they_o most_o easy_o triumph_v over_o their_o enemy_n this_o he_o very_o confident_o affirm_v but_o without_o any_o offer_n at_o a_o proof_n but_o yet_o this_o will_v furnish_v he_o with_o a_o

the_o sole_a condition_n upon_o which_o the_o evidence_n of_o it_o be_v make_v to_o depend_v be_v to_o we_o altogether_o impossible_a to_o be_v know_v and_o this_o alone_a may_v be_v sufficient_a to_o
