you_o the_o word_n of_o a_o author_n of_o no_o small_a repute_n among_o they_o speak_v of_o the_o very_a same_o comparison_n of_o the_o difference_n of_o face_n and_o mind_n alii_fw-la aliis_fw-la

do_v make_v a_o several_a species_n so_o that_o there_o be_v no_o numericall_a distinction_n of_o the_o angel_n but_o a_o specifical_a and_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o be_v because_o those_o thing_n

than_o john_n the_o baptist_n &_o all_o saint_n compare_v among_o themselves_o be_v either_o great_a or_o less_o therefore_o he_o who_o have_v none_o great_a than_o himself_o must_v needs_o be_v

there_o be_v two_o answer_n give_v first_o that_o this_o speak_v in_o comparison_n of_o the_o angel_n who_o be_v only_o yet_o the_o inhabitor_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n for_o say_v they_o when_o christ_n speak_v these_o word_n the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n be_v not_o open_a unto_o the_o soul_n and_o spirit_n of_o man_n the_o key_n of_o that_o be_v the_o resurrection_n and_o ascension_n of_o christ_n till_o than_o there_o be_v no_o man_n in_o heaven_n as_o if_o our_o saviour_n shall_v have_v say_v nevertheless_o all_o this_o greatness_n of_o john_n which_o i_o have_v make_v mention_n of_o the_o least_o in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n i_o the_o least_o among_o the_o angel_n be_v great_a than_o he_o because_o john_n notwithstanding_o all_o these_o commendation_n be_v but_o a_o man_n but_o the_o angelical_a nature_n be_v far_o great_a than_o the_o nature_n of_o man_n but_o this_o answer_n carry_v along_o with_o it_o a_o point_n in_o controversy_n not_o yet_o determine_v among_o we_o as_o grant_v and_o therefore_o can_v full_o satisfy_v second_o the_o answer_n be_v that_o he_o who_o be_v the_o least_o in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n be_v great_a than_o john_n the_o baptist_n mean_v that_o he_o be_v great_a pro_fw-la nunc_fw-la great_a while_o john_n live_v upon_o the_o earth_n and_o this_o greatness_n arise_v a_o securitate_fw-la &_o fruitione_n from_o security_n and_o fruition_n for_o he_o who_o ride_v in_o his_o triumphant_a chariot_n must_v needs_o be_v say_v to_o be_v great_a and_o happy_a than_o he_o who_o be_v yet_o in_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o battle_n
