every_o live_a creature_n stand_v in_o need_n of_o daily_a food_n to_o repair_v that_o which_o perish_v of_o the_o substance_n every_o day_n for_o life_n consist_v in_o heat_n and_o heat_n be_v that_o

creature_n be_v mix_v of_o water_n and_o spirit_n now_o there_o be_v matter_n without_o spirit_n the_o pure_a element_n therefore_o there_o be_v spirit_n also_o without_o matter_n 2_o as_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o world_n be_v divide_v into_o four_o kind_n the_o four_o element_n so_o we_o see_v already_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o world_n to_o be_v distinguish_v into_o the_o natural_a vital_a animal_n and_o mental_a spirit_n now_o the_o low_a degree_n be_v to_o be_v find_v alone_o as_o in_o concretes_n therefore_o the_o high_a may_v be_v find_v alone_o to_o wit_n in_o the_o angel_n 3_o every_o creature_n be_v compound_v of_o entity_n and_o nihility_n for_o they_o be_v nothing_o before_o the_o creation_n but_o now_o they_o be_v something_o because_o the_o cretour_n have_v bestow_v on_o they_o of_o his_o entity_n more_o or_o less_o by_o degree_n by_o how_o much_o the_o more_o entity_n any_o thing_n have_v so_o much_o the_o further_o it_o be_v from_o nihility_n and_o on_o the_o

also_o which_o come_v near_a to_o a_o pure_a entity_n but_o man_n be_v not_o such_o because_o have_v matter_n admix_v he_o partake_v much_o of_o nihility_n therefore_o of_o necessity_n there_o be_v a_o creature_n with_o which_o materiality_n be_v take_v away_o all_o other_o perfection_n remain_v and_o that_o be_v a_o angel_n two_o a_o angel_n be_v a_o incorporeal_a man_n a_o angel_n may_v be_v call_v a_o man_n in_o the_o same_o sense_n that_o man_n himself_o be_v call_v a_o animal_n and_o a_o animal_n a_o plant_n and_o a_o plant_n a_o concrete_a etc._n etc._n as_o we_o have_v set_v down_o in_o their_o definition_n that_o be_v by_o reason_n of_o the_o form_n of_o the_o precedent_n include_v with_o a_o new_a perfection_n only_a superadd_v for_o a_o man_n be_v a_o rational_a creature_n make_v after_o the_o image_n of_o god_n immortal_a so_o be_v a_o angel_n but_o for_o more_o perfection_n sake_n free_a from_o a_o body_n therefore_o a_o angel_n be_v nothing_o but_o a_o man_n without_o a_o body_n a_o man_n be_v nothing_o but_o a_o angel_n clothe_v with_o a_o body_n but_o that_o angel_n be_v incorporous_a appear_v 1_o because_o although_o they_o be_v present_a they_o be_v not_o discern_v neither_o by_o the_o sight_n or_o any_o other_o sense_n 2_o because_o they_o assume_v to_o themselves_o earthly_a watery_a airy_a fiery_a or_o mix_v body_n as_o need_n require_v and_o put_v they_o off_o again_o which_o they_o can_v not_o do_v if_o they_o have_v body_n of_o their_o own_o as_o we_o have_v yet_o ordinary_o they_o appear_v in_o a_o humane_a form_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o likeness_n of_o their_o nature_n as_o we_o have_v say_v iii_o angel_n be_v create_v before_o all_o visible_a thing_n that_o be_v show_v in_o the_o apendix_n of_o the_o first_o chapter_n you_o may_v see_v it_o again_o if_o need_v be_v and_o moses_n word_n be_v clear_a in_o the_o beginning_n god_n create_v the_o heaven_n and_o the_o earth_n and_o the_o earth_n be_v void_a see_v the_o earth_n be_v in_o that_o first_o production_n empty_a and_o void_a therefore_o heaven_n be_v not_o void_a than_o it_o be_v fill_v with_o its_o host_n the_o angel_n iv_o the_o angel_n be_v create_v out_o of_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o world_n as_o moses_n seem_v to_o comprehend_v the_o production_n of_o angel_n under_o the_o name_n of_o heaven_n so_o also_o the_o universal_a spirit_n for_o he_o â—oth_v

water_n intimate_v thus_o much_o that_o it_o be_v in_o be_v before_o we_o conclude_v therefore_o that_o the_o angel_n be_v form_v out_o of_o that_o spirit_n so_o that_o part_n of_o that_o spirit_n be_v leave_v in_o the_o invisible_a heaven_n and_o shape_v into_o mere_a spiritual_a substance_n angel_n and_o part_v send_v down_o into_o the_o material_a world_n below_o after_o the_o same_o
