Jones also feels with all the aciiteness of G . W . the discord of the sound , and has still sweeter notes , by which he drowns the harsh music of the orthodox : so sweet are they that , while they prove , as
fully as I have done , Mr . Wakefield ' s want of skill in this art , they almost persuade me to listen to them . Biitjt is sometimes wise to deny attention to Syren songs , for they may prove dangerous . ' — Dr . Middleton , forced to be doubtful , in which he differs from Mr , Jones , has ears fitted for any
sounds , as it would appear * yet , though np £ shocked at God ' s own bloody he / thinking very truly , that the Father , or the firs , t person of God , oas not blood , demurely finds

thing less can be meant , if this text can prove the divinity of Christ * for he only that shed his
blood has any claim to the title of God 9 rov 6 spv ,- * th \ s I could not have divined , but by the assistance of Dr . Middleton , who is , indeed , a JDactor Dubitantium * for
nothing stops him . He hies over brook and over bray , with chivalrous intrepidity , at least on such a subject , and I doubt not of his arriving at the end at which he is aiming * Yet , Dr . Middleton must
be allowed a , n impartial reporter of the state of this text , and I must beg leave to refer the reader to him , at least for the present , and till Griesbach ' s note shall appear in your publication .
I must pause at this place , because I have too much to say tP render it convenient either to me to send , or to you to insert , ^ t present , all the animadversions suggested b y almost every part of Mr . Jones ' s
paper . When I trouble you again , I shall speak first to the - < 3 Eihiopic version , ftnd to the Arabic , which Mr . Jones has brought in as a vy it ness , though , without extracting from it auy evidence . I shall afterwards
remark on positions that appear to me to be very temerarious ; although I by qo m ^ ans intend to give here a syllabus ; of the contents of the remaindejr of my com . munication , bpjt merely to stimulate tHe curiosity of your readers . As Mr . Jones has not wi thholden
