The soul also hath the proprieties of the body, common unto it self, not in it own essence, as the body: but in the person of man, who as he consisteth of them both, as being his essential parts, so also he hath in himself really the proprieties of them both: so as he may truly be said to be visible, and invisible: mortal and immortal.
The soule also hath the proprieties of the body, common vnto it selfe, not in it owne essence, as the bodie: but in the person of man, who as he consisteth of them both, as being his essentiall partes, so also he hath in himselfe really the proprieties of them both: so as he may truely be said to be visible, and inuisible: mortall and immortall.
This which is said of the proprieties of the human nature, common with the divine, not ⟨p. 363⟩in the proper essence of it, but in the common person of both the natures; that the same also is to be thought and said of the divine proprieties with the human, we are taught by Vigilius bishop and martyr.
This which is said of the proprieties of the humaine nature, common with the diuine, not ⟨p. 363⟩in the proper essence of it, but in the common person of both the natures; that the same also is to be thought and saide of the diuine proprieties with the humaine, we are taught by Vigilius bishop and martyr.
These things being in very deed thus, it hereupon is to be gathered, what manner of speeches may be thought agreeable to these matters. If a propriety of the flesh, as to suffer, be in some sort common to the deity, then it may in some sort be said of the deity. If it be not in such wise common to the same, as to have it in it self, as in it own essence, nor as an essential part of it self, nor as an accident in the subject: then the deity cannot be said, in it own essence, to be subject to passion.
