feeble_a onset_n of_o your_o canker_a fiery_a opponent_n who_o write_n against_o you_o most_o of_o they_o seem_v to_o i_o to_o be_v indict_v by_o nothing_o but_o spleen_n and_o choler_n nor_o have_v i_o be_v able_a to_o ascribe_v the_o engage_v of_o so_o many_o virulent_a pen_n against_o you_o to_o any_o other_o cause_n than_o the_o endeavour_n of_o satan_n to_o hinder_v the_o success_n which_o your_o powerful_a pen_n have_v have_v against_o the_o dark_a kingdom_n and_o the_o spirit_n that_o i_o have_v perceive_v to_o animate_v some_o of_o their_o wild_a rave_n have_v confirm_v i_o in_o that_o belief_n that_o it_o be_v the_o great_a abaddon_n that_o inspire_v their_o undertake_n i_o think_v ever_o this_o to_o have_v give_v you_o a_o more_o public_a specimen_fw-la of_o my_o

cyrus_n and_o his_o very_a worthy_a son_n now_o dead_a and_o i_o true_o believe_v that_o dr._n lewis_n be_v a_o sincere_a honest-hearted_a man_n though_o dr._n stillingfleet_n seem_v to_o dislike_v my_o give_v he_o that_o title_n and_o i_o will_v tell_v you_o why_o i_o think_v so_o §_o 2._o i_o ever_o observe_v that_o his_o fault_n lay_v in_o his_o weakness_n and_o not_o in_o wickedness_n 1._o he_o be_v not_o a_o man_n of_o a_o accurate_a distinguish_a head_n and_o so_o be_v apt_a to_o take_v verbal_a controversy_n for_o real_a 2._o and_o it_o be_v no_o singular_a thing_n in_o he_o that_o hereby_o he_o be_v lead_v by_o the_o authority_n which_o he_o most_o value_v to_o think_v that_o the_o difference_n between_o the_o remonstrant_n and_o contra_n remonstrants'_v be_v much_o great_a than_o they_o be_v and_o arminianism_n as_o it_o be_v call_v to_o be_v a_o more_o heinous_a thing_n than_o indeed_o it_o be_v 3._o and_o when_o he_o think_v that_o god_n cause_n as_o bradwardine_n call_v it_o be_v so_o deep_o engage_v against_o such_o opinion_n who_o can_v wonder_v if_o he_o be_v zealous_a against_o they_o 4._o and_o then_o he_o have_v a_o hasty_a rashness_n in_o speak_v what_o he_o think_v be_v true_a and_o necessary_a when_o sometime_o it_o be_v not_o well_o try_v and_o sometime_o it_o be_v in_o a_o imprudent_a manner_n and_o time_n and_o so_o in_o his_o haste_n run_v into_o the_o temerity_n and_o mistake_n which_o mr._n daillé_n and_o i_o do_v blame_v he_o for_o but_o i_o never_o perceive_v that_o he_o have_v more_o passion_n much_o less_o fury_n than_o other_o ordinary_a disputer_n but_o a_o more_o ra●h_n and_o bluster_a way_n of_o utter_v his_o mind_n sometime_o and_o in_o some_o case_n where_o he_o think_v religion_n much_o concern_v he_o h●●_n so_o servant_n ●_o love_n to_o truth_n that_o he_o sometime_o rush_v upon_o mistake_n that_o wear_v the_o vizor_n of_o it_o and_o then_o truth_n real_a or_o suppose_a whatever_o it_o cost_v he_o he_o will_v speak_v 5._o i_o ever_o observe_v it_o be_v in_o his_o too_o extreme_a opposition_n to_o some_o real_a error_n or_o crime_n that_o he_o be_v carry_v into_o his_o temerity_n 6._o and_o i_o never_o find_v that_o he_o be_v a_o worldling_n nor_o sin_v by_o the_o preference_n of_o worldly_a interest_n and_o doubtless_o the_o love_n of_o worldly_a profit_n honour_n and_o pleasure_n be_v more_o dangerous_o contrary_a to_o the_o love_n of_o god_n than_o some_o rash_a uncharitable_a word_n and_o censure_n in_o a_o cause_n which_o he_o think_v be_v go_n §_o 3._o yea_o i_o find_v he_o more_o patient_a of_o confutation_n contradiction_n and_o reproof_n than_o most_o man_n that_o ever_o i_o dispute_v with_o his_o zeal_n which_o you_o call_v fury_n be_v far_o more_o for_o god_n than_o for_o himself_o i_o begin_v with_o he_o about_o 24_o year_n ago_o confute_v his_o latin_a book_n of_o justification_n against_o his_o brother_n cyrus_n i_o write_v a_o second_o time_n against_o he_o in_o the_o preface_n cite_v by_o his_o picture-drawer_n about_o universal_a redemption_n and_o have_v say_v much_o more_o in_o a_o book_n of_o universal_a redemption_n go_v to_o the_o press_n which_o i_o cast_v by_o because_o mr._n daillés_fw-fr come_v then_o out_o which_o have_v the_o same_o testimonial_a part_n and_o more_o which_o i_o intend_v yet_o i_o never_o hear_v that_o the_o dr._n give_v i_o any_o uncivil_a or_o uncharitable_a word_n nor_o do_v he_o ever_o reply_v to_o either_o of_o these_o book_n nor_o signify_v any_o abatement_n of_o his_o love_n and_o i_o think_v this_o show_v a_o forgive_a mind_n §_o 4._o but_o it_o be_v intimate_v that_o this_o be_v because_o we_o agree_v in_o other_o thing_n i_o answer_v we_o disagree_v also_o even_o about_o church-government_n which_o be_v
