in_o our_o former_a answer_n to_o this_o argument_n we_o omit_v the_o proposition_n not_o because_o of_o the_o certainty_n of_o it_o every_o way_n as_o the_o replier_n dream_v but_o until_o we_o may_v

see_v in_o his_o reply_n the_o unlearned_a ungodly_a and_o unconscionable_a pretence_n by_o which_o he_o will_v seem_v to_o defend_v the_o assumption_n when_o in_o deed_n he_o do_v nothing_o else_o but_o cast_v a_o mist_n before_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o simple_a we_o give_v he_o to_o understand_v that_o the_o whole_a argument_n be_v lame_a and_o faulty_a in_o every_o part_n thereof_o the_o proposition_n be_v not_o absolute_o true_a as_o it_o appear_v he_o understand_v it_o by_o his_o defence_n of_o the_o assumption_n the_o assumption_n be_v not_o only_o false_a as_o we_o prove_v in_o our_o former_a answer_n but_o also_o lack_v a_o foot_n whereon_o it_o shall_v go_v if_o it_o be_v perfect_a and_o entire_a for_o whereas_o in_o the_o proposition_n mention_n be_v make_v not_o only_o of_o the_o make_n of_o a_o true_a christian_a but_o also_o of_o a_o company_n so_o gather_v together_o he_o shall_v in_o the_o assumption_n if_o he_o will_v have_v have_v it_o sound_n and_o perfect_a not_o only_o have_v assume_v that_o the_o doctrine_n etc._n etc._n be_v sufficient_a to_o make_v a_o true_a christian_a but_o have_v add_v also_o that_o their_o assembly_n be_v company_n so_o gather_v

notwithstanding_o they_o be_v so_o to_o be_v repute_v as_o if_o there_o be_v no_o such_o addition_n or_o commixture_n we_o answer_v that_o in_o this_o sense_n the_o proposition_n neither_o be_v nor_o
