be_v inexhaustible_a storehouse_n of_o relic_n though_o these_o supposition_n be_v true_a they_o can_v not_o justify_v the_o practice_n of_o those_o who_o pick_v up_o every_o bone_n they_o meet_v with_o in_o a_o catacomb_n and_o mere_o because_o they_o find_v it_o there_o conclude_v that_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v rank_v among_o those_o thing_n call_v relic_n but_o this_o consideration_n will_v

it_o be_v a_o general_a rule_n that_o admit_v of_o no_o exception_n that_o every_o man_n that_o expect_v to_o be_v believe_v must_v prove_v what_o he_o affirm_v it_o be_v plain_a then_o that_o they_o who_o maintain_v so_o positive_o that_o the_o catacomb_n be_v make_v by_o christian_n for_o their_o own_o peculiar_a use_n aught_o to_o demonstrate_v the_o truth_n of_o their_o assertion_n this_o they_o have_v not_o do_v and_o therefore_o i_o may_v just_o reject_v their_o opinion_n without_o be_v at_o the_o charge_n of_o a_o argument_n to_o confute_v it_o yet_o by_o way_n of_o supererogation_n and_o out_o of_o complaisance_n to_o you_o i_o shall_v subjoin_v some_o consideration_n which_o will_v very_o much_o weaken_v if_o not_o entire_o destroy_v their_o hypothesis_n 1._o the_o first_o

history_n see_v the_o chapter_n that_o treat_v of_o funeral_n ceremony_n 2._o i_o be_o not_o ignorant_a that_o the_o christian_n be_v wont_a to_o imitate_v the_o heathen_n on_o many_o occasion_n but_o the_o word_n fata_fw-la diis_fw-la manibus_fw-la domus_fw-la aeternae_fw-la and_o several_a other_o such_o like_a expression_n that_o be_v often_o find_v in_o the_o epitaph_n on_o these_o tomb_n be_v so_o peculiar_a to_o the_o heathen_n that_o it_o be_v not_o conceivable_a they_o be_v ever_o use_v by_o christian_n i_o may_v if_o it_o be_v necessary_a confirm_v my_o opinion_n by_o the_o authority_n of_o no_o less_o famous_a a_o antiquary_n than_o mr._n spon_o for_o you_o may_v observe_v in_o the_o collection_n of_o ancient_a inscription_n with_o which_o he_o have_v enrich_v the_o account_n of_o his_o voyage_n to_o greece_n that_o he_o can_v not_o be_v persuade_v to_o believe_v that_o the_o epitaph_n on_o a_o tomb_n at_o thebes_n which_o they_o assure_v he_o be_v st._n luke_n sepulchre_n be_v

more_o positive_o to_o this_o purpose_n when_o he_o refute_v the_o common_a opinion_n concern_v the_o pretend_a tomb_n of_o a_o saint_n near_o valentia_n he_o say_v express_o that_o the_o word_n aethera_fw-la and_o superis_fw-la mention_v in_o the_o inscription_n be_v in_o his_o opinion_n sufficient_a argument_n to_o prove_v that_o it_o be_v the_o tomb_n of_o a_o heathen_a and_o subjoin_v this_o maxim_n that_o the_o style_n of_o epitaph_n ought_v to_o be_v distinguish_v from_o that_o of_o poesy_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o liberty_n claim_v by_o poet_n of_o all_o religion_n whereas_o he_o assure_v we_o that_o he_o have_v always_o discover_v evident_a mark_n of_o the_o piety_n and_o simplicity_n of_o the_o primitive_a church_n in_o the_o inscription_n on_o ancient_a tomb_n what_o
