thomas_n smith_n though_o encounter_v such_o a_o under-match_n press_v such_o argument_n and_o insist_v upon_o such_o answer_n as_o may_v have_v give_v satisfaction_n to_o learned_a man_n his_o proceed_n possible_o may_v have_v be_v hold_v pardonable_a but_o his_o reason_n and_o answer_n be_v such_o for_o the_o most_o part_n as_o be_v clear_o unworthy_a of_o a_o man_n of_o his_o repute_n for_o the_o world_n you_o must_v know_v take_v he_o for_o a_o great_a scholar_n and_o he_o himself_o seem_v not_o altogether_o unwilling_a that_o it_o shall_v do_v so_o witness_v that_o impertinent_a passage_n of_o his_o own_o in_o the_o first_o page_n of_o his_o preface_n where_o he_o tell_v you_o he_o have_v be_v august_n 25._o 1659._o all_o the_o afternoon_n at_o st._n john_n coll._n library_n turn_v over_o arabic_a and_o other_o mss_n etc._n etc._n i_o say_v his_o reason_n and_o argument_n be_v so_o much_o unworthy_a of_o a_o man_n of_o that_o esteem_n which_o the_o world_n may_v be_v think_v to_o have_v of_o he_o the_o publication_n he_o have_v make_v of_o the_o action_n and_o that_o with_o such_o a_o height_n of_o triumph_n and_o pretence_n of_o victory_n on_o his_o part_n seem_v not_o a_o little_a ridiculous_a for_o to_o give_v you_o a_o small_a taste_n of_o his_o acuteness_n at_o first_o he_o prove_v there_o be_v three_o person_n in_o the_o b._n trinity_n because_o there_o be_v three_o hees_n now_o this_o argument_n i_o think_v will_v prove_v as_o well_o that_o three_o horse_n be_v three_o person_n for_o they_o be_v three_o hees_n and_o if_o to_o be_v a_o he_o be_v the_o definition_n of_o a_o person_n than_o three_o she_o be_v not_o be_v three_o person_n 2._o second_o he_o will_v prove_v whitehead_n to_o be_v a_o papist_n a_o disguise_a papist_n forsooth_o according_a to_o that_o bedlam-fancy_n which_o pryn_n and_o baxter_n and_o the_o father_n of_o lie_n and_o this_o vain_a man_n with_o the_o rest_n go_v daily_o sow_v in_o the_o head_n of_o such_o people_n as_o they_o find_v apt_a and_o willing_a to_o be_v deceive_v by_o tale_n he_o will_v prove_v i_o say_v that_o whitehead_n be_v a_o papist_n and_o how_o think_v you_o because_o he_o refuse_v to_o take_v the_o oath_n of_o abjuration_n but_o do_v george_n whitehead_n refuse_v the_o oath_n because_o it_o abjure_v popery_n no_o such_o matter_n for_o he_o plain_o and_o present_o upon_o mention_v the_o oath_n to_o he_o profess_v i_o deny_v all_o popery_n which_o although_o it_o do_v not_o satisfy_v t._n s._n who_o be_v not_o ashamed_a to_o reply_v upon_o he_o that_o a_o papist_n will_v say_v so_o too_o yet_o i_o make_v no_o doubt_n but_o it_o will_v satisfy_v any_o indifferent_a man_n till_o t._n s._n bring_v some_o better_a argument_n to_o prove_v whitehead_n be_v a_o papist_n then_o his_o bare_a refuse_v the_o oath_n of_o abjuration_n for_o whitehead_n refuse_v that_o oath_n not_o because_o it_o abjure_v popery_n but_o because_o it_o be_v a_o oath_n and_o because_o he_o think_v it_o unlawful_a to_o swear_v at_o all_o and_o by_o such_o another_o argument_n he_o may_v as_o easy_o if_o he_o have_v please_v have_v prove_v he_o to_o be_v a_o good_a protestant_n for_o if_o instead_o of_o the_o oath_n of_o abjuration_n he_o have_v offer_v he_o the_o oath_n of_o pius_fw-la quartus_fw-la which_o be_v propose_v to_o all_o such_o as_o take_v degree_n in_o the_o popish_a university_n beyond_o sea_n he_o will_v hazard_v to_o have_v refuse_v that_o too_o yea_o the_o argument_n be_v there_o any_o force_n in_o it_o will_v prove_v the_o poor_a
