creature_n and_o which_o astronomer_n hold_v to_o be_v one_o hundred_o and_o sixty_o time_n big_a than_o the_o whole_a earth_n 2._o the_o sun_n be_v never_o without_o light_v the_o earth_n as_o the_o atheist_n themselves_o grant_v who_o say_v that_o the_o world_n have_v be_v from_o all_o eternity_n in_o the_o same_o be_v and_o case_n it_o be_v now_o but_o the_o sun_n have_v not_o lighten_v the_o earth_n from_o all_o eternity_n therefore_o the_o sun_n have_v not_o be_v from_o all_o eternity_n the_o assumption_n or_o second_o proposition_n be_v demonstrate_v thus_o if_o the_o sun_n have_v enlighten_v the_o earth_n from_o all_o eternity_n either_o it_o have_v enlighten_v from_o all_o eternity_n our_o hemisphere_n only_o or_o that_o of_o our_o antipode_n only_o or_o both_o now_o the_o sun_n have_v not_o enlighten_v from_o all_o eternity_n our_o hemisphere_n only_o nor_o that_o of_o our_o antipode_n only_o nor_o both_o which_o be_v prove_v thus_o if_o the_o sun_n from_o all_o eternity_n have_v lighten_v our_o hemisphere_n only_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o hemisphere_n of_o our_o antipode_n have_v not_o be_v lighten_v by_o the_o sun_n from_o all_o eternity_n though_o there_o have_v be_v want_v but_o very_o few_o hour_n see_v the_o sun_n have_v lighten_v our_o hemisphere_n go_v and_o enlighten_v that_o of_o our_o antipode_n some_o few_o hour_n after_o just_o so_o if_o the_o sun_n have_v enlighten_v from_o all_o eternity_n the_o hemisphere_n of_o our_o antipode_n only_o it_o follow_v that_o our_o hemisphere_n have_v not_o be_v lighten_v by_o the_o sun_n from_o all_o eternity_n though_o notwithstanding_o there_o have_v be_v want_v but_o a_o very_a few_o hour_n see_v the_o sun_n have_v lighten_v the_o hemisphere_n of_o our_o antipode_n come_v and_o enlighten_v we_o some_o few_o hour_n after_o now_o be_v there_o ever_o a_o man_n so_o void_a of_o reason_n and_o understanding_n to_o believe_v that_o betwixt_o that_o which_o be_v from_o all_o eternity_n and_o that_o which_o be_v not_o from_o all_o eternity_n the_o difference_n be_v only_o of_o few_o hour_n and_o that_o there_o be_v but_o half_a a_o day_n distance_n betwixt_o that_o which_o be_v finite_a and_o that_o which_o be_v infinite_a time_n and_o eternity_n final_o if_o both_o the_o hemisphere_n have_v be_v enlighten_v by_o the_o sun_n from_o all_o eternity_n either_o it_o be_v all_o at_o once_o or_o one_o after_o another_o not_o all_o at_o once_o else_o it_o will_v have_v be_v day_n every_o where_o at_o once_o and_o the_o sun_n will_v have_v be_v in_o two_o place_n at_o the_o same_o time_n which_o be_v impossible_a nor_o one_o after_o another_o because_o that_o which_o have_v be_v lighten_v from_o all_o eternity_n can_v have_v be_v lighten_v after_o another_o nothing_o have_v be_v before_o that_o which_o be_v from_o all_o eternity_n but_o atheist_n do_v hold_v that_o our_o hemisphere_n have_v be_v enlighten_v from_o all_o eternity_n then_o our_o hemisphere_n have_v not_o be_v lighten_v after_o another_o and_o so_o consequent_o not_o after_o that_o of_o our_o antipode_n they_o hold_v also_o that_o the_o hemisphere_n of_o our_o antipode_n have_v be_v lighten_v from_o all_o eternity_n than_o it_o have_v not_o be_v enlighten_v after_o another_o and_o consequent_o not_o after_o our_o hemisphere_n from_o whence_o one_o may_v infallible_o conclude_v that_o both_o the_o hemisphere_n have_v not_o be_v lighten_v from_o all_o eternity_n one_o after_o another_o final_o two_o eternal_a thing_n can_v be_v but_o together_o and_o consequent_o one_o can_v be_v after_o another_o there_o be_v nothing_o before_o that_o which_o be_v eternal_a therefore_o if_o the_o two_o illumination_n to_o wit_n that_o of_o we_o and_o that_o of_o our_o antipode_n hemisphere_n have_v be_v eternal_a they_o necessary_o must_v have_v be_v together_o and_o not_o one_o after_o another_o which_o be_v impossible_a as_o above_o i_o have_v prove_v i_o conclude_v then_o that_o the_o sun_n not_o have_v enlighten_v our_o hemisphere_n from_o all_o eternity_n only_o nor_o that_o of_o our_o antipode_n only_o nor_o both_o either_o at_o once_o or_o one_o after_o another_o that_o the_o sun_n i_o say_v have_v by_o no_o mean_n enlighten_v the_o earth_n from_o all_o eternity_n and_o see_v that_o the_o sun_n as_o atheist_n themselves_o say_v never_o be_v without_o lightning_n the_o earth_n it_o follow_v that_o illumination_n not_o be_v from_o all_o eternity_n the_o sun_n also_o be_v not_o from_o all_o eternity_n but_o have_v have_v a_o beginning_n and_o have_v not_o that_o beginning_n of_o itself_o see_v nothing_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o itself_o it_o follow_v that_o another_o have_v give_v it_o a_o beginning_n and_o consequent_o have_v create_v it_o now_o the_o creator_n of_o the_o sun_n and_o god_n be_v the_o same_o as_o to_o that_o as_o be_v object_v by_o atheist_n concern_v the_o eternal_a collection_n of_o all_o illumination_n or_o their_o eternal_a succession_n shall_v be_v full_o confute_v hereafter_o in_o our_o reply_v to_o their_o answer_n 3._o the_o same_o reason_n that_o prove_v that_o the_o sun_n have_v not_o be_v from_o all_o eternity_n prove_v also_o that_o the_o earth_n have_v not_o be_v from_o all_o eternity_n thus_o the_o earth_n as_o atheist_n say_v never_o be_v without_o be_v enlighten_v by_o the_o sun_n now_o i_o have_v show_v already_o that_o the_o earth_n have_v not_o be_v enlighten_v by_o the_o sun_n from_o all_o eternity_n therefore_o it_o have_v not_o be_v from_o all_o eternity_n if_o you_o observe_v the_o last_o parenthesis_n you_o will_v see_v that_o this_o argument_n be_v form_v from_o the_o atheist_n own_o doctrine_n for_o shall_v i_o reason_v according_a to_o holy_a scripture_n which_o be_v infallible_a the_o very_a first_o verse_n of_o genesis_n will_v prove_v to_o they_o that_o the_o earth_n be_v create_v before_o the_o sun_n and_o consequent_o be_v not_o always_o enlighten_v by_o the_o sun_n 4._o the_o same_o reason_n may_v also_o be_v confirm_v thus_o either_o there_o have_v be_v some_o day_n from_o all_o eternity_n or_o not_o if_o not_o it_o follow_v that_o all_o day_n have_v have_v a_o beginning_n and_o therefore_o that_o the_o day_n have_v not_o be_v from_o all_o eternity_n if_o the_o day_n have_v not_o be_v from_o all_o eternity_n neither_o the_o sun_n have_v be_v from_o all_o eternity_n see_v the_o sun_n never_o be_v without_o light_n and_o day_n if_o there_o have_v be_v some_o day_n from_o all_o eternity_n either_o there_o have_v be_v one_o only_a or_o many_o if_o one_o only_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o all_o other_o day_n have_v have_v a_o beginning_n and_o that_o there_o want_v but_o one_o day_n to_o the_o eternity_n of_o the_o second_o day_n which_o be_v most_o absurd_a see_v betwixt_o that_o which_o be_v finite_a and_o that_o which_o be_v infinite_a betwixt_o time_n and_o eternity_n betwixt_o that_o which_o have_v have_v a_o beginning_n and_o that_o which_o never_o have_v a_o beginning_n there_o be_v more_o than_o a_o day_n distance_n if_o there_o have_v be_v many_o day_n from_o all_o eternity_n either_o it_o be_v all_o at_o once_o which_o be_v repugnant_a to_o the_o common_a sense_n see_v day_n succeed_v one_o the_o other_o or_o one_o after_o another_o which_o be_v repugnant_a to_o eternity_n for_o that_o which_o be_v from_o all_o eternity_n and_o without_o beginning_n be_v not_o after_o another_o as_o i_o have_v prove_v already_o 5._o this_o reason_n may_v be_v confirm_v again_o thus_o when_o two_o man_n have_v be_v at_o some_o place_n suppose_v a_o town_n or_o city_n they_o must_v needs_o have_v be_v there_o either_o at_o the_o same_o time_n or_o one_o after_o another_o so_o see_v that_o day_n and_o night_n have_v be_v in_o our_o hemisphere_n they_o must_v needs_o have_v be_v in_o it_o either_o at_o the_o same_o time_n and_o at_o once_o or_o one_o after_o another_o not_o at_o the_o same_o time_n and_o at_o once_o else_o it_o will_v have_v be_v day_n and_o night_n in_o the_o same_o place_n at_o once_o which_o be_v impossible_a not_o also_o one_o after_o another_o for_o it_o will_v have_v be_v the_o day_n after_o the_o night_n or_o the_o night_n after_o the_o day_n if_o the_o day_n have_v be_v after_o the_o night_n it_o follow_v that_o it_o have_v not_o be_v from_o all_o eternity_n see_v that_o which_o be_v eternal_a be_v not_o after_o another_o and_o moreover_o there_o will_v have_v be_v very_o little_o want_v to_o the_o eternity_n of_o the_o day_n see_v the_o day_n be_v few_o hour_n after_o night_n which_o be_v say_v to_o be_v eternal_a by_o atheist_n if_o the_o night_n have_v be_v after_o the_o day_n it_o follow_v that_o it_o have_v not_o be_v from_o all_o eternity_n that_o be_v in_o our_o hemisphere_n see_v that_o which_o be_v eternal_a be_v not_o after_o another_o and_o moreover_o there_o will_v have_v be_v very_o
