  26. non idem sensus ex isto sermone aocouaers indicatur, qui Oraois vel
  27. Gentilibus auctoribus ostenditur, quum de Incorporea Natura à Philosophis
  28. disputatur. In hoc enim Libello. Incorporeum Daemonium dixit, pro eo
  29. quod ipse ille quicunque est habitus vel circumscriptio Daemonici Corpo-
  30. ris, non est similis huic nostro crassiori, vel visibili corpori: sed secun-
  31. dum sensum ejus qui composuit illam scripturam, intellisendum est quod
  32. dixit; non esse tale Corpus quale habent Daemones, quod est naturaliter
  33. subtile, ex velut Aura Tenué; es propter hoc vel imputatur à multis vel
  34. dicitur incorporeum; sed habere se corpus solidum et Palpabile. Zhe
  35. vord aocpaeror, or Incorporeal, is not to be taken here, in that sense
  36. wberein it is used, by the Creck and Gentile Writers, when they Philoso-
  37. phised concernine the Incorporeal Nature. But a Demon is here said 1o
  38. be incorporeal, becanse of the Disposition of the Demoniack Body, not like
  39. 10 ihis Crossand Visible Body of ours. Sorhat the senseis, as is Christ
  40. Mould have said, Thave not such a Body as the Demonshave, which is
  41. naturally subtle, Thin and Soft, as the air, and therefore is either sup-
  42. Posed to be by many, or at least called incorporeal, but the Body Which
  43. nom have, is solid and Paspable. Where we sec plainly chac Angels
