among_o the_o jesuit_n to_o abuse_v those_o they_o never_o see_v in_o their_o life_n he_o add_v that_o his_o physiognomy_n in_o a_o pamphlet_n be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o index_n to_o all_o villainy_n

scandalize_v by_o such_o enemy_n to_o truth_n as_o the_o vindicator_n because_o such_o disciple_n of_o artemidorus_n as_o the_o bishop_n of_o st._n omers_n shoot_v their_o fool_n bolt_n at_o random_n against_o a_o young_a scholar_n face_n a_o excellent_a reward_n for_o a_o proselyte_n that_o come_v to_o be_v admit_v into_o their_o foppish_a religion_n but_o to_o return_v your_o bishop_n

quoth_v he_o doctor_n of_o divinity_n and_o say_v he_o commence_v doctor_n at_o salamanca_n which_o can_v be_v first_o for_o he_o never_o be_v at_o salamanca_n to_o which_o the_o doctor_n answer_v that_o it_o may_v be_v for_o first_o he_o be_v at_o salamanca_n now_o whether_o the_o doctor_n argument_n be_v not_o as_o good_a as_o the_o vindicator_n i_o leave_v to_o any_o ordinary_a logician_n nay_o it_o be_v more_o probable_a that_o the_o doctor_n shall_v know_v whether_o he_o be_v at_o salamanca_n or_o no_o than_o a_o man_n that_o never_o see_v he_o in_o his_o life_n second_o none_o but_o

a_o very_a great_a error_n for_o that_o father_n landayada_n when_o he_o be_v only_o a_o clericus_fw-la minor_n be_v make_v a_o doctor_n and_o that_o he_o be_v not_o make_v a_o priest_n till_o some_o

the_o archbishop_n of_o tuam_fw-la how_o the_o doctor_n write_v to_o he_o for_o holy_a order_n which_o the_o bishop_n deny_v he_o because_o of_o the_o ill_a character_n he_o hear_v of_o his_o life_n and_o manner_n who_o do_v this_o vindicator_n write_v to_o certain_o not_o to_o the_o protestant_n and_o than_o what_o do_v his_o vindication_n signify_v here_o be_v a_o irish_a priest_n that_o
