1Now remain there two things to be diligently weighed. One is, whither Angels, when they after this sort put on humane bodies, may be called men. I think not. For if we understand humane flesh, which is formed and borne of a reasonable soul, undoubtedly Angels after that manner cannot be said to have humane flesh. What then, will some man say? Were the senses deceived when men saw them? Not so. For the senses judge only outward things, and such things as appear. But what inwardly impelleth or moveth those things which they see, they judge not. That longeth to reason to seek and search out. This also is to be added, that Angels did not continually retain these bodies, because they were not joined unto them, in one and the self same substance: So that an Angel and a body were made one person.
1Nowe remayne there twoo thynges to be diligently wayghed. One is, whither Aungels, when they after this sorte put on humane bodyes, maye bee called men. I thynke not. For if we vnderstande humane fleshe, whiche is formed and borne of a reasonable soule, vndoubtedlye Aungels after that maner cannot be sayd to haue humane fleshe. What then, wyll some man saye? Were the senses deceaued when men sawe them? Not so. For the senses iudge onelye outwarde thinges, and suche thinges as appeare. But what inwardlye impelleth or moueth those thinges which they see, they iudge not. That longeth to reason to seeke and searche out. Thys also is to be added, that Aungels dyd not continually retayne these bodies, bicause they were not ioyned vnto them, in one and the selfe same substaunce: So that an Aungell and a bodye were made one person.
