of_o power_n and_o likeness_n to_o a_o spirit_n not_o in_o respect_n of_o substance_n or_o nature_n so_o these_o affection_n of_o pity_n and_o compassion_n do_v work_v not_o only_o in_o his_o spirit_n

that_o they_o be_v not_o capable_a of_o the_o least_o alteration_n tend_v to_o any_o hurt_n what_o ever_o and_o so_o his_o body_n be_v not_o subject_a to_o any_o grief_n nor_o his_o spirit_n to_o
