The arte of logick Plainely taught in the English tongue, according to the best approued authors. Very necessary for all students in any profession, how to defend any argument against all subtill sophisters, and cauelling schismatikes, and how to confute their false syllogismes, and captious arguments. By M. Blundevile.

From the forme or shape of Man.

IT hath been alwaies most firmely, and with one whole con∣sent agreed and beleeued, euen from the beginning of the world, that the true shape of Man is a reasonable Soule, im∣mortall, and capable of euerlasting blessednesse, which Soule God of his goodnesse did breathe into man, to the intent that he should continually serue, honor, and obey him during this mortall life, and after death enioy eternall life: what great madnesse were it then to thinke, that Man hauing obtained at Gods hands so noble a shape, ought not to embrace all noble vertues, and to gouerne all his actions in such godly and vertu∣ous manner, as he may at length attaine to the euerlasting ioy whereunto he was first created and formed?

Logically thus:

Man consisteth of a Soule capable of eternall felicitie: Er∣go, Man ought to loue vertue, whereby he may attaine to that felicitie.
