incontestable_o it_o be_v that_o the_o father_n believe_v the_o three_o divine_a person_n to_o be_v so_o many_o distinct_a spiritual_a substance_n in_o number_n it_o will_v be_v controvert_v by_o no_o body_n that_o they_o be_v also_o in_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o father_n distinct_a mind_n and_o spirit_n second_o but_o as_o i_o say_v the_o beforementioned_a explication_n of_o the_o unity_n of_o god_n or_o how_o the_o three_o divine_a person_n be_v yet_o but_o one_o god_n be_v another_o and_o a_o invincible_a declaration_n that_o they_o hold_v the_o say_v person_n be_v three_o mind_n spirit_n and_o substance_n if_o the_o father_n have_v hold_v that_o the_o three_o person_n be_v but_o one_o only_a numerical_a substance_n one_o infinite_a spirit_n one_o omniscient_a mind_n and_o energy_n and_o that_o they_o be_v call_v person_n only_o because_o the_o one_o numerical_a substance_n subsist_v in_o three_o modes_n that_o be_v after_o three_o several_a manner_n i_o say_v if_o this_o have_v be_v the_o opinion_n of_o the_o father_n the_o question_n will_v not_o have_v be_v how_o the_o three_o person_n can_v be_v but_o one_o god_n but_o how_o they_o can_v be_v call_v hypostasis_n or_o person_n as_o at_o this_o day_n no_o man_n be_v so_o foolish_a as_o to_o charge_v the_o nominal_a trinitarian_n with_o tritheism_n or_o hold_v three_o god_n but_o only_o with_o gotham_n philosophy_n and_o divinity_n in_o call_v modes_n or_o a_o substance_n subsist_v after_o three_o manner_n person_n when_o it_o be_v so_o obvious_a that_o modes_n be_v not_o person_n but_o certain_a affection_n and_o accidental_a denomination_n belong_v to_o person_n the_o father_n will_v never_o have_v trouble_v themselves_o nor_o will_v any_o ever_o have_v object_v it_o to_o they_o or_o demand_v it_o of_o they_o how_o they_o can_v say_v there_o be_v but_o one_o god_n if_o the_o three_o person_n by_o they_o so_o call_v be_v but_o one_o numerical_a substance_n subsist_v three_o manner_n of_o way_n or_o in_o three_o relative_a modes_n all_o the_o question_n as_o i_o say_v will_v have_v be_v what_o they_o mean_v by_o this_o gibberish_n subsist_v in_o three_o modes_n or_o three_o manner_n of_o way_n what_o occasion_n be_v there_o for_o the_o father_n to_o tell_v we_o the_o three_o divine_a person_n may_v be_v call_v one_o god_n because_o the_o son_n and_o spirit_n be_v originate_v from_o the_o

the_o three_o divine_a person_n if_o the_o person_n be_v not_o take_v to_o be_v so_o many_o spirit_n mind_n and_o substance_n but_o only_o a_o threefold_a manner_n of_o subsistence_n of_o the_o same_o numerical_a substance_n mind_n and_o spirit_n i_o omit_v for_o the_o present_a a_o great_a deal_n that_o may_v be_v far_o say_v on_o this_o subject_a because_o when_o the_o nominal_a trinitarian_n have_v call_v till_o they_o be_v hoarse_a weary_a and_o ashamed_a to_o university_n and_o bishop_n to_o espouse_v their_o cause_n and_o to_o censure_v the_o real_a trinitarian_n after_o all_o the_o very_a name_n by_o which_o the_o three_o divine_a person_n be_v call_v a_o father_n his_o son_n a_o holy_a spirit_n distinct_a from_o both_o do_v so_o manifest_o imply_v those_o person_n to_o be_v
