pollution_n of_o the_o world_n and_o be_v good_a and_o upright_a even_o in_o a_o corrupt_a age_n none_o can_v have_v find_v fault_n with_o they_o nor_o be_v there_o reason_n for_o stranger_n to_o

that_o they_o ascribe_v to_o she_o more_o than_o what_o be_v possible_a if_o we_o look_v upon_o their_o character_n by_o the_o light_n of_o the_o scripture_n for_o they_o make_v her_o impeccable_a at_o least_o they_o say_v as_o be_v show_v above_o that_o she_o never_o actual_o sin_v no_o not_o in_o thought_n and_o that_o she_o derive_v no_o gild_n or_o corruption_n from_o adam_n which_o must_v

against_o the_o law_n of_o her_o mind_n she_o need_v no_o high_a priest_n nor_o sacrifice_n for_o sin_n and_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n will_v be_v apply_v to_o she_o in_o vain_a for_o she_o be_v

as_o well_o as_o many_o other_o which_o follow_v do_v sufficient_o prove_v that_o the_o insallible_a spirit_n of_o god_n have_v not_o guide_v the_o pen_n of_o mounseur_fw-fr de_fw-fr cort_n or_o

be_v exalt_v above_o the_o present_a state_n and_o capacity_n of_o humane_a nature_n lord_n how_o do_v passion_n blind_a man_n how_o do_v their_o affection_n transport_v they_o without_o all_o bound_n of_o sense_n and_o discretion_n but_o it_o will_v perhaps_o be_v reply_v by_o the_o poiretans_n and_o bourignianists_n that_o there_o be_v no_o reason_n against_o matter_n of_o fact_n that_o a_o thing_n may_v be_v true_a though_o it_o be_v strange_a and_o unaccountable_a that_o mademoiselle_fw-fr bourignon_fw-fr be_v a_o extraordinary_a instance_n and_o a_o exception_n from_o the_o general_n state_n of_o mankind_n and_o therefore_o i_o proceed_v further_o to_o show_v first_o that_o the_o thing_n instance_a by_o they_o which_o they_o insist_v most_o upon_o and_o which_o they_o talk_v most_o of_o be_v not_o certain_a proof_n of_o sanctity_n second_o that_o several_a thing_n be_v own_a both_o by_o herself_o and_o they_o which_o be_v very_o inconsistent_a with_o such_o extraordinary_a sanctity_n as_o be_v ascribe_v to_o she_o first_o i_o say_v that_o the_o thing_n instance_a be_v not_o certain_a proof_n of_o sanctity_n by_o certain_a proof_n i_o do_v not_o mean_v strict_a demonstration_n such_o as_o the_o science_n of_o mathematics_n require_v and_o do_v afford_v but_o such_o good_a moral_a assurance_n as_o may_v be_v the_o ground_n of_o a_o reasonable_a belief_n and_o which_o may_v satisfy_v that_o we_o be_v not_o deceive_v and_o impose_v upon_o the_o present_a case_n differ_v very_o much_o from_o that_o of_o judge_v and_o censure_v the_o life_n and_o action_n of_o our_o fellow_n christian_n who_o pretend_v to_o nothing_o extraordinary_a there_o a_o strict_a enquiry_n be_v not_o necessary_a there_o charity_n shall_v bear_v the_o sway_n and_o then_o we_o ought_v to_o believe_v and_o hope_v the_o best_a provide_v we_o do_v not_o destroy_v the_o notion_n of_o good_a and_o evil_a nor_o yet_o recommend_v a_o evil_a action_n out_o of_o a_o excess_n of_o charity_n but_o here_o where_o there_o be_v more_o than_o common_a pretension_n where_o a_o extraordinary_a sanctity_n be_v pretend_v a_o sanctity_n worthy_a to_o be_v observe_v and_o imitate_v a_o sanctity_n which_o be_v think_v sufficient_a to_o make_v the_o person_n worthy_a to_o be_v receive_v as_o a_o prophet_n as_o one_o send_v from_o god_n to_o give_v great_a light_n and_o instruction_n both_o by_o doctrine_n and_o example_n then_o every_o prudent_a person_n ought_v to_o make_v a_o narrow_a enquiry_n and_o to_o judge_v wary_o then_o we_o shall_v ask_v for_o good_a and_o sufficient_a evidence_n and_o without_o it_o we_o have_v all_o reason_n to_o suspend_v our_o belief_n and_o to_o deny_v our_o assent_n now_o i_o do_v ingenuous_o declare_v that_o have_v consider_v serious_o both_o what_o antonia_n bourignon_n write_v of_o herself_o and_o the_o account_n which_o other_o have_v give_v of_o she_o i_o do_v not_o perceive_v any_o singular_a or_o extraordinary_a instance_n of_o sanctity_n beside_o affect_a solitude_n and_o retirement_n her_o celibacy_n and_o resist_v all_o importunity_n to_o marriage_n fast_n watch_n humiliation_n wear_v of_o sackcloth_n a_o

certain_a sign_n of_o true_a and_o solid_a piety_n for_o as_o these_o thing_n may_v and_o do_v sometime_o proceed_v from_o the_o right_a knowledge_n of_o god_n a_o sincere_a love_n to_o he_o and_o a_o serious_a consideration_n of_o our_o own_o nature_n and_o the_o nature_n of_o other_o thing_n so_o they_o may_v be_v and_o often_o be_v only_o the_o effect_n of_o a_o particular_a temper_n and_o constitution_n as_o they_o may_v be_v and_o often_o have_v be_v counterfeit_v by_o person_n in_o the_o gall_n of_o bitterness_n and_o bond_n of_o iniquity_n these_o thing_n make_v a_o great_a show_n which_o both_o surprise_v unthinking_a beholder_n and_o also_o delude_v the_o person_n themselves_o but_o they_o deserve_v not_o to_o be_v admire_v or_o praise_v except_o when_o they_o be_v transact_v
