REFLECTIONS ON A LIBEL INTITULED A Plea for the Apothecaries LONDON Printed for Richard Chiswell at the two Angels and Crown in Little Britain 1671. Reflections on a Libel intituled A Plea for the Apothecaries Reader Observe that I. R. signifies the Libeller W.C. the Animadverter D. M. the Person writ against by the Libeller AFter twelve months consideration comes forth this Plea written by an Apothecary as appears page 41 42. and perhaps the Author of this Paper could from I. R's own Company have named him and could tell that though he were not commissionated yet the presentation thereof was liked by them But for his gravity I shall spare the naming him taking notice only of his matter and failings I. R. in page 41. 42. endeavours to gain a belief because saith he he was never accounted a Liar That he is one shall be first proved out of his false Quotations in his Book Page 8. He refers you to something lately published by an intelligent knowing person of the same faculty but since he is ashamed to name him 't is H. Stubbs proved at large by D. M. and Mr. Glanvil to be a most Impudent and notorious Slanderer and Liar I. R. goes on and saith he quotes him totidem verbis viz. If I might take an estimate of his parts from his writings c. W.C. disparaging maliciously all D. M's Books whereas the words of H. Stubb's are from that writing viz. the View A second is in page 24 25. I.R. saith that D.M. will put in one grain or two at most for an hundred as was formerly demonstrated from his own confession See Pag. 15. of I. R's Book where D. M. speaks of Bills and not of Prescriptions and those too not of his own Bills for he makes none but of the Apothecaries rated Bills Page 41. I. R. affirms D. M. would make the world believe that the Company of Apothecaries combined with H. S. to asperse the Royal Society W. C. There 's nothing of the Company of Apothecaries nor of combination in D. M's Book Page 26. I. R. makes D.M. to call his own medicines inconsiderable W.C. Which is absurdly false Page 33. He falsly pins these words on D.M. viz. A Physician ought not to make use of any chargeable things No such words in any of D. M's books nor doth I. R. quote any place where they should be W.C. Lies of another order are p. 9 10. that D.M. suborned Dr. Cox to write his book against the Apothecaries p. 1. That D. M. had an intention to invade their Profession W.C. 't is his birth-right as has been proved which he saith hath been for many years constituted W. C. The contrary whereof he acknowledgeth Page 2. I.R. goes on and saith the whole series of Pharmacy understand these words who can by their good Laws hath been improved to as high and laudable a Pitch as in any forein Nation or Republick whatsoever W. C. Next follow his modest lies wherewith he asperseth D. M. saying he is a Criminator mad or blind cajoles the Ladies collogues Surgeons and Nurses setting the Nurses cock a hoop and chusing them for his Mates calls him Sinon Saul among the Prophets for quoting St. Augustine his Language is high provoking invective abusive his many aspersions unjustly charged his former chat Tale of a Tub he rants and chants and will do so in infinitum bauls and chants Zealot for kindling coals acts contrary to all good manners and ingenuity his nakedness and rudeness he hath as many tricks as a dancing Horse Hyperbolizeth to such a height he deceives and deludes calls him impudent Mountebank saith he gives little or nothing or nothing to the purpose to his Patients Scornfully he saith the good Doctor worthy Doctor Domine Doctor a learned Physician a pretender to Philosophy a great Philosopher c. His brave Heroic Roman valour his humour of vapouring his imaginary confidence with much more to the same purpose from this modest man W. C. Next follows the malice of this Zealot for kindling coals as he phraseth it to D. M. in several places Page 5 9 14 15 17 18 46. to set his Collegues and most of his own Profession against him by childish and pitiful deductions But that all this is false the choosing by vote of D. M. and Dr. Goddard Censors for this present year evidently demonstrate to all the world that the College judge they have not aspersed or injured any of their Faculty W.C. Now I come to the matter of his Plea wherein he acknowledgeth all the Frauds and abuses to Patients and Physicians complained of in the View endeavouring only sillily to evade some as will appear by what followeth Page 3. He saith he will not countenance any of their members to take upon them the practice of Physick nor that they should repeat a whole course of Physick without the directors knowledge And p. 36. That the Apothecary of his own head in any case of difficulty or danger mark that should dare to undertake the cure of the Patient without consulting the Physician He conceives that the Apothecary doth not therein discharge his duty But page 40. contrary to what hath been before said he restrains them only from the professed customary practice of Physick Page 2. He believes there may be some persons that use medicines quite contrary to the Prescriptions and falsifie the grand compositions of the London Dispensatory And Page 12. That the whole-sale-men sell not medicines honestly made Page 13. he confesseth the seventh eighth and ninth Criminations And page 14. to the first eight he hath nothing to say Page 27. Commends Zwelfer for reforming Mithridate and Treacle which the same Author also calls absurd and ridiculous which words are far higher than unintelligible and unreasonable of D. M's Page 29. That 't is above the Sphere of the Company of Apothecaries to meddle with Medicines which are best or to make any alteration in Compositions Page 32. He ingenuously acknowledgeth that the Apothecaries might better keep their Shops and do the Patients better service than by their Visitings Page 39. That Physicians may use their own Arcanums or Preparations and that upon just grounds they may turn out the Apothecaries Page 40. He cannot judge it reasonable that the Apothecaries should discover the Physicians Arcanums W. C. By this the Reader may easily perceive he acknowledgeth all the material things D.M. complains of what he doth not now followeth page by page In reply to whom W. C. will give you the bare objections and answers leaving out his impertinently quoted Latine and farcing in things to no purpose to mislead the unconsidering Reader Pag. 1. Three falsities have been mentioned in it Pag. 2. Contains only ill language and his own unfitness to answer Pag. 3 4. mentions some things he saith he will not intrench on the Physicians and such as D. M. complains of Pag. 5. saith D. M. asperseth his own Profession besides some words of railing Pag. 6 7. he
