and_o crumble_v into_o dust_n for_o we_o to_o have_v a_o true_a and_o adequate_a notion_n of_o immortality_n and_o incorruptibility_n be_v a_o thing_n that_o can_v never_o enter_v into_o the_o mind_n of_o man_n to_o believe_v all_o our_o knowledge_n of_o god_n be_v inadequate_a and_o imperfect_a we_o say_v he_o be_v a_o be_v of_o infinite_a wisdom_n and_o infinite_a goodness_n and_o infinite_a power_n but_o all_o that_o we_o do_v true_o understand_v by_o these_o word_n be_v that_o he_o have_v all_o that_o wisdom_n and_o power_n and_o goodness_n which_o we_o have_v or_o can_v discern_v in_o other_o creature_n and_o all_o that_o we_o want_v but_o how_o much_o or_o what_o wisdom_n that_o be_v which_o we_o want_v we_o know_v not_o for_o that_o very_a reason_n because_o we_o want_v it_o and_o because_o we_o come_v infinite_o short_a of_o it_o so_o that_o after_o all_o it_o appear_v plain_o from_o whence_o we_o have_v that_o notion_n of_o god_n which_o we_o find_v dwell_v upon_o our_o mind_n we_o receive_v it_o from_o our_o self_n and_o from_o the_o object_n about_o we_o by_o ascribe_v to_o god_n all_o the_o perfection_n which_o belong_v to_o the_o creature_n and_o so_o much_o more_o as_o they_o want_v and_o by_o exclude_v or_o praescind_v as_o the_o school_n term_v it_o all_o their_o imperfection_n and_o the_o case_n be_v the_o same_o as_o when_o i_o say_v such_o a_o man_n be_v a_o excellent_a mathematician_n another_o a_o excellent_a orator_n or_o poet_n or_o musician_n that_o be_v they_o have_v all_o that_o skill_n in_o these_o art_n which_o i_o have_v and_o a_o great_a deal_n more_o which_o i_o have_v not_o and_o of_o which_o for_o that_o reason_n i_o can_v have_v no_o apprehension_n which_o idea_n be_v manifest_o raise_v by_o myself_o after_o a_o confuse_a manner_n not_o imprint_v by_o the_o artist_n himself_o upon_o my_o mind_n any_o otherwise_o then_o as_o his_o work_n and_o performance_n in_o the_o several_a kind_n give_v i_o some_o rude_a conception_n and_o inadequate_a idea_n of_o he_o but_o it_o be_v certain_a if_o he_o himself_o have_v be_v to_o leave_v his_o own_o impression_n upon_o i_o he_o will_v have_v make_v it_o like_o himself_o and_o by_o consequence_n i_o shall_v have_v have_v the_o same_o skill_n in_o these_o faculty_n which_o he_o have_v attain_v just_o so_o it_o be_v with_o god_n a_o inadequate_a idea_n or_o notion_n of_o he_o may_v be_v form_v by_o ourselves_o from_o the_o work_n of_o the_o creation_n without_o have_v recourse_n to_o any_o supernatural_a impression_n but_o a_o adequate_a idea_n i_o can_v have_v without_o be_v a_o god_n myself_o for_o no_o one_o can_v have_v a_o true_a and_o perfect_a notion_n of_o infinite_a goodness_n wisdom_n or_o power_n but_o he_o that_o be_v the_o possessor_n of_o they_o and_o he_o without_o question_n can_v be_v no_o less_o then_o god_n six_o and_o last_o by_o this_o it_o appear_v how_o frivolous_a this_o argument_n of_o des_n cartez_n draw_v from_o the_o idea_n be_v that_o after_o all_o according_a to_o he_o it_o be_v but_o the_o idea_n of_o a_o unextended_a substance_n that_o be_v in_o plain_a english_a of_o a_o necessary_a nothing_o and_o it_o appear_v likewise_o that_o god_n never_o imprint_v this_o idea_n upon_o any_o man_n mind_n for_o this_o will_v be_v but_o to_o deceive_v and_o abuse_v we_o and_o to_o make_v our_o intellectual_a faculty_n which_o can_v have_v no_o notion_n of_o any_o thing_n which_o be_v not_o extend_v to_o contradict_v his_o impression_n and_o consequent_o leave_v we_o in_o a_o doubt_n and_o perplexity_n never_o to_o be_v resolve_v what_o notion_n or_o idea_n we_o be_v to_o entertain_v concern_v he_o and_o thus_o i_o have_v consider_v more_o large_o then_o ever_o any_o writer_n have_v hitherto_o do_v before_o i_o the_o manifest_a inconclusiveness_n of_o the_o cartesian_a argument_n draw_v from_o the_o idea_n and_o that_o be_v substitute_v in_o the_o stead_n of_o that_o which_o be_v use_v former_o to_o be_v take_v from_o the_o admirable_a structure_n and_o contrivance_n of_o the_o world_n it_o seem_v rather_o to_o have_v be_v do_v with_o a_o design_n to_o introduce_v atheism_n then_o with_o a_o

dispatch_v what_o remain_v further_a to_o be_v speak_v upon_o this_o argument_n i_o will_v do_v these_o three_o thing_n first_o i_o will_v go_v on_o to_o give_v some_o other_o proof_n that_o des_n

his_o existence_n second_o i_o will_v propose_v some_o further_a consideration_n for_o the_o proof_n of_o this_o great_a and_o fundamental_a doctrine_n of_o religion_n that_o god_n be_v a_o be_v infinite_o extend_v three_o i_o will_v show_v the_o advantage_n of_o this_o way_n of_o procedure_v for_o the_o proof_n of_o the_o existence_n of_o god_n and_o for_o the_o demonstrate_v as_o far_o as_o human_a apprehension_n can_v reach_v what_o thought_n we_o be_v to_o entertain_v concern_v his_o nature_n i_o begin_v with_o the_o first_o that_o be_v to_o give_v some_o other_o proof_n that_o des_n

which_o i_o shall_v instance_n in_o shall_v be_v his_o banish_n of_o final_a cause_n out_o of_o his_o philosophy_n that_o be_v the_o scripture_n do_v express_o assure_v we_o that_o the_o heaven_n be_v
