corporal_a thing_n be_v frame_v be_v of_o one_o and_o the_o same_o kind_n and_o by_o that_o reason_n all_o your_o material_a species_n or_o kind_n be_v unite_v and_o couple_v together_o and_o because_o that_o the_o form_n of_o the_o compound_n which_o must_v necessary_o be_v sundry_a and_o diverse_a to_o make_v a_o perfect_a and_o fair_a compound_n shall_v not_o deviate_v from_o that_o

of_o nature_n and_o the_o devil_n own_o child_n from_o the_o precedent_a chapter_n we_o may_v by_o very_o good_a consequence_n infer_v that_o which_o we_o seek_v to_o prove_v in_o this_o for_o if_o

of_o necessity_n be_v contrary_n to_o god_n and_o nature_n be_v altogether_o averse_a to_o the_o noble_a perfection_n that_o our_o understanding_n can_v conceive_v in_o god_n which_o be_v unity_n and_o simplicity_n wherewith_o his_o divine_a attribute_n and_o perfection_n be_v so_o indivisible_o unite_v together_o that_o no_o manner_n of_o distinction_n can_v be_v admit_v between_o they_o either_o real_a formal_a or_o fundamental_a as_o divine_n do_v term_v they_o unless_o we_o shall_v allow_v of_o the_o distinction_n of_o reason_n which_o our_o understanding_n licentious_o frame_v conceive_v that_o to_o be_v distinct_a which_o in_o itself_o be_v indivisible_o one_o daily_a experience_n show_v we_o the_o great_a repugnancy_n and_o contrariety_n that_o be_v between_o discord_n and_o nature_n either_o of_o they_o show_v it_o by_o their_o effect_n see_v the_o proper_a and_o principal_a end_n of_o the_o one_o be_v to_o corrupt_v diminish_v ruin_n and_o undo_v of_o the_o other_o to_o generate_v to_o join_v to_o multiply_v and_o unite_v all_o worldly_a thing_n with_o the_o most_o firm_a bond_n of_o peace_n because_o that_o know_v by_o evident_a induction_n that_o discord_n and_o enmity_n be_v enemy_n unto_o god_n and_o the_o very_a plague_n of_o nature_n we_o may_v with_o good_a reason_n conclude_v they_o to_o be_v the_o work_n of_o the_o devil_n wrought_v by_o his_o own_o hand_n so_o pestilent_a a_o fruit_n doubtless_o proceed_v from_o such_o a_o accurse_a tree_n the_o apostle_n do_v in_o three_o word_n admirable_o set_v down_o the_o genealogy_n and_o descent_n of_o this_o fierce_a monster_n say_v that_o through_o the_o devil_n envy_n death_n be_v come_v into_o the_o world_n wherein_o we_o must_v note_v according_a to_o the_o exposition_n of_o some_o doctor_n that_o the_o apostle_n in_o this_o place_n call_v dissension_n and_o discord_n by_o the_o name_n of_o death_n and_o that_o very_o proper_o see_v that_o the_o doctor_n meaning_n by_o death_n as_o well_o the_o soul_n as_o the_o body_n death_n we_o shall_v find_v death_n to_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o wretched_a separation_n and_o unfortunate_a divorce_n tend_v to_o ruin_v and_o perdition_n and_o as_o for_o the_o death_n of_o the_o body_n none_o can_v be_v so_o ignorant_a as_o to_o deny_v this_o truth_n behold_v with_o his_o own_o eye_n the_o dissolution_n of_o the_o straight_a and_o internall_a friendship_n as_o human_a understanding_n can_v conceive_v and_o after_o that_o the_o miserable_a accident_n which_o ordinary_o accompany_v a_o dead_a carcase_n and_o if_o this_o passage_n be_v take_v for_o spiritual_a death_n it_o be_v a_o enmity_n and_o divorce_n between_o god_n and_o the_o soul_n and_o not_o a_o ordinary_a divorce_n but_o a_o infinite_a one_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o infinite_a distance_n that_o be_v between_o god_n and_o a_o sinner_n we_o still_o conclude_v that_o death_n and_o discord_n be_v one_o and_o the_o self_n same_o thing_n and_o both_o daughter_n to_o the_o devil_n and_o envy_n as_o the_o apostle_n say_v the_o motive_n which_o move_v the_o devil_n to_o bring_v this_o accurse_a dissension_n into_o the_o world_n be_v a_o cruel_a and_o impatient_a rage_n against_o man_n be_v not_o able_a to_o endure_v that_o god_n shall_v grow_v enamour_v of_o so_o ugly_a base_a and_o wretched_a a_o nature_n as_o human_a nature_n be_v and_o that_o he_o shall_v enrich_v it_o with_o so_o many_o extraordinary_a favour_n and_o privilege_n as_o unite_v himself_o hypostatical_o to_o it_o and_o make_v it_o the_o instrument_n of_o
