but we must pause

 
whether they believe it or not.
To which I answer,— 1. It is written,
                                                                                                             1763
not a pleasant one: and
whether they believe it or not
                                                                                                             1783
doing what I have ;
but whether they believe it or not,
it is not the less true
                                                                                                             1804
Those downy doctors,
that recumbent virtues preach,
who will swear any thing,
and subscribe any thing, no matter
whether they believe it or not,
for the
                                                                                                             1809
                  purpose of doing what I have;
but whether they believe it or not,
it is not the less true,
since I have only acted by virtue of
                                                                                                             1820
whether they believe it or not :
That in consequence of
                                                                                                             1831
whether they believe it or not;
otherwise they must be required
to believe a lie
                                                                                                             1836
when they enter the theatre,
whether they believe it or not,
they are on a level with all who herd there
                                                                                                             1839
without evidence, and
which is not true in itself,
whether they believe it or not.
It would be almost endless to take notice
of every absurdity
                                                                                                             1841
and the marrow-men...
whether they believe it or not...
But we must pause for the present
                                                                                                             1849
whether they believe it or not,
they are forced to contribute
                                                                                                             1868
