ever_o any_o trinicarian_a or_o man_n of_o common_a sense_n talk_v at_o that_o rate_n but_o as_o if_o he_o be_v afraid_a of_o be_v call_v to_o account_v for_o such_o false_a aspersion_n he_o tell_v we_o afterward_o in_o the_o same_o section_n viz._n but_o it_o be_v say_v a_o person_n be_v not_o a_o mere_a mode_n but_o the_o divine_a substance_n with_o a_o peculiar_a mode_n it_o be_v well_o he_o be_v bring_v at_o last_o to_o make_v a_o true_a representation_n of_o the_o trinitarian_n doctrine_n and_o thereby_o to_o confute_v his_o own_o calumny_n and_o what_o have_v he_o now_o to_o say_v against_o this_o that_o a_o person_n be_v not_o a_o mere_a mode_n but_o the_o divine_a substance_n with_o a_o peculiar_a mode_n he_o say_v that_o if_o each_o person_n be_v the_o divine_a substance_n he_o must_v have_v in_o he_o all_o the_o mode_n a_o admirable_a inference_n if_o person_n be_v divine_a substance_n with_o one_o mode_n then_o he_o be_v divine_a substance_n as_o with_o all_o modes_n if_o this_o be_v not_o to_o speak_v contradiction_n i_o know_v not_o what_o be_v but_o he_o will_v back_v his_o absurd_a inference_n with_o a_o reason_n that_o person_n must_v have_v all_o the_o mode_n because_o he_o be_v the_o divine_a substance_n in_o which_o the_o modes_n subsist_v this_o reason_n be_v just_a like_o the_o former_a as_o if_o person_n who_o be_v the_o divine_a substance_n as_o limit_v with_o one_o mode_n or_o relative_a property_n be_v the_o divine_a substance_n not_o as_o limit_v with_o one_o but_o three_o relative_a modes_n or_o property_n a_o downright_a

mankind_n be_v the_o same_o with_o themselves_o that_o be_v the_o same_o with_o a_o three_o and_o all_o knowledge_n but_o intuitive_a depend_v upon_o the_o truth_n of_o it_o we_o grant_v he_o all_o this_o but_o what_o be_v it_o he_o will_v infer_v it_o be_v this_o that_o if_o three_o person_n and_o one_o person_n first_o second_o and_o three_o be_v the_o same_o with_o god_n they_o be_v the_o

for_o 1._o he_o confound_v three_o person_n and_o one_o as_o if_o they_o be_v the_o very_a same_o 2._o he_o will_v make_v we_o believe_v that_o they_o do_v both_o alike_o agree_v in_o a_o three_o which_o be_v absurd_a and_o false_a because_o that_o notion_n we_o have_v of_o the_o three_o person_n joint_o consider_v be_v adequate_a to_o the_o notion_n we_o have_v of_o god_n because_o the_o divine_a essence_n be_v not_o communicable_a to_o more_o than_o three_o person_n but_o the_o notion_n we_o have_v of_o a_o single_a person_n be_v not_o adequate_a to_o the_o notion_n we_o have_v of_o god_n who_o be_v communicable_a to_o more_o than_o a_o single_a person_n do_v these_o then_o agree_v entire_o in_o a_o three_o when_o this_o three_o have_v itself_o after_o a_o different_a manner_n with_o respect_n to_o they_o it_o can_v be_v so_o that_o the_o argument_n may_v be_v retort_v upon_o himself_o and_o the_o quite_o contrary_a conclusion_n infer_v from_o the_o foresay_a rule_n thus_o if_o one_o person_n and_o three_o person_n do_v not_o agree_v in_o a_o three_o than_o they_o do_v not_o agree_v between_o themselves_o but_o they_o do_v not_o agree_v in_o a_o three_o as_o have_v be_v

each_o as_o to_o the_o phrase_n of_o real_a distinction_n we_o refer_v the_o reader_n to_o what_o have_v be_v say_v upon_o §_o 8._o but_o as_o to_o what_o follow_v we_o say_v that_o although_o god_n
