to_o little_a purpose_n that_o which_o make_v he_o so_o untoward_a and_o hard_a to_o be_v wrought_v upon_o be_v the_o fair_a and_o plausible_a insinuation_n of_o the_o manichee_n 1._o that_o they_o

strength_n and_o skill_n labour_v to_o demonstrate_v the_o utility_n of_o believe_v ibid_fw-la and_o how_o requisite_a it_o be_v to_o yield_v to_o authority_n before_o with_o pure_a mind_n we_o can_v discern_v the_o truth_n and_o this_o be_v the_o only_a drift_n and_o scope_n he_o aim_v at_o in_o this_o book_n neither_o meddle_v he_o therein_o with_o any_o of_o the_o manichean_a heresy_n 14._o but_o reserve_v the_o confutation_n &_o conviction_n of_o they_o until_o some_o other_o time_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o very_o close_v up_o thereof_o where_o he_o will_v honoratus_n to_o remember_v

whence_o thus_o i_o argue_v if_o s._n augustin_n in_o this_o book_n dispute_v against_o honoratus_n from_o the_o church_n authority_n as_o the_o last_o resolution_n of_o faith_n then_o have_v he_o

he_o dispute_v not_o from_o the_o church_n authority_n as_o the_o last_o resolution_n of_o faith_n true_a it_o be_v he_o be_v much_o in_o commend_v authority_n &_o set_v forth_o the_o benefit_n of_o

that_o he_o affirm_v be_v this_o that_o in_o his_o time_n there_o be_v more_o christian_n then_o of_o any_o other_o religion_n and_o that_o among_o all_o sect_n of_o christian_n there_o be_v one_o

leave_v to_o demand_v why_o whereas_o saint_n augustine_n say_v christian_n be_v more_o than_o jew_n and_o worshipper_n of_o image_n put_v together_o you_o render_v it_o the_o jew_n and_o gentile_n

if_o you_o take_v it_o in_o the_o latter_a sense_n then_o be_v the_o major_a false_a that_o what_o those_o few_o mention_v in_o scripture_n never_o do_v we_o may_v not_o do_v for_o as_o their_o
