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.

tongue_n for_o the_o profit_n of_o those_o my_o countryman_n that_o be_v not_o learn_v in_o foreign_a tongue_n i_o think_v it_o no_o shame_n nor_o robbery_n to_o borrow_v term_n of_o the_o say_a art_n from_o the_o latin_n aswell_o as_o they_o do_v from_o the_o greek_n and_o special_o such_o term_n as_o can_v be_v apt_o express_v in_o our_o native_a speech_n and_o yet_o therewith_o i_o do_v not_o forget_v plain_o to_o show_v the_o signification_n of_o cuery_n such_o term_n so_o as_o every_o man_n may_v easy_o understand_v what_o each_o term_n signify_v think_v it_o much_o better_a so_o to_o do_v then_o to_o fain_v new_a word_n unproper_a for_o the_o purpose_n as_o some_o of_o late_o have_v do_v and_o as_o my_o mind_n be_v hereby_o to_o please_v the_o unlearned_a that_o be_v desirous_a of_o learning_n have_v both_o good_a wit_n and_o also_o good_a disposition_n with_o aptness_n to_o learn_v so_o my_o hope_n be_v not_o to_o offend_v the_o learned_a who_o i_o be_o sure_o do_v well_o allow_v of_o aristotle_n in_o say_v that_o every_o good_a thing_n the_o more_o common_a it_o be_v the_o better_a it_o be_v neither_o be_v they_o ignorant_a that_o in_o old_a time_n past_a aswell_o the_o greek_n as_o the_o latin_n of_o what_o art_n soever_o they_o write_v each_o one_o write_v the_o same_o for_o the_o most_o part_n in_o his_o own_o vulgar_a speech_n every_o man_n be_v not_o able_a in_o these_o costly_a day_n to_o find_v either_o himself_o or_o his_o child_n at_o the_o university_n who_o if_o god_n not_o withstand_v have_v endue_v with_o a_o lively_a wit_n and_o make_v he_o so_o apt_a to_o learning_n as_o have_v some_o help_n at_o home_n he_o may_v by_o his_o own_o industry_n attain_v unto_o right_a good_a knowledge_n &_o be_v make_v thereby_o the_o more_o able_a to_o glorify_v god_n and_o to_o profit_v his_o country_n true_o i_o see_v no_o cause_n why_o the_o learned_a shall_v disdain_v or_o be_v miscontent_v that_o such_o man_n or_o child_n shall_v be_v free_o teach_v this_o or_o any_o other_o good_a art_n without_o any_o cost_n or_o charge_n wherefore_o arm_v myself_o with_o assure_a hope_n that_o with_o this_o my_o labour_n i_o shall_v great_o profit_v and_o pleasure_v the_o unlearned_a and_o not_o hinder_v or_o displease_v the_o learned_a i_o will_v bold_o follow_v my_o enterprise_n and_o here_o brief_o show_v the_o order_n of_o my_o say_a work_n which_o be_v divide_v into_o six_o part_n or_o book_n for_o since_o logic_n be_v chief_o occupy_v in_o discuss_v of_o question_n and_o that_o such_o question_n both_o simple_a and_o compound_n do_v spring_n of_o word_n the_o first_o part_n of_o my_o book_n shall_v treat_v of_o word_n show_v which_o be_v simple_a which_o be_v compound_v and_o also_o which_o comprehend_v more_o and_o which_o comprehend_v less_o &_o which_o be_v of_o affinity_n and_o which_o be_v not_o leave_v out_o no_o necessary_a rule_n belong_v thereunto_o that_o be_v teach_v either_o by_o aristotle_n or_o by_o any_o other_o modern_a writer_n second_o because_o all_o simple_a question_n consist_v of_o single_a word_n be_v to_o be_v discuss_v by_o definition_n and_o division_n the_o second_o part_n treat_v of_o they_o both_o and_o therewith_o show_v also_o with_o what_o method_n and_o order_n such_o simple_a question_n be_v to_o be_v handle_v three_o because_o all_o compound_n question_n be_v to_o be_v discuss_v by_o reason_v or_o argumentation_n and_o that_o every_o kind_n of_o argument_n do_v consist_v of_o proposition_n the_o three_o part_n treat_v of_o a_o proposition_n and_o of_o all_o thing_n belong_v thereunto_o four_o because_o no_o sound_a argument_n can_v be_v make_v to_o prove_v or_o disprove_v any_o thing_n that_o be_v in_o question_n unless_o the_o disputer_n know_v from_o whence_o to_o fetch_v his_o proof_n the_o four_o part_n of_o my_o book_n treat_v of_o all_o the_o place_n from_o whence_o any_o argument_n be_v to_o be_v fetch_v and_o the_o five_o part_n treat_v of_o argumentation_n and_o of_o all_o the_o kind_n thereof_o teach_v how_o every_o kind_n be_v to_o be_v perform_v the_o six_o and_o last_o part_n treat_v of_o confutation_n show_v how_o all_o sophistical_a argument_n be_v to_o be_v confute_v a_o postscript_n though_o i_o write_v this_o book_n many_o year_n past_a while_o i_o sojourn_v with_o my_o most_o dear_a brother_n in_o law_n m._n

subtle_a sophister_n and_o cavil_v schismatic_n whereof_o in_o these_o day_n the_o more_o be_v the_o pity_n there_o be_v too_o many_o they_o be_v not_o able_a without_o the_o help_n of_o logic_n to_o
