or_o a_o apostle_n prophet_n or_o miracle_n except_o god_n contradict_v they_o but_o if_o god_n contradict_v they_o he_o contradict_v his_o own_o word_n or_o revelation_n for_o we_o have_v no_o

his_o other_o sense_n he_o can_v present_v a_o object_n defective_o with_o unmeet_a medium_n distance_n site_z etc._n etc._n in_o this_o case_n he_o do_v not_o give_v we_o a_o false_a sign_n nor_o

necessitate_v he_o also_o to_o trust_v his_o sense_n in_o such_o perception_n and_o in_o nature_n man_n have_v no_o sure_a way_n of_o apprehension_n therefore_o if_o you_o can_v prove_v that_o sense_n

that_o by_o sensation_n perceive_v it_o and_o to_o deny_v this_o be_v to_o deny_v all_o sense_n and_o if_o it_o be_v not_o so_o how_o can_v any_o such_o substance_n be_v know_v when_o it_o can_v
