therefore_o that_o man_n will_v not_o believe_v this_o truth_n especial_o consider_v it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o the_o remembrance_n of_o their_o end_n and_o the_o shortness_n of_o their_o

perpetual_o that_o all_o man_n both_o good_a and_o bad_a shall_v remain_v and_o be_v perpetual_o 1._o the_o one_o by_o our_o unition_n with_o god_n which_o be_v perfect_a felicity_n 2._o the_o other_o in_o our_o separation_n from_o god_n which_o be_v the_o extreme_a misery_n and_o see_v the_o soul_n of_o man_n be_v immortal_a and_o do_v natural_o affect_v eternity_n as_o not_o only_a divinity_n

life_n and_o those_o incredulous_a heretic_n both_o of_o the_o former_a time_n and_o of_o this_o present_a age_n which_o against_o their_o conscience_n do_v withstand_v this_o truth_n shall_v notwithstanding_o be_v perpetual_a either_o in_o their_o union_n with_o god_n or_o in_o their_o separation_n from_o god_n and_o as_o it_o be_v the_o great_a comfort_n of_o a_o christian_a man_n to_o

for_o ever_o and_o ever_o in_o torment_n separate_v from_o god_n and_o therefore_o the_o error_n be_v not_o that_o man_n do_v seek_v for_o perpetuity_n which_o they_o shall_v be_v sure_a to_o have_v but_o that_o they_o seek_v the_o same_o amiss_o late_a the_o twofold_a error_n of_o man_n in_o seek_v perpetuity_n 1._o seeck_v it_o too_o late_a either_o not_o that_o which_o be_v with_o their_o
