 6 1|       desire you would clear this point.~HYL. Hold, Philonous, I
 7 1|          I may be positive in the point. A very violent and painful
 8 1|           FIRE?~PHIL. To make the point still clearer; tell me whether,
 9 1|          am content to yield this point, and acknowledge that heat
10 1|         they at all belong to the point in dispute. You may, indeed,

22 1|           If it comes to that the point will soon be decided. What
23 1|           reflect a little on the point, and then tell me whether
24 1|     Philonous, now I consider the point, I do not find I can give
25 1|         And, after all, this very point which you are now resolved
26 1|        should be any doubt on the point? Do. you not perfectly know

39 3|   confident you would give up the point, without gathering the votes.~
40 3|           make you comprehend the point still more clearly if it
41 3|           think you have made the point very clear, little suspecting
