a_o angel_n we_o suffer_v many_o gradual_a change_n in_o our_o body_n and_o soul_n but_o god_n can_v raise_v we_o in_o a_o moment_n if_o he_o please_v to_o the_o high_a pitch_v of_o grace_n or_o

you_o see_v reason_n to_o consider_v of_o the_o angel_n not_o as_o inspiration_n motion_n fancy_n or_o phantasm_n but_o as_o of_o real_a substance_n and_o existence_n mighty_a spirit_n that_o in_o the_o frame_n of_o the_o world_n and_o order_n of_o nature_n come_v near_o god_n and_o possess_v the_o next_o place_n to_o he_o for_o so_o they_o be_v and_o as_o such_o be_v the_o immediate_a

than_o you_o destroy_v the_o devil_n than_o you_o oppose_v christ_n enemy_n i_o beseech_v you_o let_v we_o do_v it_o under_o this_o head_n do_v i_o not_o hate_v they_o that_o hate_v thou_o say_v david_n christ_n have_v many_o enemy_n which_o shall_v be_v all_o hateful_a to_o we_o but_o he_o have_v none_o like_o the_o devil_n as_o i_o have_v show_v you_o therefore_o he_o come_v to_o destroy_v
