will_v necessary_o follow_v that_o it_o be_v never_o create_v five_o i_o take_v this_o for_o another_o ground_n that_o which_o argument_n 5_o argument_n both_o be_v and_o ever_o have_v be_v above_o the_o create_a heaven_n be_v never_o create_v as_o we_o may_v well_o think_v because_o we_o can_v name_v any_o create_a substance_n that_o both_o be_v and_o ever_o be_v above_o the_o create_a heaven_n indeed_o i_o grant_v that_o the_o humane_a nature_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o soul_n of_o the_o faithful_a since_o their_o separation_n be_v now_o as_o create_a being_n above_o the_o create_a heaven_n yet_o we_o can_v say_v they_o have_v ever_o be_v so_o because_o there_o be_v a_o time_n when_o they_o be_v beneath_o the_o create_a heaven_n neither_o can_v it_o be_v say_v of_o any_o create_a
