will_v they_o not_o grant_v i_o this_o that_o by_o a_o certain_a order_n the_o matter_n be_v before_o the_o form_n and_o yet_o precede_v it_o not_o in_o time_n so_o be_v it_o that_o god_n be_v before_o the_o world_n by_o a_o certain_a order_n of_o eternity_n what_o they_o far_o infer_v that_o the_o instant_n be_v the_o end_n of_o time_n past_a and_o the_o beginning_n of_o time_n to_o come_v instant_n of_o the_o point_n as_o instant_n we_o answer_v they_o that_o as_o the_o point_n be_v to_o thing_n continue_v so_o be_v the_o instant_n to_o thing_n succeed_v now_o the_o point_n be_v sometime_o the_o extreme_a of_o one_o part_n of_o a_o line_n and_o the_o beginning_n of_o another_o part_n and_o sometime_o also_o it_o be_v the_o begin_n of_o the_o whole_a line_n and_o not_o the_o end_n of_o any_o part_n precedent_n so_o the_o instant_n and_o moment_n wherein_o the_o world_n have_v be_v be_v the_o beginning_n of_o the_o time_n to_o ensue_v and_o not_o the_o end_n of_o any_o past_a they_o add_v another_o argument_n against_o this_o doctrine_n that_o say_v they_o which_o pass_v on_o have_v something_o both_o before_o and_o after_o it_o but_o i_o will_v proceed_v far_o and_o grant_v they_o more_o to_o wit_n that_o all_o that_o which_o pass_v on_o return_v to_o the_o same_o point_n from_o whence_o it_o begin_v to_o pass_v for_o the_o water_n return_v to_o the_o sea_n from_o whence_o it_o have_v a_o original_n the_o body_n return_v to_o the_o earth_n from_o whence_o it_o be_v borrow_v the_o soul_n god_n all_o thing_n return_v to_o god_n and_o other_o intellectual_a thing_n create_v of_o god_n i_o except_v that_o which_o the_o scripture_n teach_v we_o of_o the_o reprobate_a return_v to_o himself_o of_o who_o they_o be_v engender_v and_o all_o essence_n produce_v from_o the_o divine_a thought_n make_v a_o full_a circle_n beginning_n in_o god_n and_o finish_v in_o god_n himself_o so_o must_v time_n return_v into_o the_o same_o eternity_n whereout_o it_o proceed_v and_o which_o shall_v remain_v this_o same_o cease_v in_o such_o sort_n as_o it_o consist_v before_o it_o and_o therefore_o we_o answer_v those_o who_o demand_v how_o the_o creator_n can_v precede_v the_o fabrication_n of_o the_o world_n that_o he_o proceed_v it_o by_o a_o eternal_a endure_v wherefore_o they_o conclude_v just_a nothing_o against_o the_o creation_n of_o that_o which_o then_o be_v and_o be_v after_o the_o generation_n of_o thing_n other_o which_o reason_n upon_o the_o point_n which_o we_o have_v deliver_v concern_v the_o opinion_n of_o auerrois_n that_o the_o world_n be_v not_o corruptible_a &_o therefore_o not_o engender_v argue_v thus_o that_o which_o be_v dissolve_v into_o another_o thing_n be_v divide_v but_o consider_v that_o beside_o the_o world_n there_o be_v nothing_o into_o which_o it_o can_v be_v dissolve_v it_o must_v therefore_o endure_v everlasting_o to_o which_o we_o may_v answer_v they_o dissolve_v how_o the_o world_n be_v dissolve_v that_o the_o world_n be_v dissolve_v according_a to_o his_o part_n to_o the_o end_n that_o it_o may_v remain_v in_o a_o better_a estate_n but_o now_o we_o dispute_v not_o of_o the_o dissolution_n but_o only_o of_o the_o original_n thereof_o and_o it_o may_v seem_v nothing_o contrary_a to_o christian_a religion_n that_o the_o work_n of_o god_n may_v always_o have_v a_o be_v but_o far_o otherwise_o then_o as_o we_o see_v it_o and_o which_o shall_v be_v then_o when_o we_o most_o bless_a shall_v inhabit_v the_o new_a heaven_n and_o new_a earth_n in_o life_n everlasting_a and_o herein_o do_v we_o concur_v with_o sundry_a great_a philosopher_n who_o esteem_n that_o it_o be_v ill_o do_v to_o suppose_v that_o those_o thing_n which_o immediate_o proceed_v from_o the_o bless_a god_n can_v perish_v and_o therefore_o we_o affirm_v that_o the_o soul_n be_v immortal_a because_o it_o be_v produce_v and_o inspire_v by_o god_n and_o that_o the_o body_n itself_o shall_v obtain_v eternity_n when_o afterward_o in_o the_o resurrection_n it_o shall_v be_v reve_v with_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o soul_n which_o subject_n we_o have_v ample_o discourse_v upon_o in_o the_o second_o part_n of_o our_o academy_n but_o it_o be_v ill-concluded_n to_o take_v away_o all_o beginning_n from_o thing_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o perpetual_a endure_v of_o the_o same_o sphere_n the_o opinion_n of_o diverse_a be_v that_o the_o celestial_a spirit_n moo●e_v the_o sphere_n for_o as_o we_o have_v declare_v it_o be_v to_o argue_v by_o natural_a generation_n of_o the_o divine_a masterpiece_n of_o work_n which_o surpass_v all_o sensible_a consideration_n and_o since_o we_o be_v in_o this_o talk_n of_o the_o endure_a of_o the_o world_n we_o may_v further_o note_v that_o those_o who_o have_v thereupon_o imagine_v to_o take_v away_o the_o original_n thereof_o have_v teach_v that_o the_o spirit_n move_v the_o sphere_n shall_v obtain_v felicity_n in_o the_o eternal_a recourse_n of_o the_o heaven_n which_o point_n aristotle_n enforce_v himself_o to_o demonstrate_v in_o his_o most_o lofty_a part_n of_o philosophy_n where_o repeat_v diverse_a consideration_n more_o lofty_a then_o in_o any_o other_o place_n he_o sharp_o contend_v for_o this_o eternity_n of_o the_o world_n and_o john_n lescot_n seem_v to_o grant_v he_o more_o than_o he_o require_v when_o he_o say_v that_o the_o spirit_n be_v bless_v not_o only_o move_v the_o sphere_n but_o for_o so_o much_o as_o by_o such_o revolution_n serve_v god_n they_o communicate_v perfection_n to_o thing_n here_o beneath_o to_o which_o agree_v that_o which_o plotin_n entreat_v of_o heaven_n and_o of_o the_o soul_n of_o the_o world_n say_v it_o be_v a_o absurd_a thing_n and_o discordant_a to_o suppose_v that_o that_o soul_n which_o do_v for_o a_o time_n contain_v the_o heaven_n shall_v not_o always_o do_v the_o same_o as_o if_o by_o violence_n it_o have_v contain_v it_o and_o thereupon_o he_o conclude_v that_o the_o world_n shall_v endure_v for_o ever_o because_o the_o principal_a part_n of_o the_o soul_n thereof_o can_v be_v dissolve_v nor_o the_o nature_n thereof_o impair_v aristotle_n also_o among_o his_o other_o consideration_n insert_v this_o that_o the_o prince_n of_o this_o worldly_a palace_n be_v eternal_a not_o receive_v any_o vicissitude_n or_o change_v it_o be_v most_o likely_a that_o his_o palace_n shall_v also_o be_v eternal_a and_o that_o his_o minister_n or_o celestial_a spirit_n be_v altogether_o addict_v to_o perpetual_a motion_n shall_v never_o take_v rest_n but_o that_o we_o may_v untie_v this_o knot_n we_o will_v say_v that_o it_o be_v a_o error_n of_o comparison_n to_o argue_v of_o that_o which_o have_v his_o beginning_n immediate_o from_o god_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o creator_n and_o of_o that_o which_o be_v here_o below_o in_o regard_n of_o thing_n above_o and_o of_o the_o immediate_a end_n of_o every_o thing_n in_o comparison_n of_o his_o last_o end_n for_o the_o immediate_a end_n of_o unreasonable_a creature_n be_v to_o live_v thing_n of_o the_o sundry_a end_n of_o all_o thing_n and_o feed_v themselves_o but_o their_o final_a end_n be_v to_o serve_v man_n use_n which_o according_a to_o the_o mind_n of_o sundry_a wiseman_n be_v the_o end_n of_o all_o thing_n here_o below_o and_o the_o immediate_a end_n of_o man_n be_v to_o govern_v his_o house_n and_o family_n or_o the_o commonwealth_n to_o contemplate_v traffic_n and_o such_o like_a business_n but_o his_o late_a end_n be_v to_o attain_v to_o god_n or_o to_o felicity_n be_v it_o as_o one_o will_v say_v through_o a_o stoical_a virtue_n or_o by_o a_o peripatetic_n contemplation_n or_o by_o academic_a purify_n or_o which_o be_v most_o certain_a true_a through_o faith_n and_o grace_n according_a as_o our_o religion_n do_v import_v and_o also_o we_o affirm_v that_o the_o immediate_a end_n of_o the_o spirit_n separate_v from_o god_n and_o of_o the_o corruptible_a matter_n be_v to_o govern_v the_o heaven_n and_o man_n and_o such_o other_o thing_n as_o have_v be_v commit_v to_o their_o charge_n but_o their_o last_o end_n be_v their_o only_a contemplation_n of_o that_o first_o essence_n from_o which_o they_o derive_v their_o felicity_n as_o aristotle_n himself_o testify_v in_o his_o ethic_n suppose_v then_o that_o they_o cease_v to_o move_v &_o from_o their_o immediate_a end_n yet_o shall_v they_o never_o cease_v to_o be_v bless_v no_o more_o than_o man_n shall_v be_v less_o happy_a when_o he_o shall_v cease_v to_o govern_v the_o commonwealth_n or_o to_o perform_v his_o other_o temporal_a business_n and_o certain_o it_o be_v marvelous_a that_o any_o can_v think_v that_o the_o angel_n and_o celestial_a spirit_n shall_v obtain_v their_o happiness_n by_o move_v the_o heaven_n continual_o about_o see_v that_o all_o mooving_n as_o the_o philosopher_n teach_v do_v tend_v to_o a_o rest_v but_o none_o can_v say_v that_o the_o spirit_n shall_v not_o cease_v
