will_v be_v a_o kind_n of_o habit_n for_o according_a to_o the_o opinion_n which_o affirm_v that_o elemental_a quality_n do_v not_o flow_v from_o the_o soul_n but_o be_v produce_v of_o other_o

see_v they_o be_v ordain_v only_o for_o operation_n but_o the_o quality_n of_o the_o wood_n do_v essential_o suppose_v these_o power_n and_o do_v help_v they_o efficient_o in_o the_o production_n of_o the_o elemental_a one_o wherefore_o they_o be_v necessary_o habit_n as_o be_v the_o habit_n of_o science_n and_o some_o supernatural_a quality_n as_o the_o habit_n of_o faith_n and_o light_n of_o

these_o quality_n will_v prove_v a_o kind_n of_o those_o which_o cure_v manifest_a disease_n of_o which_o we_o have_v speak_v in_o another_o book_n §_o 9_o both_o conclusion_n be_v confirm_v because_o a_o live_a body_n can_v not_o other_o way_n be_v make_v durable_a to_o eternity_n nor_o for_o any_o time_n but_o its_o temperament_n will_v decline_v something_o from_o its_o integrity_n unless_o it_o

whereby_o it_o will_v have_v be_v make_v free_a from_o all_o natural_a cause_n of_o death_n internal_a and_o external_a because_o a_o help_n by_o this_o kind_n of_o cause_n will_v not_o have_v be_v
