upon_o they_o they_o all_o grant_v liberty_n and_o merit_n in_o such_o human_a action_n as_o have_v conformity_n to_o the_o dictamen_fw-la of_o conscience_n for_o in_o this_o consist_v the_o

which_o he_o can_v avoid_v hence_o i_o conclude_v that_o merit_n and_o freewill_n be_v not_o compatible_a with_o that_o infallibility_n which_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n pretend_v to_o which_o be_v

effect_n thereof_o for_o great_a difficulty_n be_v make_v how_o natural_a cause_n can_v produce_v supernatural_a effect_n on_o pretence_n that_o none_o but_o a_o omnipotent_a power_n can_v elevate_v

in_o some_o case_n a_o denomination_n may_v be_v appropriate_v to_o the_o whole_a which_o can_v be_v apply_v to_o the_o part_n thereof_o if_o take_v separately_z as_o the_o compound_n of_o a_o body_n

extant_a in_o this_o case_n a_o real_a effect_n can_v proceed_v from_o they_o all_o neither_o by_o a_o physical_a action_n nor_o by_o a_o physical_a determination_n but_o this_o real_a effect_n must_v
