signification of Coniunctions disiunctiue, such as these bee, vel or eyther, or else, and such like: as eyther it is day, or it is night, whereof the one destroyeth the other: for if the one be, the other can not be: and therefore they can not bee both true: but they may be both false, if there be any mean betwixt the two contraries: as when wee say, This woman is eyther white or blacke, both these are false, if she be browne, which is a meane colour betwixt white and blacke. But the later writers affirme the disiunctiue to bee true, if any one or both of the parts bee true, as thus, Eyther a man is a sensible body, or else a tree is a Substance: and to bee false when both parts bee false, as Eyther a man is true, or God is a lyar.
