at_o present_a to_o follow_v this_o argument_n as_o far_o as_o it_o will_v lead_v i_o it_o suffice_v now_o to_o observe_v that_o this_o hypothesis_n seem_v general_o allude_v to_o in_o the_o sacred_a

mention_v however_o this_o difference_n between_o divine_a prophecy_n and_o diabolical_a enthusiasm_n seem_v to_o have_v be_v general_o agree_v on_o that_o prophecy_n require_v imagination_n but_o

can_v affect_v the_o imagination_n so_o as_o to_o compose_v or_o disorder_n it_o yet_o this_o alone_a be_v sufficient_a for_o disable_n devil_n to_o influence_n it_o if_o their_o power_n be_v

rather_o to_o the_o extraordinary_a interposition_n of_o god_n second_v his_o own_o institution_n but_o why_o shall_v they_o think_v it_o derogatory_n to_o the_o providence_n of_o god_n that_o he_o shall_v make_v use_n of_o the_o power_n himself_o have_v give_v to_o the_o nature_n of_o thing_n or_o why_o shall_v they_o deny_v the_o experience_n of_o so_o many_o heathen_n who_o though_o they_o
