contrary into a contrary; ſo that (obſerve) corruption and

neration is never but onely in contraries; If therefore to a

well to make that exempt from contraries, which was to be

generable and incorruptible, This fundamental firſt confirmed,
<

it immediately followeth of conſequence, that it is

ble, inalterable, impaſſible, and finally eternal, and a
