from The Ecclesiastical History of the English People

Paulinus and Coifi each make different arguments in support of their ideas. Think about a time when you tried to persuade someone to change his or her mind. What arguments did you use? Did you use persuasive techniques, such as emotional appeals? How did that person react? Write a journal entry about this experience.
