at_o if_o the_o method_n of_o explain_v this_o appear_v unusual_a and_o strange_a since_o the_o subject_n itself_o and_o the_o question_n here_o treat_v of_o have_v perhaps_o so_o little_o enter_v into_o consideration_n and_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o so_o nice_a and_o dangerous_a speculation_n but_o to_o begin_v therefore_o according_a to_o the_o best_a of_o our_o reason_n the_o judgement_n of_o which_o be_v submit_v to_o other_o in_o the_o whole_a of_o thing_n or_o in_o the_o universe_n either_o every_o thing_n be_v according_a to_o a_o good_a order_n and_o the_o most_o agreeable_a to_o a_o

the_o best_a by_o be_v in_o the_o wise_a and_o just_a manner_n then_o be_v there_o of_o necessity_n no_o such_o thing_n as_o real_a ill_n in_o the_o universe_n nothing_o ill_a with_o respect_n to_o
