to his referring to G. Fox's Journal and E. Burroughs's Collected Treatises they are large Books and what part of them he quarrels with I know not therefore let him mention particulars and then if I think it worth my while he may perhaps hear farther from me And since he has not Enervated but only Shufled off the state of the Case I laid down in my former I need say no more at present then that it was too much truth to be denied even by G. Keith himself though I 'le say that for him he is a Man very expert in that faculty The Fourth Head viz. His itch to have you the Pious and Learned Dance after his Pipe viz. Challenge Disputes with the Quakers He tells us contains nothing but repeated Recriminations and Reflections against him already answered except in the latter part of it c. Answ As he says already answered though I say only Evaded as the Reader may see if he please to be at the trouble of comparing the one with the other yet what part of it he has already taken some small notice of is already replied to and so I shall follow him to the latter Part which he gives thus They propose it whether it would not be most equal and reasonable for them viz. such to whom I have directed my Expostulation to begin with me by calling me forth to a publick Hearing upon my former Books To this I answer that I am most willing they do and what I cannot justly and safely defend of any passages in my former Books I will fairly retract Answ A very fair Proposal so say and so do and so far we shall be agreed but I am afraid if it were to be put to the Tryal he would draw back for I can tell him of one Passage which I quoted in my former and which for the remarkableness of it I care not if I quote again which he must retract in the first place or else he can never be sincere in retracting the rest viz. I know not any fundamental Principle nor indeed any one Principle of the Christian Faith that I have varied from ever since I came among the Quakers which is about Thirty three Years ago Exact Narrative p. 15. Moreover in this very Sheet now before me he says But whereas they up-braid me again and again with contradicting my former Doctrines and Principles as to Articles of Faith I cannot find that they have proved it against me in one particular To which I answer If he will shut his Eyes and will not see who can help it Or if he will be so Partial in his own Cause as to resolve not to be convinced of it let what Proof will be offered 't is his own fault T. Ellwood whath proved it upon him in three Tracts and that in more than one particular and his not having answered either of them is sufficient ground to continue the Charge upon him taking it for granted that if he could have done it fairly he would or if by any Sophistical Art he could have neatly blinded it he would not have been wanting in his endeavours In the next place in p. 5. He would fain persuade those to whom he directs his Expostulation that 't is most proper to begin with us first because says he whatever just Offence I have given to any of them my late Adversaries of that Gang among the Quakers have far exceeded me Answ That is but his say so whereof himself is no competent Judge And adds he they have that which casts of Ballance as to them that they justifie all they have said and Printed against them to every Tittle to maintain their Infallibility which I have not done but in divers things I confess my mistakes and wherein I have justly offended any I humbly ask their Forgiveness Answ Supposing but not granting what he says to be true have not those he applies himself to the more need to begin with him first that they may take him in the mind while he is in the mind and bring him from lurking in bare Generals to descend to Particulars and so try whether he be sincere in his Protestations by bringing him to a thorow Recantation Whereas if the Case be as he represents it with us they must expect no such compliance from us but a steddy adherence to our Assertions consequently like to be a more tedious as well as a more difficult Work therefore most Prudence to begin with the easiest first especially having to do with a slippery Chapman of whom they can have no assurance that he will long continue in the same Humour though he were at present never so much seemingly resolved to be as good as his word And as to the Flout he throws at the Quakers concerning Infallibility I shall add a passage out of Help in time of need to shew what he formerly Asserted as to the necessity of People's being led by the Infallible Spirit see p. 23. Therefore another Head was set up in the Church then Jesus Christ and the Pope and his Council was made Judge to determine all Controversies in Religion and no Man was to look at an Infallible Judge the Spirit of Truth within him and are ye not become as bad who openly affirm that ye are not led by the infallible Spirit and consequently not by the Spirit of God My Fifth Head viz. His pretended tender Compassion to the Souls of People highly insincere And my Sixth Head viz. The Irregularity of his Proposal of Disturbing our Meetings contrary to Law He joins together as sufficiently answered in his Narrative and Expostulation so that he sees not the least cause to say any thing unto them Answ He has the prettiest faculty of answering Matters beforehand as a Man shall likely hear of he has answered good part of my Book it seems before its self was in Being 't is much he had not answered it all beforehand when his Hand was in yet here still comes in some buts and onlys that spoil his antecedent Answers and if it were not for these buts and onlys he needed have wrote but two or three Words in Answer to the whole Book and have left it so to the Readers Consideration as he doth now He says Only I take notice of the bold untruth he chargeth me with of my proposing the Disturbing of their Meetings Answ The untruth is his not mine as the Words I then quoted will evince to rational Men which I shall again Transcribe viz. Or if they continue to justifie them to refute them openly in the Face of their own Meetings and in the Presence of them that do so much admire and follow them His Reason for promoting this work is And thus to serve them as they have served others and with what Measure they have met to others the same to meet to them again Which he tells us a little before was Some of their Teachers assaulted the National Ministers in the Face of their
A Modest DETECTION OF George Keith's MISCALLED JUST VINDICATION OF HIS Earnest Expostulation PUBLISHED By him as a pretended Answer to a Late Book of Mine Entituled Some Brief Observations c. By E. P. Isa 28. 20. For the Bed is shorter then that a Man can stretch himself on it And the Covering narrower then that he can wrap himself in it LONDON Printed and Sold by T. Sowle near the Meeting-House in White-Hart-Court in Gracious-Street and at the Bible in Leaden-Hall-Street near the Market 1696. A Modest Detection of George Keith 's miscalled Just Vindication of his Earnest Expostulation c. HAD I not by Observation of past Actions known George Keith a little too well I might have been induced to have Thought that the extravagancies of Expressions bitterness of Words and angry Language vented against those whom he calls A Gang or Sort of Quakers were only the product of a suddain angry Fit which in a more serene Temper he would be ashamed of But alas I find if I had so thought I had been mistaken in the Man and consequently my Opinion of him and his malicious Work but too true and that is that his Spleen is so swelled with the Ill-will he bears us that a common venting his Passion wont ease him but as if not only Intoxicated but perfectly Drunk therewith he Vomits out great Floods of Railing Accusations and what is worse still Sucks in more whereby he is so far from coming to his right Mind as that he may be said to be continually inflamed therewith and thereby hindred from seeing the Deformity of it and the inconveniencies it subjects him to whence it is that instead of being ashamed he Vindicates what any Sober Moderate Man I am perswaded cannot read with Approbation I confess his Answering if his deserve that Name my late small Treatise Entituled Some brief Observations upon George Keith 's Earnest Expostulation is no surprize upon me For I did suppose that he who declines answering an Antagonist more considerable in every respect to whom he is Debtor for three Books yet unanswered by him would fall upon me if possible to Nip me in the Bud which is all of a Piece with his answering Caleb Pusey of Pennsilvania who living at so great a distance he might in probability not expect a Reply in hast not knowing 't is like that any Body here would take up the Cudgels against him on behalf of C. Pusey But as I therein consulted not with Flesh and Blood nor entertained any reasonings in my Mind concerning the Arts Parts or Qualifications of the Man or my own meanness or inabilities for such a Work So now I must needs say I do not find his performances in his Reply to mine so considerable as to render the Piece unanswerable but rather what he is pleased to Term mine Trifling Exceptions therefore I shall now betake my self to it In my former I taxed him with fondly imagining that he and he alone amongst the Quakers had monopolized Knowledge and for Proof thereof produced a Paragraph out of a Book Entituled A Modest Account c. p. 28. viz. If you serve George Keith so George Keith will leave you and then ye shall wander about for lack of Knowledge and shall not find it Brief Observations p. 3. This he now tells us p. 1. is a lying Story an abominable Falshood I Answer He knows whence I had it I reserred to Book and Page which is more then he does in some of his Stories therefore I made it not but that it is false we have only his bare Denial now and not so much before in his Answer to the said Book He only says Antichrists and Sadducees p. 8. concerning some Relations C. Pusey gives in his Modest Account Most of which are absolutely False and that little that 's true in any of them is not fairly nor duly related should he not have told us which were and which were not false and how far true how far false However upon the whole it is but his denial against the others Affirmation which Whether the one would be guilty of Forging a lying Story without any ground or the other of denying a real Truth to save his Credit as not being willing to be thought so presumptuously conceited of his own profound Knowledge and so undervaluingly slighting of others must be left to every Reader to judge as he sees occasion and in the mean time he must excuse me if I disbelieve him and tell him in his own Dialect to C. Pusey he hath brought nothing in disproof of it but his own forseited Credit He proceeds And this and the like false Accusations are the best Armour these my Adversaries have to Fight against me Which is a gross Abuse and proofless Assertion and as such I reject it the only Reason of my producing it being as an Instance of his Malice which is one of my Charges upon him under which he is uneasie What I charged upon him Brief Observations p. 4. relating to ' his imposing fond Notions and unscriptural Creeds he will have to be no other then some of the great Fundamentals of the Christian Religion the denial whereof says he I have sufficiently proved them guilty of in the Meeting at Turners-Hall c. I Answer He mistakes the Point I called not those fond Notions which he falsly accused us at Turners-Hall with denying but I 'le tell him where he may find some that I call so viz. in Truth Advanced from p. 17. to p. 30. likewise p. 115 116 117. and from p. 124 to p. 127. besides other places of that Book what they are he has been already told in part in a Book lately Published Entituled Keith against Keith from p. 39 to p. 53. and from p. 93 to p. 100. and so that Labour saved me for the present Then what I call unscriptural Creeds I shall now tell him viz. Articles of Faith not delivered in Scripture Terms imposed as a Boundary Term and Bond of Vnion which unless a Person confess with his Mouth in the hearing of some of his Fellow-members he is not to be owned as a Member of the Church see the last of the Ten Articles and methinks G. Keith should not call this a false Charge for the very ten Articles themselves mentioned Exact Narrative p. 42. are not in Scripture Language though whether right or wrong and wherein I wave at present and how far they were offered to be imposed is known to some and that himself refused to accept of a Confession of Faith drawn up in Scripture Phrase by the Pennsylvanian Friends himself hath acknowledged therefore my Charge stands grounded upon a good Bottom Besides he 's too hasty to take it for granted that what he said and alledged at Turners-Hall was sufficient Proof I may as well tell him his so called Proofs were sufficiently disproved by T. Ellwood in his Answer to the Narrative and shall have more ground for my so saying than
unjust charging me with Malice both with respect to them viz. that Gang of Quakers above mentioned and with respect to such whom I directed my Expostulation unto Answ I wonder he counts any thing at all therein worth noticing I know he hath a good Opinion of his own Doings how Malicious soever and truly I am ready to think reputes but few Books besides his own worth much notice those wrote against him none at all But in Proof of what he calls their unjust charging c. He says nothing to the purpose for after he hath used some circumlocution which I shall take notice of by and by he slips off by the help of his Sophistry and to blind the Matter queries But how doth he prove that I am Malicious to the Pious and Learned in the Church of England or among the Dissenters They and not he nor his Gang are a fit Judge of this Am I Malicious either to the one or the other to tell them I would not have the Papists out-do them in Zeal for the Christian Faith Is it not an evident Argument of my Love to them Answ I had proved how and wherein before if he had but had the honesty to have took notice of it but since by the Legerdemain of these Queries he would cast a Mist before his Readers Eyes I shall state the Case anew He quarrels with the Quakers Prints Book after Book against them at length They answer him He for a while answers them too after a sort but finding their Arguments begin to pinch him his false Coverings wherein he wrapt himself like to be pulled off he drops that Method appoints a Meeting at Turners-Hall Summons some of them thither they perceiving his Craft that 't is only to shift off his Shoulders the Load their Books had laid on by Evading their Answers in Print under the notion of a general answer by word of Mouth refuse to appear and pursue him in the Press thereupon he calls out to the Pious and Learned of the Church of England and Dissenters to employ some of their Time and Labour to refute those vile Errours boldly as he says avowed and publickly broached among a Gang and sort of Quakers What is this this less then calling for their assistance against the Quakers because he finds himself not sufficient of himself to go through with the Cause he hath undertaken and what is the whole from the beginning to the end but a series of Malice against the Quakers The Argument he uses to these Pious and Learned is this I am confident if such Anti-christian Errours and Heresies were but the tenth part so avowedly broached in the City of Rome or any where else in Popish Countries these esteemed Watchmen among them would be more alarmed to oppose them by Word and Writing than most among Protestants do Is not this a Malicious insinuation as if Protestants were more Supine Careless and less zealous for the true Christian Faith than Papists and to what end I pray but to make them as spightful as himself He goes on Which would seem to cast a Reflection on the Protestant Churches if some able Men c. Now here is not only a calling them out awaking them as it were out of a Sleep as if they had been all this while Slumbring regardless what Errours or Heresies crept in but that also under the Pain and Penalty if they did not rouse up of lying under the weight of his Reflection Therefore whether this was an Argument of his Love to them or the contrary I dare leave with the Pious and Learned to determine themselves And now shall resume what I had before skipt to come at this Passage viz. Their Application of that Place in Acts 21. 28. against me is very abusive and shameless The Jews cried Men of Israel help But against what Against Paul and the worthy Name of Christ which he bore Testimony to Did I make any such cry to help against that worthy Name or any true Professors of it by my inviting them to oppose the vile Errours that are contrary to it Answ This is but a begging the Question that his Antagonists are not true Professors of the worthy Name of Christ is but gratis dictum he says it we deny it Affirmanti incumbit probatio he that affirms must prove therein he falls short we say there 's no such danger of any opposition to the worthy Name of Christ by our promoting those Doctrines which he calls vile Errours and insinuates us guilty of so that 't is Men of Straw he Fights against But on the other hand the Application of this Scripture belongs to him on this account Those malicious Jews who opposed the Apostle accused him of that which he was not guilty of upon a false surmize as may be seen in the following Verse and upon that foul mistake stirred up the People against him which how parallel it is with the state of the Case between G. Keith and us is apparently discernable by an intelligent Reader who understands the state of the Controversie between us Nex he endeavours to Evade but not disprove what I urged in relation to his endeavours to stir up Persecution against us but doth it so lamely upon the foot of some idle Excuses in his Expostulation and Narrative that to retaliate him in his own Language I think it not worth the least regarding The Third Head viz. He chargable while a Quaker with what he reflects upon the Quakers for in relation to Disputes he says So far as it contains a false Reflection on me I shall not notice Answ Neither shall I notice his caling it a false Reflection any farther than to tell him 't is but rarely if ever that he is brought to acknowledge any thing to be true that is alledged against him But adds he in so far as it tells a most impudent untruth with respect to the People called Quakers I cannot omit it for whereas I have said that many of their chiefest Teachers have with great boldness provoked such as differed from them to publick Disputes This he denieth to be true Answ His charge of an impudent untruth I retort back upon himself for his Assertion I neither Affirmed nor Denied but left him to prove as my words themselves will plainly manifest see Brief Observations p. 11. thus That the Quakers have with great boldness provoked to Publick Disputes he says indeed but doth not prove it Now pray whose Face has most Brass in it mine for so saying or his for falsly charging me He goes on But the colour they would put upon it is that what they did was to clear themselves and to detect the Abuses put on them as if they had been only on the Defensive part in all publick Oppositions they made in Congregations and elsewhere whereas it is abundantly known they were the first Aggressors c. Answ I won't grant him an Ace but require Proof of all that he says and as
dis-praised as falling short of Papists in Zeal for the Christian Faith and how far this method was like to prove destructive rather than beneficial if practised to the true Protestant Religion I then shewed but he jumps over as indeed he doth most of the most material Points through that whole Treatise from the beginning to the end so that I may truly say he hath not answered it so much as by halves Snapping at this and Snarling at the other but going through little or nothing as he should which how meanly it looks in one of his Qualifications to so pitiful an Antagonist as he renders me I need not determine but shall refer that part to my Reader to think of it as he sees Cause As to what he objects concerning G. Fox the Elder G. Fox the Younger and E. Burroughs he is still in nubibus only a fling and away keeps in bare generals comes to no particulars and therefore not worthy ef notice In my Ninth Head viz. His malice against our Books I charged him with being either grossly insincere in pretending it is far from him to desire the least Sufferings to come upon our Persons or estates or else very Ignorant of the Law in such cases viz. Matters Blasphemous and Heretical which he hath alledged our Books contain which deeply affects both Persons and Estates by Imprisonments Fines and Pillory c. To this saith he I answer 1. Were not by the same Argument they Insincere or Ignorant who have charged not only some of their Brethren but differing from them in Punctilio's of their Church-Government and Womens Meetings as in particular Christopher Taylor his charging William Rogers with high Blasphemy in a Printed Book of his but also in charging with Heresie and Blasphemy many of the Ministry in the Nation reputed Orthodox by Civil Authority Answ His Reflection upon C. Taylor will not do him any kindness for 't is not Paralel with the State of the Case between him and us For C. Taylor dealt with W. Rogers Controversially only in writing and by way of a Religious Reproof and there left it but did not appeal to the Civil Magistrate against him no not at all he was so far from that that he directed it to none but Friends as An Epistle of Caution to them But on the other Hand G. Keith proposed to have the Pious and Learned c. encouraged by the Civil Power to question Friends about Blasphemy Heresie c. which would tend to a Judicial and Civil Tryal and Conviction and so if his attempts could take effect bring them under the danger of the Temporal Laws Again G. Keith says falsly in assigning the difference between W. Rogers and Friends to be a difference only in Punctilio's of Church-Government For had he read the Book and not resolved to close his Eyes he might see that W. Rogers finds fault with our Doctrine Preface p. 32. and Christian Quaker Part 1. p. 69. And therefore in his Second Part treats of Doctrines wherein he opposed his to ours in many particulars Thirdly If nothing of this kind could be offered yet is Recrimination of another no Just Vindication of a Man's self If C. Taylor had been Culpable and done amiss that doth not Justifie G. Keith in doing Evil. And now I think fit to take notice and that once for all of his Unmanly dealing he by way of dislike and reproach mentions in several places of his Vindication G. Fox both Elder and Younger E. Burroughs and C. Taylor who are all Dead two of them I believe before himself went under the name of a Quaker the other two he esteemed as Brethren and seemed to be in Unity with while Living and yet he must now be digging up their Graves I would ask him What hurt they have done him since they were Dead that he cannot let them rest now seeing while Living he had nothing to say against them He goes on to a 2dly But must not their Vile Errours and Heresies be opposed and the Authors of them witnessed against and warning given against them otherwise all that do so must they be reckoned Persecutors and Malicious Answ If he like the work let him go on with it no Body hinders his Printing nor proposes to hinder it Opposition in Meetings by Countenance or Authority from the Civil Magistrate was the thing I found fault with But let me tell him withal it is not his calling this that or the other Errour and Heresie that will make it so and if he call things by their wrong Names on purpose to render a People odious that 's Malice and a degree of Persecution proceeding from a Root of bitterness and if encouraged will not cease 'till it come to Fire and Faggot Rack and Gibbet And if what he wrote above thirty Years ago be worthy of Credit we are not a People deserving such Reflections fe● Help in Time of Need p. 68. And we the People of the Lord whom he hath formed for himself shall shew forth his Praise and the Lord will make it manifest that we are his and that he hath raised us up and put his Spirit in us and that he dwells in and among us to all the Kindreds and Nations of the Earth and they who will not see shall see and be ashamed and confounded for their Envy at the People whom God hath blessed and will bless for ever and ever and no Deceit nor Violence shall prevail against them Now if he dare believe himself had he not better desist from his fruitless and envious Work he is carrying on against us lest himself be confounded I am now come to his Objections against my Tenth and Last Head wherein he endeavours to evade the Proofs I brought to Evince that The Case between our Books and his Pennsylvania Books as stated by him was far different To my alledging ' It was but common Prudence to hide the Bone of Contention which he had prepared to throw in amongst us lest his quarrelsome Books should infect some with the same Spirit of Discord here as his quarrelsome Discourses and Behaviour had infected some there He Answers p. 7. thus 1. Had it not been more honesty in them as well as Christian Prudence to have disowned these gross Errours which I evidently proved against them in Pennsylvania out of their own Letters and Manuscripts as well as by other Proofs then to have hid and cloaked them and excommunicated me for my faithful opposing them Answ That ever those gross Errours he exclaims against were evidently proved against those he accuses I never yet understood from any but himself who is too much a Party to be esteemed an unbyassed Judge in his own Cause how evident or how lame the Proofs were and upon the same bottom is his Charge laid against those he accuseth of Hiding and Cloaking those Errours he hints at but that he was Excommunicated as he Terms it for his faithful opposing them I deny The Words of
accuseth us now or else in 1664 he was guilty of transcendent Presumption in pretending to say as above in the Name Power and Authority of the Living God if it was not so but quite otherwise He concludes thus But though they have not their Souls I am sure they have their Heathenish Anti-christian Principles Answ This in substance is answered already yet because he so often calls us Anti-christs and our Principles Anti-christian I shall not think much of my Pains to give the Reader an account what he once accounted Anti-christianism and then leave it to the impartial to judge how far that affects us Help in time of Need p 22. This is the Anti-christ who denies Christ the Son come thus in the Revelation of himself in the Heart for that coming of Christ in his Bodily Appearance at Jerusalem Anti-christ will not does not deny it being he knows it will never harm his Kingdom so to confess him come providing Christs Kingdom be not set up in the Heart Now upon the whole as he said to the Teachers he directed his Speech to Ibid. p. 33. Ye could be better employed in holding a Plow or digging in a Field or any other honest Occupation then to be deluding poor People So say I he might be better employed in Teaching Scool or any other honest Occupation then in thus Villifying and Abusing an honest People and imposing that upon the World as truth of which he is sure when in the mean time he knows otherwise One thing more though not so very Material I shall take notice of before we part and that is In the management of his Vindication and the Objections he raises against my Brief Observations he sometimes uses the words they and their sometimes he and his as if Synonimous truly if I did not conclude him to be a good Grammarian I might be ready to query whether he took these Pronouns to be all of a Number but since his Schollarship is not to be questioned at all much less in so common a Case as the first parts of the Accidence taught School-Boys it argues confusion in him and want of circumspection both in Penning and Revising and might have been better excused had he been a Novice though a bold one or an Ideot either I have now gone through his Sheet and cannot but here observe to what a pass an ill cause brings a Man though qualified with Arts Parts and Learning That the heat of Controversie the current whereof I must needs tell him hath run against him let him Bolster himself up with what Bull-rushes he pleases should instigate him to pour out so virulent a peice as that Expostulation a plain indication that he is not led by the peaceable Spirit of Christ but a froward angry revengeful Spirit and when laid open and proved plainly upon him by Matter of Fact without stretching or straining Words or Sentences Rather then he will fall under Reproof or seem to be sensible that in his Passion he had over-shot himself by lying still under a tacit acquiescing that he had so done disdaining 't is like that a young Man of so inferiour qualifications should tell him his own must Publish something in Defence of a thing not at all Defensible Which how it is performed whether he hath not done it very slightly without answering or so much as touching some of the most Material Passages I urged against him and whether this my Rejoinder have not answered the whole substance of his so called Just Vindication as it is not so proper for me to determine so I shall again submit to the Learned Pious and Judicious among all sorts of Protestants into whose Hands these Treatises may happen to light Edward Penington THE END BOOKS Printed and Sold by T.
