J Do my self the honour to send you this little answer j was oblig'd to write against our antineutonian cavillers.

J am but a man blind of one eye expostulating with stark blind people who deny, there is such Thing as a sun.

J'll be very happy if this conflict with ignorant philosophers may ingratiate my self with such a true philosopher as you are.

J am
