text_original: To this interrogation the knight answered, that he met with great opposition from a spirit of levity and self conceit, which seemed to prevail in this generation, but that no difficulties should discourage him from persevering in his duty; and he trusted in God, that, in a very little time, he should be able to confute and overthrow the false philosophy of the moderns, and to restore the writings of Moses to that pre eminence and veneration which is due to an inspired author.
