First sentence: WHAT ever is the Innocence and Infelicity of the present state, we cannot, without affronting the Divine Goodness, deny, but that at first we were made wise and happy; For nothing of specifick imperfection or deformity could come from the hands that were directed by an Almighty Wisdome; so that, whatever disorders have since befallen them, all things were at first disposal by an Omniscient Intellect that cannot contrive incptly; and our selves exactly formed according to the Idaa's of that Mind, which frames things consonantly to the Rules of their respective Natures.
