main_a discrimination_n betwixt_o the_o spirit_n and_o the_o most_o specious_a complexion_n the_o first_o be_v that_o that_o piety_n or_o goodness_n which_o be_v from_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n be_v

and_o last_o be_v a_o universal_a prudence_n whereby_o a_o man_n admit_v nor_o act_v nothing_o but_o what_o be_v solid_o rational_a at_o the_o bottom_n and_o of_o which_o he_o can_v give_v a_o good_a account_n let_v the_o success_n be_v what_o it_o will_n he_o that_o find_v himself_o thus_o affect_v may_v be_v sure_a it_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n not_o the_o power_n of_o complexion_n or_o nature_n that_o rule_v in_o he_o but_o this_o man_n to_o other_o if_o they_o be_v unbelieving_a and_o so_o rude_a and_o unprepared_a as_o not_o to_o be_v capable_a of_o reason_n he_o be_v nothing_o to_o they_o unless_o he_o can_v do_v a_o miracle_n how_o vain_a then_o be_v the_o enthusiast_n that_o be_v destitute_a of_o both_o but_o those_o ancient_a record_n of_o miracle_n do_v in_o the_o

all_o this_o they_o witness_v no_o other_o thing_n to_o the_o world_n then_o what_o other_o may_v experience_n in_o themselves_o and_o what_o be_v plain_o set_v down_o in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n
