therefore_o he_o swear_v beyond_o the_o sphere_n of_o his_o knowledge_n and_o howsoever_o it_o be_v material_o true_a yet_o it_o be_v formal_o false_a in_o he_o who_o swear_v at_o random_n and_o

i_o be_v the_o sole_a author_n of_o the_o narrative_a of_o my_o captivity_n oat_n have_v more_o reason_n to_o believe_v it_o false_a than_o otherwise_o and_o beside_o the_o account_n of_o my_o

to_o doubt_v whether_o ever_o i_o be_v in_o barbary_n or_o not_o so_o that_o oat_n by_o swear_v positive_o that_o i_o be_v carry_v a_o slave_n into_o barbary_n have_v swear_v to_o the_o truth_n of_o that_o which_o he_o can_v not_o be_v certain_a of_o and_o which_o he_o have_v much_o more_o reason_n to_o believe_v to_o be_v false_a 2._o as_o to_o the_o second_o particular_a that_o there_o viz._n in_o barbary_n it_o be_v general_o and_o credible_o report_v that_o i_o be_v circumcise_a this_o oath_n be_v also_o rash_a and_o therefore_o false_a and_o be_v liable_a to_o be_v prove_v so_o by_o
