- Chillingworth (no work cited); impossible (Difficult it is, but not impossible.); serve (I will serve myself of this concession.)[BKG Note: the quotations were not found for these headwords in the 1719, 1727, or the 1742 editions of Chillingworth's works. My suggestion is that SJ recalled the substance of the thoughts he quoted without consulting the texts. An approximate passage that may correspond to the quotation for the headword impossible was found in the Nine Sermons title. The image is provided below.]
