certain_a condition_n all_o sound_a man_n sense_n and_o intellect_n be_v infallible_a v._o certainty_n of_o evidence_n consist_v in_o such_o a_o position_n of_o the_o thing_n evident_a as_o make_v

some_o soon_o and_o some_o late_a know_v and_o some_o of_o they_o be_v more_o common_o know_v than_o other_o ix_o the_o self_n evidence_n of_o these_o principle_n arise_v from_o the_o very_a nature_n of_o the_o intellect_n which_o incline_v to_o truth_n and_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o will_n which_o essential_o incline_v to_o good_a and_o the_o nature_n and_o posture_n of_o the_o object_n which_o

about_o those_o same_o object_n but_o by_o miracle_n and_o therefore_o the_o papist_n deny_v and_o renounce_v all_o these_o sense_n imagination_n and_o intellective_a perception_n when_o they_o say_v that_o there_o be_v no_o bread_n nor_o wine_n in_o the_o sacrament_n do_v make_v their_o pretend_a contrary_a faith_n impossible_a for_o we_o be_v man_n before_o we_o be_v christian_n and_o we_o have_v sense_n and_o intellect_n before_o we_o have_v faith_n and_o as_o there_o be_v no_o christianity_n but_o on_o supposition_n of_o humanity_n so_o there_o be_v no_o faith_n but_o on_o supposition_n of_o sense_n and_o understanding_n how_o know_v you_o that_o here_o be_v no_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v it_o because_o scripture_n or_o council_n say_v so_o how_o know_v you_o that_o

not_o there_o you_o will_v say_v that_o sense_n may_v be_v fallible_a in_o one_o case_n and_o not_o in_o other_o i_o answer_v either_o you_o prove_v it_o infallible_a from_o nature_n even_o by_o

but_o if_o you_o know_v the_o certainty_n of_o sense_n by_o sense_n and_o intellective_a perception_n then_o where_o there_o be_v the_o same_o evidence_n and_o perception_n there_o be_v the_o same_o

and_o perceive_v they_o to_o be_v bread_n and_o wine_n so_o that_o here_o be_v as_o full_a evidence_n as_o the_o word_n which_o you_o read_v or_o hear_v can_v have_v to_o ascertain_v we_o obj._n but_o if_o god_n deny_v sense_n in_o this_o case_n and_o not_o in_o other_o we_o must_v believe_v sense_n in_o other_o and_o not_o in_o this_o ans_fw-fr but_o again_o i_o ask_v you_o how_o you_o know_v that_o god_n bid_v or_o forbid_v you_o any_o thing_n if_o sense_n be_v not_o first_o to_o be_v believe_v obj._n but_o be_v it_o not_o possible_a for_o sense_n to_o be_v deceive_v can_v god_n do_v it_o ans_fw-fr 1._o it_o be_v possible_a for_o sense_n to_o be_v annihilate_v and_o make_v no_o sense_n and_o it_o be_v possible_a that_o the_o faculty_n or_o organ_n or_o medium_fw-la or_o object_n be_v

and_o kill_v they_o that_o will_v not_o do_v it_o and_o what_o be_v it_o that_o must_v persuade_v we_o to_o all_o this_o why_o mere_o a_o hoc_fw-la est_fw-la corpus_fw-la meum_fw-la as_o expound_v

for_o if_o it_o have_v so_o than_o the_o evidence_n must_v be_v say_v to_o have_v so_o because_o it_o be_v denominate_v respective_o from_o the_o apprehensive_a certainty_n and_o here_o de_fw-fr

man_n on_o earth_n have_v a_o perfect_a intellectual_a apprehension_n at_o least_o of_o thing_n moral_a and_o spiritual_a for_o his_o apprehension_n may_v be_v still_o increase_v and_o those_o in_o

with_o the_o great_a doubt_v be_v yet_o often_o true_a apprehension_n and_o whenever_o they_o be_v true_a they_o be_v infallible_a that_o be_v not_o deceive_v therefore_o this_o infallibility_n which_o be_v but_o not_o to_o be_v deceive_v be_v indeed_o one_o sort_n of_o certainty_n which_o be_v so_o denominate_v relative_o from_o the_o natural_a truth_n or_o certainty_n of_o the_o object_n but_o it_o be_v not_o this_o sort_n of_o certainty_n which_o we_o inquire_v after_o 6._o therefore_o it_o follow_v that_o this_o subjective_a certainty_n contain_v this_o infallible_a truth_n of_o perception_n and_o add_v a_o degree_n which_o consist_v in_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o the_o mind_n 7._o but_o if_o the_o mind_n shall_v be_v never_o so_o confident_a and_o satisfy_v of_o a_o
