convincement at first but then immediately and on the contrary derides John Pennyman and Mary his Wife for her Farrendine Gown and Sattin Bodice Thus he lays about him like a mad-man The Author has vext him and he wrecks his fury upon M. Pennyman We may see what a kind of Gentleman he is a true Knight would have spared a Woman that gave him no offence and not have stript her to her Bodice and exposed her in the open streets with her Name and Crime in her forehead but all this is sutable to a Peer of G. Fox's Kingdom XXII But as for J. Pennyman he is one who for many years has had his Soul vext by seeing and hearing the things complained of by our Author and such like insomuch that he has often bore Testimony against them and therefore they conclude him of the same spirit with the Author which was sufficient to entitle him to all the reproach they could cast upon him which dealing of theirs with their shameful covering or denying the matters objected and bold challenge to make them good fell out to the advantage of our Authors Letter for thereupon May 30 1673 J. Pennyman went to the Quakers Meeting in Grace-Church-street and there openly declares that though he was wholly ignorant of either the writing or printing of the Spirit of the Hat yet knowing many of the matters therein inserted to be true he was willing to give John Osgood who knew them as well as himself and others a private meeting to manifest the same and also many other matters of as high concern and of as great wickedness which saith he for about these thirteen years my self with several others in those dayes bore a faithful Testimony against The next day W. Pen J. Osgood J. Claypool and W. Brend came to his house and demanded of him to give them a particular charge * They would not grant John Whitehouse a coppy of his charge which John Boulton and others had drawn up against him which he soon drew up and sent to W. Pen containing twenty four particulars many of which are intimated in these Papers The 23d against George Fox discovers his hypocrisie and dawbing which we publish not as W. P. doth any base Insinuation that may make his adversary obnoxious to the Government To which W. Pen according to his wonted modesty replyes that they wondred to see so empty an Account after so great a charge publickly exhibited that they had agreed among themselves that before they proceeded to a meeting be should let them know if this were all be intended to insist upon and if the issue of that Tryal should be the decision of the controversy between them they would not have their charge piece-meal with more to that purpose To which J. P. returns that he had done enough at present Thus these great Champions evade the answering of this fair Challenge And now though our Author's name doth not appear yet we have that which gives more vallidity to his Work the publick attestation of a credible person personally given For names to Books have been not seldom forged and who knows whether W. Pen will publickly attest to all those Pamphlets and things in them that are printed with his name If he will then let him hear what a judicious Country-Gentleman writes to his Friend upon the reading of The Spirit of Alexander and the Winding-sheet W. P's words of J. P. are more scornful than can be seem any pretender to sobriety His stomack is neither nice nor squeamish He can I see talk at the rate of a Coffee-house Pamphleteer and account it a piece of high self-denial to set his name to his jerking answers This man is more mild than that learned and conscientious man who upon the reading of his Winding-sheet gives him in his Letter the title of Buffoon and much more of that import which I do not remember VV. P. His treating of J. P. and his Wife in this manner puts me in mind of his calling it a horrid lye that they with the Papists prefer a loose person before a Non-conformist p. 15. for what are J. P. and his Wife our Author and the other ingenious Quakers whom they call Hat-men any other but Nonconformists whom yet he treats as Apostates the worst of men so that his answer to that charge which he calls a horrid lie proves it a clear truth if there were nothing else as there wants not enough to bear evidence XXIII Now for conclusion to this very unpleasent work which the benefit I hope many will reap from it has put me upon I shall further alledg several testimonyes both out of G. Fox VV. Pen himself and divers other of their approved men against the honour and reverence of the Hat which now they impose upon peril of all sacred and civil privileges that are in their power to deprive their people of King G. Fox True Honour among the Jews P. 8. The Honour and Worship with the Hat and that humility so called is voluntary and voluntary humility and not of command by Christ and his Apostles c. P. 11. For the Hat is an earthly thing and a thing below and they that trouble fine imprison about it cannot chuse but mind earthly things and mind things below and circumstances and customs and fashions of the world and feigned humility in which there is no substance which is below the Royal Seed and the nobility and dignity of a man and the honour above and the Worship of God and the true humility which goes before true honour that is above P. 13. Now is not Christians worse then these who make such a work and adoe about putting off their Hats which are for the covering their nakedness But the true Jews would not put off their Hats in the Synagogue nor in the Temple c. 1653. G. Fox and Rich. Hubberthorus Reply to the Northern Ministers in a Book called Truths Defence c. P. 22. And when you read them the Psalms Hats you keep on and when you sing them Hats you put off and here you worship the works of your own hands c. 1653. G. Fox in a Book called Several Papers c. P. 5. And when they read the Psalms they keep on their Hats and when they sing them they keep off their Hats here they worship the work of their own hands all such practices we deny About 1659 G. Fox To the Judges and Lawyers P. 10. Now the Hat-Worship that Honour that Idol is set up by transgressors but men that be in the Law of God which is over transgression they mind not the Hat P. 25 Now puting off the Hat is but a custom got up among the Christians since the Apostles in the Apostacy a vain custom set up by traditions which is a worship of Men and of the Beast and honour below and an Idol set up by Transgressors P. 27. O what a covering of darkness is got over you speaking of the then
