Question. For whose
use this intended?
Answer. For insincere
opponents not: for
sincere, yes
A question But (says somebody) that will naturally be presenting itself to the
men of a for whose use where is it that this designationexamination

a plan
The aggregate mass of possible reader I stand
for the purpose into the sincere and the insincere
