I. where he fhewes n how rich compounds earth and water be‘, as Cbymiqu: indullries for n fepnration, have difcovered,infomuch as in them, as he noteth, is con: tcinccl a 7rawa'7rt.ppu'at. or general] magazine; the common matter be; ing from the fitfl: creation , not leane and hungry. but fem and pm-5 (Eminent with Formes pattiall and incompleate. This allbis the ind; choations of forums and the ratianerfemimzlu ptxéxiltent, which man, my learned men have often f'avourc.d,and which, being thus explained, and in which this fence of ours can {buffer nothing from the objections of Ganduwnfix. or Dumndm. , This lallly, is nothing elle, but in a good fence, an edueiion of format‘ ex parennfe mat,eri4,, which is ex!‘- mflarle: and his Dilciples Doéicrine; for,i_t_cannot be thought, that A- nflatle ever intended to prcflhfbt fqiteezel any formes out of the dry skeleton ofmaterin prime, which matteryis :4 principles onely receptive, and nopromptuary out of which to cducc afornte by virtue of yanyy A natutall agent whatfoever; for in fuch a {pare entity“ as that what fe- cundity is imaginable? And fdmuch touching the ortgmall of Formes; s which is one of the abfhufelt and nicelt points in all philofophy, and that which by vulgar authors is msanlicli handled, and by the wifell: is knowne but by conjecture. Thus his main: argument is anfwered, after which all the rel} will - fall downs headlong with any light touch, though but of a finger. Immediately after this he argueth out of Gen. 3. :9. where Adam A is told. that For his difobcdience,he mufi turne into that dull of which he was made; out of which he concludes,that all and every part oh!- dam muli be converted into daft: which, if it be [0, as he faycth, then not only his earthly particles,but his aiery,Watry and fiery pattcs mull to dull allo, and not only his body, but his loule, ifhe have any, muff be turned into the fame matter. See what fine conclulions follow out , of this mortal! foules philolophy; It fufiiced then,,that {o much of ‘ his body, or of the whole man was to returncy to dull as had beene . made up of it. Ansllby this alone, the commination of God is fullfill-3 ed Without any more adoc. t After this he comes upon us with his falfc Lhtin, {tying as follow? l i cth. i ‘i Death reduceth this pradufiia mri: ex mm arm ad Nb»-entem, . " rcturncs man to what he was before he Was“ : , that is,not: to be,&c. , and by and by, citing impcttincntly two or three places of §cripturc.j '\ falls (7.) ‘ falls toanother argument dtawen from the l‘€fl!l‘l'€fl'f0tn: As for the Latino word Nan-entem whether itbe tight, or no, we will not examine, but apply one {elves to the eonfidetation of the ienfe which is as faulty as the Latxne can he: know therefore in breife. ‘ that death did not reduce Adam to new em, but to new ufdam; it dlid” not eaufe him abfolutely not to be, but onelynot to be man, or 9/fdam any’ longer. And fotafmuch as concetnes hts body, itxts eonfell and certaine; that it was not turned by death or mortality into nothing, or mm em, but intojdufl whichis an em; or fomething; that is to fay, his body was not annihilated, but corrupted; and to“ dye, is not wholly to l A beledefltoyed, but patttally only, whlch arfl'_1s all one with difl‘olution.‘ A Now, if to thetotall mortahzmg ofman. xtbe not neceflhry that his body he delltoyetlt, then can it not be needfull that his fault fhould be fo, and thusour advetlatiesftout argument is morethen mottalized, for it comes to nothing". which ntamby dying does not. We will not deny him, but that the lfeule ofmandld die and die a3 gains, as much as it waseapable of death; for fitll it dyed by the being {eparated from the body; fecondly, by-being fubjefied unto damna- A tion. which, aswe know, is called in fctipture a feeond death. But as for the annihilation of it, or of the bod y,that is it which _we deny; anal to to doe we have jnll reafon.
