that_o the_o impress_n of_o spontaneous_a motion_n be_v neither_o from_o the_o animal_n spirit_n nor_o from_o the_o brain_n etc._n etc._n therefore_o that_o those_o operation_n that_o be_v usual_o attribute_v unto_o the_o soul_n be_v real_o incompatible_a to_o any_o part_n of_o the_o body_n and_o therefore_o as_o in_o the_o last_o chapter_n i_o hint_v i_o say_v that_o the_o soul_n be_v not_o a_o mere_a modification_n of_o the_o body_n but_o a_o substance_n distinct_a therefrom_o now_o we_o be_v to_o inquire_v whether_o this_o substance_n distinct_a from_o what_o we_o ordinary_o call_v the_o body_n be_v also_o itself_o a_o corporeal_a substance_n or_o whether_o it_o be_v incorporeal_a if_o you_o say_v that_o it_o be_v a_o corporeal_a substance_n you_o can_v understand_v no_o other_o than_o matter_n more_o subtle_a and_o tenuious_a than_o the_o animal_n spirit_n themselves_o mingle_v with_o they_o and_o disperse_v through_o the_o vessel_n and_o porosity_n of_o the_o body_n for_o there_o can_v be_v no_o penetration_n of_o dimension_n but_o i_o need_v no_o new_a argument_n to_o confute_v this_o fond_a conceit_n for_o what_o i_o say_v of_o the_o animal_n spirit_n before_o be_v

of_o the_o same_o thing_n over_o again_o it_o remain_v therefore_o that_o we_o conclude_v that_o that_o which_o impress_n spontaneous_a motion_n upon_o the_o body_n or_o more_o immediate_o upon_o the_o animal_n spirit_n that_o which_o imagine_v remember_v and_o reason_n be_v a_o immaterial_a substance_n distinct_a from_o the_o body_n which_o use_v the_o animal_n spirit_n and_o the_o brain_n for_o instrument_n in_o such_o and_o such_o operation_n and_o thus_o we_o have_v find_v a_o spirit_n in_o a_o proper_a notion_n and_o signification_n that_o have_v apparent_o these_o faculty_n in_o it_o it_o can_v both_o understand_v and_o move_v corporeal_a matter_n and_o now_o this_o prize_n that_o we_o have_v win_v will_v prove_v for_o our_o design_n in_o this_o new_a method_n of_o physic_n and_o philosophy_n of_o very_o great_a consequence_n for_o it_o be_v obvious_a here_o to_o observe_v that_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n be_v as_o it_o be_v {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o a_o compendious_a statue_n of_o the_o deity_n her_o substance_n be_v a_o solid_a effigies_fw-la of_o god_n and_o therefore_o as_o with_o ease_n we_o consider_v the_o substance_n and_o motion_n of_o the_o vast_a heaven_n on_o a_o little_a sphere_n or_o globe_n so_o we_o may_v with_o like_o facility_n contemplate_v the_o nature_n of_o the_o almighty_a in_o this_o
