to_o his_o cleave_a foot_n and_o last_o how_o it_o happen_v that_o speak_n of_o the_o devil_n in_o the_o first_o part_n of_o the_o period_n he_o forget_v himself_o in_o the_o second_o &_o speak_v of_o

that_o which_o we_o can_v perform_v want_v freewill_n and_o punish_v we_o for_o fault_n which_o we_o can_v avoid_v but_o first_o he_o do_v not_o so_o much_o as_o offer_v to_o prove_v his_o charge_n

have_v the_o particular_n of_o his_o survey_n to_o pass_v without_o censure_n he_o must_v also_o understand_v that_o albeit_o we_o have_v not_o freewill_n or_o liberium_fw-la arbitrium_fw-la in_o

first_o he_o say_v that_o neither_o reason_n nor_o faith_n nor_o both_o together_o be_v able_a to_o discover_v what_o god_n be_v but_o therein_o he_o discover_v by_o his_o own_o confession_n that_o he_o be_v a_o poor_a surveyor_n of_o religion_n not_o know_v what_o god_n be_v and_o a_o silly_a doctor_n of_o divinity_n if_o he_o deny_v that_o scripture_n teach_v we_o what_o god_n be_v as_o far_o

his_o truth_n the_o second_o proceed_v of_o ignorance_n for_o hardly_o will_v he_o be_v able_a to_o show_v in_o what_o tongue_n philosopher_n call_v the_o world_n alle._n pag._n 648._o he_o bely_v
