The true and only way of concord of all the Christian churches the desirableness…

23. We constantly see a numerical difference of substances made by Partible Receptive matter, when yet the informing substance in them all, is One in it self thus variously terminated and operating: so one Vine or Pear Tree hath many Grapes or Pears numerically different; And many leaves and branches and roots; And yet it is one vegetative substance which animateth or actuateth them all; which consisteth not of separated parts: And that Tree which is thus principled, is it self United to the Earth, and radicated in it is a real part of it, as a mans hair is an Accident, (or as some will call it, an Accidental part) of the man, or the feathers of a bird: And consequently the forma arboris or its vegetative spirit, and the forma telluris are not separated, but One. And we have no reason to think that there is not as true an Union between that forma telluris, and the forms or spirits of the sun, stars, or other Globes of the same kind, as there is between the spirits of the Earth and plants. So that while Vegetative Spirits are many by the diversity of Receptive or Terminative matter, (and perhaps other ways to us unknown) yet seem they to be all but One thus diversified, as One soul is in many members.
