A97089	A brief answer to the many calumnies of Dr. Henry More, in his pretended Antidote against idolatry. Shewing that no prudent person can, upon any rational ground, be deterr'd from returning to the communion of St. Peter's chair, by any of the doctors best and strongest evidences to the contrary.

that_o the_o doctor_n here_o roll_v the_o same_o stone_n and_o relapse_n into_o the_o same_o error_n which_o be_v reprove_v in_o the_o former_a objection_n as_o build_v upon_o a_o false_a and_o

for_o unless_o we_o grant_v this_o supposition_n it_o will_v not_o follow_v that_o the_o same_o body_n be_v in_o divers_a place_n at_o once_o be_v divide_v from_o itself_o any_o more_o than_o it_o

that_o both_o this_o and_o the_o precedent_a objection_n be_v of_o pernicious_a consequence_n as_o put_v arm_n into_o the_o hand_n of_o infidel_n to_o attempt_v against_o the_o mystery_n of_o the_o ever_o adorable_a trinity_n for_o as_o the_o doctor_n argue_v that_o if_o one_o body_n can_v be_v in_o two_o place_n at_o once_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o the_o say_a body_n be_v double_a to_o itself_o so_o it_o may_v be_v conclude_v with_o '_o great_a plausibility_n by_o the_o antitrinitarian_n that_o if_o one_o and_o the_o same_o divine_a nature_n can_v be_v in_o three_o distinct_a person_n at_o once_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o the_o same_o nature_n will_v be_v treble_a to_o itself_o and_o as_o he_o object_n that_o from_o the_o hypothesis_n of_o one_o body_n be_v in_o divers_a place_n at_o once_o the_o sequel_n will_v be_v that_o the_o same_o body_n will_v be_v divisum_fw-la a_o se_fw-la contrary_a to_o one_o piece_n of_o a_o metaphysical_a principle_n of_o the_o notion_n of_o unum_n be_v indivisum_fw-la a_o se_fw-la so_o may_v the_o antitrinitarian_n object_n with_o a_o more_o close_a logic_n that_o from_o the_o hypothesis_n of_o one_o nature_n be_v in_o three_o distinct_a person_n the_o sequel_n will_v be_v that_o the_o same_o nature_n will_v be_v divisa_fw-la a_o se_fw-la and_o also_o not_o divisa_fw-la ab_fw-la aliis_fw-la because_o real_o identify_v with_o three_o distinct_a person_n which_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o whole_a metaphysical_a principle_n of_o the_o notion_n of_o unum_n be_v indivisum_fw-la a_o se_fw-la &_o divisum_fw-la a_o

of_o christ_n the_o body_n of_o christ_n be_v always_o at_o the_o same_o time_n equal_a to_o itself_o it_o follow_v that_o a_o part_n of_o the_o division_n be_v equal_a to_o the_o whole_a against_o that_o common_a notion_n in_o euclid_n that_o the_o whole_a be_v big_a than_o the_o part_n the_o reader_n may_v please_v to_o take_v notice_n that_o the_o doctor_n here_o give_v we_o his_o own_o

his_o borrow_a principle_n by_o so_o unskilful_a a_o misapplication_n for_o his_o argument_n be_v this_o it_o follow_v from_o the_o council_n doctrine_n that_o a_o part_n of_o the_o division_n be_v equal_a to_o the_o whole_a contrary_a to_o the_o general_o establish_a notion_n of_o the_o mathematics_n that_o the_o whole_a be_v big_a than_o the_o part._n i_o answer_v the_o argument_n be_v mere_a cobweb_n stuff_n half_o a_o eye_n be_v enough_o to_o look_v through_o it_o for_o these_o word_n of_o the_o doctor_n that_o a_o part_n of_o the_o division_n be_v equal_a to_o the_o whole_a either_o refer_v to_o the_o species_n and_o then_o it_o be_v false_a that_o a_o part_n of_o the_o division_n be_v equal_a to_o the_o whole_a or_o they_o point_v at_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n and_o then_o the_o word_n be_v de_fw-fr subjecto_fw-la non_fw-la supponente_fw-la for_o there_o be_v no_o division_n of_o any_o part_n of_o christ_n body_n from_o the_o whole_a his_o four_o objection_n be_v from_o logic_n in_o logic_n say_v the_o doctor_n it_o be_v a_o maxim_n that_o the_o part_n agree_v indeed_o with_o the_o whole_a but_o disagree_v one_o with_o another_o but_o in_o the_o abovesaid_a division_n of_o the_o host_n or_o sacrament_n the_o part_n do_v so_o well_o agree_v that_o they_o be_v entire_o the_o very_a same_o individual_a thing_n and_o whereas_o any_o division_n whether_o

may_v with_o much_o more_o reason_n say_v that_o this_o and_o the_o precedent_a objection_n be_v but_o the_o division_n of_o one_o into_o one_o and_o itself_o for_o this_o be_v the_o same_o in_o effect_n with_o the_o former_a and_o require_v no_o new_a answer_n because_o these_o his_o trifle_a expression_n if_o apply_v to_o the_o separate_a species_n be_v false_a if_o to_o christ_n body_n than_o they_o proceed_v upon_o a_o false_a supposition_n as_o have_v be_v declare_v in_o my_o answer_n to_o the_o three_o objection_n and_o therefore_o logic_n have_v great_a reason_n to_o take_v it_o ill_o at_o the_o doctor_n be_v hand_n for_o make_v her_o instrumental_a to_o such_o a_o illogical_a discourse_n but_o the_o doctor_n distrust_v the_o strength_n of_o his_o logic_n call_v in_o his_o

and_o be_v not_o at_o the_o same_o time_n for_o that_o individual_a thing_n that_o can_v be_v and_o be_v to_o be_v make_v of_o any_o thing_n be_v not_o now_o the_o individual_a body_n of_o christ_n

and_o it_o be_v not_o at_o the_o same_o time_n which_o be_v against_o that_o fundamental_a principle_n in_o logic_n and_o metaphysic_n that_o both_o part_n of_o a_o contradiction_n can_v be_v true_a or_o that_o the_o same_o thing_n can_v both_o be_v and_o not_o be_v at_o once_o thus_o far_o the_o doctor_n in_o his_o own_o expression_n now_o before_o i_o answer_v his_o objection_n there_o be_v two_o or_o three_o particular_n deserve_v a_o cursory_a reflection_n and_o first_o a_o know_a reader_n can_v choose_v but_o smile_v to_o see_v can_v be_v or_o a_o capacity_n of_o be_v bring_v in_o for_o a_o piece_n of_o a_o argument_n to_o prove_v that_o a_o thing_n be_v not_o that_o individual_a thing_n that_o can_v be_v say_v the_o doctor_n and_o be_v to_o be_v make_v of_o any_o thing_n be_v not_o second_o it_o be_v here_o observable_a how_o fond_o the_o doctor_n play_v the_o confident_a dogmatizer_n assert_v as_o evident_a for_o in_o this_o chapter_n he_o profess_o pretend_v to_o evidence_n a_o undeniable_a demonstration_n that_o that_o individual_a thing_n that_o can_v be_v and_o be_v to_o be_v make_v of_o any_o thing_n be_v not_o as_o if_o forsooth_o it_o be_v evident_o demonstrable_a that_o that_o individual_a thing_n which_o be_v to_o day_n actual_o in_o be_v can_v not_o possible_o be_v destroy_v and_o make_v anew_o again_o to_o morrow_n by_o a_o second_o

generation_n for_o if_o this_o be_v absolute_o possible_a it_o will_v be_v false_a to_o day_n to_o utter_v this_o proposition_n that_o individual_a thing_n that_o can_v be_v and_o be_v to_o be_v make_v of_o any_o thing_n be_v not_o and_o be_v not_o this_o rash_o to_o fetter_v god_n omnipotency_n and_o to_o go_v about_o to_o wrest_v a_o power_n out_o of_o his_o almighty_a hand_n which_o he_o may_v have_v for_o any_o thing_n the_o doctor_n know_v to_o the_o contrary_n three_o it_o be_v pity_n to_o observe_v his_o word_n in_o the_o next_o proposition_n the_o individual_a body_n of_o christ_n say_v he_o be_v to_o be_v make_v of_o the_o wafer_n consecrate_v which_o imply_v as_o much_o as_o if_o the_o water_n be_v the_o material_a cause_n of_o christ_n body_n what_o philosopher_n ever_o speak_v thus_o unphilosophical_o yet_o to_o make_v amends_o he_o immediate_o contradict_v himself_o and_o add_v that_o the_o wafer_n be_v turn_v or_o convert_v into_o his_o individual_a body_n which_o be_v a_o much_o different_a thing_n from_o be_v make_v of_o the_o wafer_n but_o the_o particle_n for_o go_v beyond_o wonder_n the_o individual_a body_n of_o christ_n be_v make_v of_o the_o wafer_n consecrate_v mark_v the_o word_n for_o it_o be_v turn_v into_o his_o individual_a body_n which_o be_v a_o piece_n of_o as_o learned_a nonsense_n as_o if_o he_o say_v in_o open_a term_n because_o the_o wafer_n be_v turn_v into_o christ_n body_n by_o a_o total_a conversion_n which_o exclude_v a_o material_a cause_n therefore_o his_o body_n be_v make_v of_o the_o wafer_n by_o generation_n which_o require_v a_o material_a cause_n thus_o unfortunate_a be_v the_o act_n and_o science_n when_o they_o engage_v against_o god_n church_n i_o come_v now_o to_o his_o argument_n transubstantiation_n say_v he_o imply_v that_o the_o same_o thing_n be_v and_o be_v not_o at_o the_o same_o time_n this_o i_o deny_v first_o because_o physics_n have_v render_v it_o probable_a that_o a_o thing_n which_o actual_o be_v may_v be_v reproduced_a without_o lose_v its_o actual_a existence_n and_o if_o we_o shall_v say_v that_o christ_n body_n be_v thus_o reproduced_a in_o the_o sacrament_n it_o will_v not_o follow_v that_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n be_v and_o be_v not_o at_o once_o to_o wit_n before_o the_o consecration_n but_o only_o that_o it_o be_v by_o a_o first_o production_n and_o be_v not_o by_o a_o second_o production_n till_o after_o the_o consecration_n second_o i_o will_v assign_v the_o doctor_n another_o way_n whereby_o to_o evade_v his_o contradiction_n for_o as_o in_o nutrition_n and_o augmentation_n when_o new_a matter_n be_v add_v to_o the_o body_n by_o conversion_n of_o our_o food_n and_o sustenance_n into_o flesh_n the_o soul_n present_o begin_v to_o inform_v this_o new_a matter_n and_o there_o be_v no_o need_n of_o produce_v a_o new_a soul_n which_o be_v not_o before_o but_o only_o the_o soul_n begin_v to_o be_v where_o it_o be_v not_o before_o so_o when_o the_o host_n be_v convert_v into_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n no_o necessity_n enforce_v we_o to_o grant_v the_o production_n of_o a_o new_a body_n which_o be_v not_o before_o but_o only_o that_o the_o body_n begin_v to_o be_v where_o it_o be_v not_o before_o let_v the_o impartial_a reader_n now_o judge_v what_o great_a cause_n the_o doctor_n have_v to_o cry_v victory_n before_o his_o time_n and_o so_o manful_o to_o word_n we_o down_o and_o conclude_v hector-like_a as_o he_o do_v that_o nothing_o can_v be_v more_o full_o and_o entire_o contradictious_a and_o repugnant_a to_o all_o sense_n and_o reason_n to_o all_o indubitable_a principle_n of_o all_o art_n and_o science_n than_o this_o figment_n of_o transubstantiation_n so_o that_o any_o one_o say_v he_o that_o be_v not_o a_o mere_a bigot_n may_v be_v as_o assure_v that_o transubstantiation_n be_v a_o mere_a figment_n or_o enormous_a falsehood_n as_o of_o any_o thing_n else_o in_o the_o whole_a world_n i_o wonder_v whether_o they_o be_v not_o as_o mere_a bigot_n with_o the_o doctor_n whoever_o believe_v the_o mystery_n of_o the_o holy_a trinity_n for_o let_v he_o but_o compare_v the_o mystery_n of_o transubstantiation_n and_o trinity_n together_o and_o then_o he_o shall_v be_v to_o i_o more_o than_o a_o great_a apollo_n if_o he_o can_v show_v that_o there_o be_v
