asyntactic (asintaktik)

[ together, A ist at i on [ asystaton ] is a kind of caviling not consisting of any sure ground, as if a man should say that he doth hold his peace or lyeth or knoweth nothing, another by and by might cavil thereof in this sort, Ergo, He that holdeth his peace speaketh, he that lyeth saith truth, he that knoweth nothing knoweth something.
