A27428	The folly and unreasonableness of atheism demonstrated from the advantage and pleasure of a religious life, the faculties of humane souls, the structure of animate bodies, & the origin and frame of the world : in eight sermons preached at the lecture founded by ... Robert BOyle, Esquire, in the first year MDCXCII / by Richard Bentley ...	Bentley, Richard, 1662-1742.	1699 (1699)	Wing B1931; ESTC R21357	132,610	286

supply_v we_o with_o that_o invincible_a argument_n against_o themselves_o i_o must_v say_v again_o that_o to_o prefer_v final_a extinction_n before_o a_o happy_a immortality_n do_v declare_v the_o
