_o guilt_n and_o punishment_n and_o may_v not_o we_o in_o this_o way_n often_o be_v inform_v of_o the_o sin_n by_o the_o punishment_n and_o learn_v the_o sin_n of_o parent_n and_o forefather_n by_o the_o punishment_n inflict_v on_o their_o child_n as_o if_o we_o shall_v suppose_v a_o wild_a appletree_n that_o have_v two_o main_a bough_n shall_v have_v one_o of_o they_o cut_v off_o and_o that_o a_o twig_n take_v from_o the_o same_o shall_v be_v graft_v upon_o the_o

a_o suffering_n or_o die_v do_v advance_v it_o to_o a_o better_a life_n whereas_o on_o the_o contrary_a the_o branch_n of_o the_o other_o bough_n continue_v as_o they_o be_v because_o be_v without_o suffering_n or_o die_v it_o can_v be_v advance_v to_o a_o new_a life_n and_o may_v not_o we_o with_o truth_n infer_v that_o for_o this_o very_a reason_n that_o passage_n of_o god_n visit_v the_o parent_n upon_o the_o child_n unto_o the_o three_o and_o four_o generation_n be_v insert_v into_o the_o second_o commandment_n 19_o q._n if_o any_o one_o here_o shall_v object_v that_o forasmuch_o

proportion_n between_o the_o reward_n and_o punishment_n of_o god_n may_v we_o not_o answer_v this_o objection_n thus_o first_o we_o ought_v well_o to_o mind_n that_o both_o of_o they_o be_v bound_v within_o a_o certain_a number_n and_o again_o that_o god_n reward_n always_o exceed_v his_o punish_n to_o the_o glory_n and_o magnify_v of_o his_o mercy_n and_o goodness_n which_o by_o far_o exceed_v his_o severity_n and_o vengeance_n in_o the_o three_o place_n that_o sin_n be_v a_o fall_v off_o from_o god_n downward_o which_o in_o a_o short_a time_n come_v to_o its_o end_n whereas_o the_o recovery_n and_o bring_v again_o to_o god_n do_v still_o mount_v upward_o and_o ascend_v high_o and_o high_o to_o infinity_o because_o the_o divine_a glory_n have_v neither_o end_n nor_o limit_n and_o that_o still_o near_o and_o near_a approach_n be_v make_v to_o god_n in_o all_o eternity_n last_o for_o that_o wickedness_n must_v and_o shall_v have_v a_o end_n because_o there_o can_v be_v no_o eternal_a or_o infinite_a will._n wherefore_o the_o punishment_n of_o wicked_a man_n be_v not_o to_o be_v look_v upon_o as_o that_o whereby_o the_o creature_n shall_v still_o become_v worse_o and_o worse_o but_o as_o it_o be_v in_o order_n to_o the_o change_n of_o it_o from_o evil_a to_o good_a for_o that_o when_o the_o evil_a be_v transchange_v the_o good_a than_o begin_v to_o work_v upward_o by_o innumerable_a step_n of_o ascension_n towards_o god_n though_o it_o can_v never_o reach_v so_o high_a as_o to_o reach_v his_o be_v or_o essence_n forasmuch_o as_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o a_o creature_n shall_v become_v god_n but_o must_v therefore_o continue_v to_o mount_v upward_o and_o continual_o attain_v to_o more_o and_o great_a degree_n of_o glory_n for_o be_v not_o every_o
