or_o not_o four_o what_o be_v the_o end_n of_o it_o whether_o speculation_n or_o praxis_fw-la it_o remain_v now_o that_o i_o proceed_v to_o the_o second_o and_o particular_a part_n of_o that_o definition_n that_o this_o doctrine_n be_v of_o man_n happiness_n that_o this_o same_o thing_n may_v be_v express_v in_o other_o equipollent_a term_n i_o touch_v before_o and_o mean_v not_o to_o trouble_v myself_o or_o you_o with_o unnecessary_a scruple_n in_o that_o kind_n whether_o you_o listen_v to_o speak_v as_o i_o have_v do_v or_o like_v better_o to_o call_v it_o a_o doctrine_n of_o live_v well_o with_o ramus_n or_o a_o doctrine_n guide_v man_n to_o his_o happiness_n or_o such_o like_a the_o sense_n be_v the_o same_o the_o term_n be_v indifferent_a but_o thus_o much_o i_o wish_v to_o be_v observe_v in_o the_o word_n first_o that_o i_o call_v it_o happiness_n rather_o than_o salvation_n because_o this_o latter_a word_n in_o the_o common_a acception_n there_o of_o imply_v and_o presuppose_v a_o state_n of_o evil_a and_o misery_n from_o which_o man_n be_v to_o be_v save_v which_o be_v not_o general_a enough_o for_o our_o purpose_n be_v but_o one_o parcel_n of_o that_o divinity_n doctrine_n as_o it_o be_v usual_o and_o right_o handle_v of_o all_o and_o as_o you_o shall_v perceive_v by_o that_o short_a declination_n of_o the_o part_n which_o i_o shall_v make_v the_o next_o time_n second_o i_o rather_o mention_v happiness_n in_o general_a then_o eternal_a happiness_n as_o the_o most_o either_o express_v or_o understand_v it_o for_o the_o same_o reason_n because_o though_o that_o be_v the_o high_a and_o last_o and_o principal_a to_o which_o all_o other_o thing_n in_o divinity_n be_v in_o their_o kind_n subordinate_a yet_o it_o be_v not_o all_o for_o both_o adam_n in_o the_o state_n of_o integrity_n have_v actual_a felicity_n and_o shall_v still_o have_v have_v so_o long_o as_o he_o continue_v in_o integrity_n &_o so_o have_v the_o child_n of_o god_n in_o the_o state_n of_o regeneration_n though_o they_o be_v translate_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n and_o glorify_v though_o this_o be_v of_o a_o low_a rank_n and_o order_n then_o that_o other_o so_o that_o eternal_a happiness_n be_v too_o narrow_a for_o the_o general_a end_n of_o this_o art_n except_o perhaps_o it_o be_v widen_v two_o way_n either_o first_o by_o extend_v the_o signification_n of_o the_o word_n eternal_a happiness_n which_o be_v ordinary_o take_v for_o that_o estate_n which_o abide_v with_o the_o child_n of_o god_n in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n because_o that_o be_v to_o endure_v without_o alteration_n and_o change_n to_o all_o eternity_n so_o that_o it_o may_v take_v that_o happiness_n of_o this_o life_n along_o with_o it_o both_o together_o make_v but_o one_o context_n of_o eternal_a happiness_n or_o second_o by_o change_v the_o whole_a phrase_n deliver_v the_o sense_n in_o these_o or_o the_o like_a term_n that_o it_o be_v a_o doctrine_n teach_v to_o live_v well_o here_o that_o we_o may_v live_v happy_o hereafter_o and_o that_o to_o all_o perpetuity_n which_o will_v come_v to_o the_o same_o effect_n thus_o much_o you_o may_v observe_v for_o the_o word_n second_o under_o the_o word_n happiness_n i_o comprehend_v both_o the_o end_n itself_o to_o which_o that_o word_n be_v in_o a_o manner_n appropriate_v and_o all_o those_o mean_n that_o lead_v unto_o it_o which_o be_v either_o those_o gracious_a act_n of_o god_n such_o as_o be_v redemption_n vocation_n justification_n sanctification_n &_o the_o rest_n or_o those_o pious_a act_n of_o man_n which_o be_v necessary_a for_o the_o obtain_n thereof_o especial_o those_o that_o direct_o and_o immediate_o have_v god_n for_o their_o object_n be_v his_o proper_a worship_n and_o service_n whether_o these_o action_n have_v a_o relation_n of_o efficiency_n to_o that_o happiness_n under_o which_o notion_n we_o conceive_v of_o mean_n ordinary_o and_o perhaps_o not_o amiss_o in_o this_o case_n if_o we_o speak_v of_o happiness_n as_o it_o signify_v that_o future_a estate_n of_o glory_n or_o whether_o rather_o those_o action_n be_v part_n of_o it_o or_o happiness_n itself_o which_o respect_n seem_v to_o agree_v better_o to_o it_o as_o it_o be_v take_v general_o for_o the_o whole_a end_n of_o man_n and_o make_v the_o adequate_a subject_n of_o this_o art_n because_o as_o you_o know_v the_o philosopher_n define_v felicity_n to_o consist_v in_o the_o operation_n according_a to_o virtue_n and_o according_a to_o this_o explication_n of_o the_o word_n you_o may_v easy_o discern_v that_o those_o opinion_n will_v not_o stand_v in_o opposition_n one_o to_o the_o other_o one_o of_o which_o say_v that_o man_n operation_n be_v the_o subject_n of_o this_o doctrine_n as_o durand_n do_v express_v it_o in_o these_o word_n actus_fw-la meritorius_fw-la say_v he_o in_o their_o popish_a language_n be_v the_o subject_n of_o divinity_n and_o better_a actus_fw-la humanus_fw-la ordinabilis_fw-la in_o beatitudinem_fw-la as_o arminius_n also_o in_o his_o private_a disputation_n make_v actio_fw-la hominis_fw-la quam_fw-la deo_fw-la praestare_fw-la tenetur_fw-la and_o in_o word_n religio_fw-la which_o be_v the_o same_o with_o the_o former_a only_o it_o omit_v the_o reference_n that_o those_o action_n have_v to_o the_o end_n happiness_n which_o notwithstanding_o the_o same_o author_n add_v express_o in_o his_o definition_n of_o theology_n but_o the_o other_o make_v happiness_n the_o subject_n of_o this_o doctrine_n which_o have_v no_o repugnancy_n to_o the_o former_a as_o i_o say_v but_o include_v it_o as_o subordinate_a and_o thus_o i_o judge_v it_o to_o suit_v better_a than_o the_o other_o for_o these_o two_o reason_n first_o because_o actus_fw-la religionis_fw-la be_v not_o large_a enough_o for_o the_o whole_a latitude_n of_o theological_a precept_n for_o there_o be_v some_o as_o i_o note_v of_o the_o act_n of_o god_n which_o be_v necessary_a to_o make_v man_n happy_a it_o be_v as_o impossible_a in_o ordinary_a course_n that_o man_n shall_v be_v reduce_v to_o his_o perfection_n his_o happiness_n without_o the_o culture_n of_o god_n grace_n as_o it_o be_v that_o other_o inferior_a creature_n shall_v be_v reduce_v to_o their_o perfection_n their_o last_o end_n without_o intervention_n of_o man_n care_n there_o be_v the_o like_a proportion_n in_o the_o dependence_n of_o other_o creature_n upon_o man_n to_o be_v manage_v by_o he_o that_o there_o be_v of_o man_n upon_o god_n to_o be_v manage_v by_o he_o and_o something_o more_o second_o the_o act_n of_o religion_n may_v be_v reduce_v to_o happiness_n by_o a_o more_o direct_a attribution_n then_o happiness_n can_v be_v reduce_v to_o they_o and_o therefore_o see_v both_o be_v contain_v and_o it_o be_v not_o needful_a to_o express_v both_o i_o make_v choice_n as_o near_o as_o i_o can_v of_o the_o fit_a and_o so_o much_o also_o of_o the_o signification_n of_o these_o word_n three_o therefore_o to_o dispatch_v the_o explication_n of_o this_o latter_a part_n of_o this_o definition_n and_o show_v how_o these_o word_n of_o man_n happiness_n contain_v the_o specialty_n of_o divinity_n they_o may_v sustain_v a_o threefold_a relation_n first_o of_o the_o subject_n because_o this_o doctrine_n be_v conversant_a about_o the_o nature_n and_o affection_n and_o part_n of_o happiness_n second_o of_o the_o form_n because_o art_n be_v distinguish_v by_o their_o object_n the_o form_n be_v always_o include_v in_o they_o three_o of_o the_o end_n which_o indeed_o be_v primary_o either_o of_o the_o artificer_n or_o rather_o of_o the_o subject_n and_o so_o secondary_o may_v be_v consider_v as_o of_o the_o art_n itself_o the_o first_o therefore_o of_o the_o subject_n be_v the_o most_o principal_a and_o essential_a relation_n as_o you_o see_v and_o require_v a_o little_o further_a illustration_n that_o be_v the_o subject_n of_o a_o science_n or_o art_n say_v gregory_n de_fw-fr valentia_n which_o be_v the_o subject_n of_o those_o conclusion_n as_o he_o call_v they_o or_o precept_n that_o be_v principal_o intend_v in_o that_o science_n and_o
