1. To the Animal and Sensitive, and this consisted in two things. 1. In the excellent disposition of his Organs. 2. In the enjoyment of convenient Objects.
1. In the excellent disposition of the Organs. His body was formed immediately by God, and so not liable to those defects, which proceed from the weakness of second causes. No blemish, or disease, which are the effects and footsteps of sin, were to be found in him. His health was not a frail inconstant disposition, easily ruined by the jarring elements, but firm and stable. The humours were in a just temperament, to prevent any destemper, which might tend to the dissolution of that excellent frame. Briefly all rhe senses were quick and lively, able to perform with facility, vigour, and delight, their operations.
