be_v we_o must_v first_o know_v what_o truth_n be_v and_o what_o be_v the_o be_v what_o truth_n be_v use_n of_o speech_n truth_n be_v considerable_a 1._o as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o thing_n know_v and_o speak_v of_o 2._o as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o conception_n or_o knowledge_n of_o the_o mind_n 3._o as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o expression_n of_o the_o tongue_n 1._o truth_n veritat_fw-la vid._n aquin._n

be_v this_o be_v that_o which_o be_v call_v both_o physical_a and_o metaphysical_a truth_n 2._o truth_n in_o the_o conception_n or_o knowledge_n of_o the_o mind_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o agreement_n or_o conformity_n of_o the_o knowledge_n to_o the_o thing_n know_v to_o conceive_v of_o it_o true_o be_v to_o conceive_v of_o it_o as_o it_o be_v mistake_v or_o error_n be_v contrary_a to_o this_o truth_n 3._o truth_n as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o expression_n be_v indeed_o a_o twofold_a relation_n 1._o the_o primary_n relation_n be_v of_o our_o word_n or_o writing_n to_o the_o matter_n express_v and_o so_o truth_n of_o speech_n be_v nothing_o but_o the_o agreeableness_n of_o our_o word_n to_o the_o thing_n express_v when_o we_o speak_v of_o they_o as_o they_o be_v 2._o the_o secondary_a relation_n of_o our_o word_n be_v to_o the_o mind_n of_o the_o speaker_n for_o the_o natural_a use_n of_o the_o tongue_n be_v to_o express_v the_o mind_n as_o well_o as_o the_o matter_n and_o thus_o truth_n of_o speech_n be_v nothing_o but_o the_o agreeableness_n of_o our_o word_n to_o our_o thought_n or_o judgement_n truth_n as_o it_o be_v the_o agreement_n of_o thought_n or_o word_n to_o the_o matter_n may_v be_v call_v logical_a truth_n and_o this_o be_v but_o the_o common_a matter_n of_o moral_a or_o ethical_a truth_n which_o may_v be_v ●ound_v partly_o in_o a_o clock_n or_o watch_n or_o weathercock_n or_o a_o seaman_n chart._n the_o agreement_n of_o our_o word_n to_o our_o mind_n be_v the_o more_o proper_a or_o special_a matter_n of_o moral_a truth_n the_o form_n of_o it_o as_o a_o moral_a virtue_n be_v its_o agreement_n to_o the_o law_n of_o the_o god_n of_o truth_n and_o as_o the_o terminus_n enter_v the_o definition_n of_o relation_n so_o our_o word_n

mind_n concern_v it_o therefore_o it_o be_v necessary_a to_o the_o logical_a truth_n of_o speech_n that_o it_o have_v a_o aptitude_n right_o to_o inform_v the_o hearer_n and_o to_o the_o ethical_a

then_o that_o to_o a_o moral_a truth_n all_o these_o thing_n be_v necessary_a 1._o that_o it_o be_v a_o agreement_n of_o the_o word_n with_o the_o matter_n express_v as_o far_o as_o we_o be_v oblige_v to_o know_v the_o matter_n 2._o that_o it_o be_v a_o agreement_n of_o the_o word_n with_o the_o speaker_n mind_n or_o judgement_n 3._o that_o the_o expression_n have_v a_o aptitude_n to_o inform_v the_o hearer_n of_o both_o the_o former_a truth_n 4._o that_o we_o real_o intend_v they_o to_o inform_v he_o of_o the_o truth_n so_o far_o as_o we_o speak_v it_o 5._o that_o it_o be_v agreeable_a to_o the_o law_n of_o god_n which_o be_v the_o rule_n of_o duty_n and_o discoverer_n of_o sin_n §_o 3._o in_o some_o speech_n the_o truth_n of_o our_o word_n as_o agree_v to_o the_o matter_n and_o to_o the_o mind_n be_v all_o one_o viz._n when_o our_o own_o conception_n or_o judgement_n of_o a_o thing_n be_v all_o that_o we_o assert_v as_o when_o we_o say_v i_o think_v or_o i_o believe_v or_o i_o judge_v that_o such_o a_o thing_n be_v so_o here_o it_o be_v no_o whit_n necessary_a to_o the_o truth_n of_o my_o word_n that_o the_o thing_n be_v so_o as_o i_o think_v it_o to_o be_v for_o i_o affirm_v it_o not_o to_o be_v so_o but_o that_o indeed_o i_o think_v as_o i_o say_v i_o think_v but_o that_o our_o word_n and_o mind_n agree_v be_v always_o and_o inseparable_o necessary_a to_o all_o moral_a truth_n §_o 4._o we_o be_v not_o bind_v to_o make_v know_v all_o that_o be_v true_a for_o then_o no_o man_n must_v keep_v a_o secret_a truth_n how_o far_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o speak_v the_o

which_o i_o know_v his_o weakness_n will_v misunderstand_v but_o i_o must_v speak_v no_o falsehood_n to_o he_o also_o there_o be_v a_o great_a difference_n between_o speak_v so_o as_o not_o to_o cure_v the_o ignorance_n or_o error_n of_o the_o hearer_n which_o i_o find_v he_o in_o and_o so_o speak_v as_o to_o lead_v he_o into_o some_o new_a error_n i_o may_v do_v the_o former_a in_o many_o

of_o word_n which_o in_o common_a use_n of_o man_n have_v another_o signification_n than_o that_o which_o i_o use_v they_o to_o by_o the_o former_a way_n the_o hearer_n sometime_o be_v the_o deceiver_n of_o himself_o and_o not_o the_o speaker_n when_o the_o speaker_n be_v not_o bind_v to_o reveal_v any_o more_o to_o he_o but_o by_o the_o late_a way_n the_o speaker_n be_v the_o deceiver_n also_o there_o be_v great_a difference_n to_o be_v make_v between_o my_o speak_n to_o one_o to_o who_o it_o be_v my_o duty_n to_o reveal_v the_o truth_n and_o my_o speak_n to_o a_o man_n to_o who_o
