be_v neither_o original_o propagate_v into_o the_o body_n by_o the_o soul_n nor_o into_o the_o soul_n by_o the_o body_n but_o by_o our_o impure_a natural_a generation_n into_o both_o which_o be_v

antecedent_o immediate_o present_a as_o can_v never_o be_v contradict_v but_o the_o consequent_a involve_v here_o also_o a_o most_o horrid_a contradiction_n see_v so_o christ_n manhood_n shall_v
