our_o church_n who_o you_o vouchsafe_v only_o the_o bare_a title_n of_o churchman_n to_o none_o then_o oppose_v they_o the_o reverend_n dean_n notion_n concern_v the_o trinity_n most_o overlooking_a

which_o any_o mistake_n or_o error_n of_o i_o may_v bring_v to_o myself_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o most_o learned_a father_n of_o the_o church_n if_o i_o aright_o apprehend_v they_o that_o faith_n

subtlety_n which_o the_o schoolman_n have_v introduce_v in_o their_o explication_n of_o they_o and_o this_o i_o have_v choose_v to_o do_v by_o way_n of_o animadversion_n upon_o our_o animadverter_n from_o a_o double_a reason_n first_o in_o relation_n to_o himself_o to_o convince_v he_o if_o possible_a of_o his_o barbarous_a treatment_n of_o a_o worthy_a and_o reverend_a person_n for_o bare_o
