More last Words and Sayings of the True Protestant Elm-Board or a full Answer to a late pretended Sober Vindication of the Dr. and the Board I Am something amaz'd that the Vindicator should call my harmless Discourse a Prophane Pasquil for I would have him to know that he has little reason to stigmatize so innocent a Paper with so odious an Epithet unless it is because F. Sh _____ s name is to it but he that will call him a Patron of Wit and Criticism or magnifie the Doctors Loyalty to his Prince and Fidelity to his Master will call any thing a Prophane Pasquil As for his second Paragraph there are almost as many contradictions in it as there are in Oates's Narrative for he says that the Board is yet living and at the same time that it was never born Let the mercenary Inhabitants of Kent-street Fib and Swear on for one day truth and reason will rise up in judgment against them Besides Mr. Vindicator by my truly your love is a million for I can produce a company of good substantial Cripples and Broom-men that can prove the Board to be as dead as a Herting or rather a door-Nail altho it 's confess'd that the Ghost of the Board has been seen to walk and it is generally believed that it has hid some Shavings thereabouts As for the nativity of the Board that is undeniable for Gadbury has cast it and whosoever says that it was not a Dresser-Board in the Kitchin of Sh. B _____ l must have this suspicion that Sh. B _____ l never had a Dresser-Board nor a Kitchin so that it is evident that the Board was born and is now as dead as Beddingfield the Jesuite altho Sir W. W. so eminent for burning Mother Lowse instead of the Virgin Mary caught him plotting above ground after he was buried In the third Paragraph of his Vindication he says I term the Dr. a Reverend Scot for which I beg his pardon for I will never do so any more but he proceeds and affirms positively that the Dr. does never disturb the sick but rather makes them merry and jocose Now certainly this is a very great disturbance to make men laugh and giggle that should be thoughtful and serious Nor is his Vindication of Dr. T. O. less non-sensical and impertinent for he that will Testifie through a Key-hole will Swear through an Inch-board I 'll be judg'd by the Dr. himself else But is it so ridiculous an action for the Dr. to kiss a Board I am sure it had been letter for him if he had married one As for his sitting down upon him without a Cushion he does the same thing every night upon as hard a Board at the Nags-head-Club As for the Gentleman that loves Custard let me tell you he deserves to have it thrown into his Face for telling so impudent an untruth for Elk. Settle that loves Custard as well as himself can testifie that the rest of the last words and sayings of the Protestant Elm Board were these for he took the Dr. by the hand and said Draw near and comfort me for I have been a very sinful Board Dr. Here is a Book that I have written The whole duty of Boards read that for it will instruct and edifie you Board Ah Doctor I am sorry that I must dye before the times turn Dr. Come come chear up you may live till to morrow and I hope they will turn before that time However let this be your comfort that you are going to meet St. Colledg Board Whither I hope you will all follow me Dr. Farewel then for I must go to the Nags-head-Club Board Pray Dr. stay a little longer Dr. I cannot in truth for delays are dangerous ud's me they will score me up many bumpers The Board was something troubled that the Dr. should make such haste away but considering it was to carry on the good Old Cause it was contented and satisfied and desired to be remembred kindly to Sir Thomas Creswel Sh. Sh. Pilk and Tho. Fir. cum ●ultis aliis Now let the world judg whether or no I have imposed upon them or wrested the prose and meaning of the last words and sayings of the Protestant Elm-Board for I protest I am so much a hater of false History that rather than I would be thought one would gladly suffer red hot Iron with the Board Printed for S. HADWEL 1682.
