THEN stood up Mr. Elmar, chaplain to the duke of Suffolk, whom Mr. Moreman took upon him to answer; but Mr. Elmar's allegations so encumbered his respondent, that he desired a day to overlook them, for at that instant he was without a proper answer.

THE prolocutor now called upon Mr. Haddon, dean of Exeter, and a chaplain to the duke of Suffolk, who prosecuted Mr. Elmar's argument. Dr. Watson, who attempted to answer him, was so confounded, that he was not able to explain sufficiently the word Mysterium (Mystery). But as he seemed to doubt therein, Mr. Haddon took out of his bosom a Latin author, to confirm what he had advanced, and, showing the same to Dr. Watson, asked him, whether he thought that translation to be a just one, or that the printer were in fault: to which Watson replied, there may be a fault in the printer, for I am not remembered of this word. Then Mr Haddon took out of his bosom a Greek book, wherein he pointed to the same word, which Mr. Watson could not deny. The further arguments that were made use of, we shall omit declaring, because they were mostly in Greek, as were those also of Mr. Elmar's.
