and_o will_v scarce_o be_v beat_v out_o of_o that_o strong_a illusion_n and_o thus_o the_o world_n come_v to_o be_v fill_v with_o relation_n of_o ghost_n or_o apparition_n he_o know_v that_o some_o by_o strength_n of_o fancy_n will_v imagine_v a_o cluster_n of_o cloud_n to_o be_v a_o army_n of_o man_n engage_v in_o a_o pitch_a battle_n and_o why_o may_v not_o the_o vision_n which_o he_o see_v be_v only_o a_o imaginative_a shape_n nothing_o real_a but_o a_o thing_n frame_v in_o his_o disorder_a mind_n it_o be_v easy_a for_o a_o man_n who_o be_v not_o willing_a to_o believe_v any_o thing_n

since_o i_o know_v and_o have_v hear_v that_o they_o be_v malicious_o bend_v against_o we_o and_o will_v do_v we_o much_o more_o mischief_n than_o they_o do_v if_o they_o be_v not_o limit_v and_o

to_o withstand_v the_o force_n and_o influence_n of_o such_o a_o miracle_n wrought_v in_o order_n to_o his_o conversion_n so_o there_o be_v one_o more_o yet_o remain_v which_o he_o may_v probable_o

a_o ghost_n who_o tell_v they_o that_o if_o they_o continue_v in_o that_o course_n of_o life_n they_o so_o vigorous_o prosecute_v they_o will_v be_v as_o miscrable_a as_o himself_o who_o suffer_v

if_o such_o mean_n of_o conviction_n be_v rational_a and_o powerful_a doubtless_o other_o will_v be_v afford_v they_o as_o well_o as_o he_o but_o since_o he_o hear_v nor_o know_v of_o none_o he_o
