mr._n blackall_n reason_n for_o not_o reply_v to_o a_o book_n late_o publish_v entitle_v amyntor_n in_o a_o letter_n to_o a_o friend_n the_o second_o edition_n london_n print_v for_o walter_n kettilby_n at_o the_o bishops-head_n in_o st._n paul_n churchyard_n 1699._o sir_n by_o your_o so_o much_o urge_v i_o to_o think_v of_o write_v somewhat_o by_o way_n of_o answer_n to_o amyntor_n it_o seem_v to_o i_o that_o you_o have_v not_o yet_o read_v the_o book_n but_o only_o dip_v here_o and_o there_o in_o it_o and_o because_o you_o see_v my_o name_n frequent_o mention_v think_v there_o must_v needs_o be_v something_o in_o the_o book_n that_o bear_v hard_a upon_o i_o and_o which_o i_o be_o concern_v in_o honour_n to_o make_v some_o reply_n to_o i_o desire_v you_o therefore_o first_o to_o read_v over_o the_o book_n very_o careful_o if_o you_o have_v not_o yet_o do_v it_o and_o after_o that_o to_o consider_v those_o reason_n which_o i_o shall_v now_o give_v you_o why_o i_o have_v no_o thought_n at_o present_a of_o write_v any_o answer_n to_o it_o and_o then_o i_o make_v no_o doubt_n but_o you_o will_v be_v of_o my_o mind_n viz._n that_o it_o be_v altogether_o needless_a for_o i_o to_o give_v either_o myself_o or_o the_o world_n any_o more_o trouble_n about_o this_o matter_n in_o amyntor_n there_o be_v first_o a_o general_a apology_n for_o write_v life_n whether_o of_o good_a or_o bad_a men._n but_o in_o this_o part_n of_o the_o book_n from_o p._n 1._o to_o 11._o you_o will_v see_v plain_o i_o be_o not_o concern_v the_o next_o part_n of_o it_o from_o p._n 11._o to_o 81._o be_v indeed_o occasion_v by_o a_o passage_n in_o my_o sermon_n before_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o and_o therefore_o you_o with_o other_o may_v think_v perhaps_o it_o lie_v on_o i_o to_o reply_v to_o it_o but_o when_o you_o have_v read_v it_o over_o i_o believe_v you_o will_v be_v of_o another_o mind_n because_o you_o will_v easy_o perceive_v that_o the_o author_n and_o i_o be_v at_o last_o well_o enough_o agree_v in_o that_o point_n wherein_o we_o seem_v most_o to_o differ_v the_o matter_n of_o fact_n be_v this_o he_o have_v say_v in_o the_o life_n of_o milton_n that_o many_o supposititious_a piece_n under_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n and_o other_o great_a person_n have_v be_v publish_v and_o approve_v by_o some_o i_o suppose_v he_o mean_v not_o by_o all_o in_o the_o primitive_a time_n and_o to_o this_o observation_n because_o by_o my_o little_a read_n i_o know_v there_o be_v much_o of_o truth_n in_o it_o i_o make_v no_o exception_n but_o he_o have_v say_v moreover_o that_o he_o doubt_v the_o spuriousness_n of_o several_a more_o such_o book_n be_v yet_o undiscovered_a through_o the_o remoteness_n of_o those_o time_n etc._n etc._n and_o this_o passage_n i_o find_v fault_n with_o as_o what_o proceed_v from_o the_o mouth_n of_o a_o person_n in_o high_a esteem_n as_o i_o have_v hear_v with_o some_o man_n for_o his_o great_a part_n and_o learning_n may_v give_v occasion_n to_o they_o and_o to_z other_o not_o so_o well_o read_v in_o antiquity_n as_o they_o take_v he_o to_o be_v to_o think_v that_o some_o of_o those_o book_n which_o be_v receive_v by_o the_o whole_a christian_a church_n as_o part_n of_o canonical_a scripture_n be_v of_o very_o uncertain_a authority_n because_o as_o i_o then_o say_v i_o know_v of_o no_o other_o piece_n under_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n the_o spuriousness_n whereof_o have_v not_o be_v discover_v and_o i_o charge_v he_o with_o infidelity_n if_o indeed_o he_o do_v doubt_n of_o the_o authority_n of_o these_o book_n and_o with_o immodesty_n for_o so_o open_o affront_v the_o holy_a religion_n profess_v and_o establish_v among_o we_o by_o declare_v this_o his_o doubt_n in_o print_n but_o he_o say_v now_o that_o i_o be_v mistake_v in_o my_o censure_n because_o the_o book_n which_o he_o mean_v viz._n in_o this_o last_o passage_n which_o i_o except_v against_o as_o well_o as_o in_o the_o former_a or_o else_o all_o that_o he_o write_v from_o p._n 18._o to_o p._n 43._o be_v nothing_o to_o i_o nor_o to_o the_o purpose_n be_v either_o some_o book_n the_o spuriousness_n of_o most_o of_o which_o have_v be_v discover_v many_o hundred_o year_n ago_o and_o which_o be_v few_o of_o they_o now_o extant_a a_o large_a catalogue_n whereof_o he_o have_v give_v we_o from_o p._n 20._o to_o p._n 42_o and_o it_o seem_v it_o be_v only_o my_o foolish_a mistake_n to_o think_v that_o the_o word_n yet_o when_o he_o say_v the_o spuriousness_n of_o these_o book_n be_v yet_o undiscovered_a do_v refer_v to_o this_o present_a year_n whenas_o indeed_o it_o be_v mean_v by_o he_o to_o refer_v to_o some_o time_n many_o year_n since_o past_a and_o go_v or_o else_o he_o mean_v the_o book_n ascribe_v to_o certain_a apostolic_a man_n particular_o the_o epistle_n of_o barnahas_n the_o pastor_n of_o hermas_n the_o epistle_n of_o polycarpus_n to_o the_o philippian_n the_o first_o epistle_n of_o clemens_n romanus_n to_o the_o corinthian_n and_o the_o seven_o epistle_n of_o iginatus_n and_o i_o can_v imagine_v now_o what_o you_o will_v have_v i_o reply_v to_o this_o for_o whether_o he_o do_v mean_v these_o and_o only_o these_o book_n in_o that_o passage_n which_o i_o except_v against_o none_o can_v certain_o tell_v but_o himself_o if_o therefore_o he_o say_v he_o do_v mean_a only_o these_o and_o not_o the_o book_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n how_o can_v i_o contradict_v he_o all_o that_o i_o can_v say_v to_o this_o if_o i_o have_v a_o mind_n to_o reply_v to_o this_o part_n of_o his_o book_n will_v be_v only_o to_o give_v the_o world_n the_o reason_n that_o make_v i_o think_v he_o mean_v not_o these_o only_a but_o likewise_o some_o of_o the_o book_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n which_o be_v this_o that_o he_o have_v speak_v before_o of_o supposititious_a piece_n under_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n as_o well_o as_o of_o other_o great_a person_n it_o be_v very_o reasonable_a to_o think_v that_o when_o immediate_o after_o in_o the_o same_o period_n he_o speak_v of_o several_a more_o such_o book_n the_o spuriousness_n of_o which_o be_v not_o yet_o discover_v he_o have_v mean_v several_a some_o at_o least_o of_o all_o the_o sort_n before_o mention_v that_o be_v some_o under_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n and_o some_o under_o the_o name_n of_o his_o apostle_n as_o well_o as_o some_o under_o the_o name_n of_o other_o great_a person_n for_o how_o shall_v i_o know_v what_o he_o mean_v by_o such_o book_n but_o by_o look_v back_o and_o see_v what_o book_n he_o have_v speak_v of_o before_o and_o find_v that_o he_o have_v there_o speak_v not_o only_o of_o book_n under_o the_o name_n of_o other_o great_a person_n but_o likewise_o under_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n what_o can_v i_o understand_v by_o such_o book_n but_o some_o book_n under_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n as_o well_o as_o some_o under_o the_o name_n of_o other_o great_a person_n and_o if_o he_o do_v not_o mean_v so_o or_o will_v not_o have_v be_v think_v to_o have_v mean_v so_o he_o ought_v i_o think_v to_o have_v distinguish_v and_o have_v make_v that_o passage_n which_o i_o except_v against_o a_o entire_a sentence_n by_o its_o self_n and_o have_v say_v plain_o that_o though_o he_o think_v some_o book_n spurious_a which_o some_o other_o believe_v to_o be_v genuine_a they_o be_v only_o some_o piece_n that_o have_v be_v sacribe_v to_o the_o other_o great_a man_n but_o not_o any_o of_o those_o that_o be_v receive_v as_o piece_n of_o christ_n or_o his_o apostle_n and_o if_o he_o have_v write_v his_o mind_n thus_o clear_o i_o shall_v no_o more_o have_v except_v against_o this_o passage_n than_o i_o do_v against_o the_o former_a but_o he_o say_v if_o i_o have_v be_v dispose_v to_o deal_v ingenuous_o with_o he_o i_o may_v have_v see_v without_o the_o help_n of_o the_o father_n which_o he_o suppose_v i_o know_v nothing_o of_o that_o he_o do_v not_o mean_v the_o book_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n when_o he_o mention_v supposititious_a piece_n under_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n since_o there_o be_v none_o ascribe_v to_o he_o in_o the_o whole_a bible_n nor_o do_v we_o read_v there_o that_o he_o ever_o write_v any_o thing_n except_o once_o with_o his_o finger_n on_o the_o ground_n when_o he_o acquit_v the_o woman_n take_v in_o adultery_n but_o i_o wonder_v this_o shall_v be_v urge_v by_o a_o man_n that_o have_v so_o very_o late_o write_v the_o life_n of_o john_n milton_n for_o by_o the_o same_o argument_n i_o may_v prove_v that_o paradise_n lose_v and_o other_o late_a piece_n ascribe_v by_o this_o author_n as_o well_o as_o
other_o to_z john_n milton_n be_v none_o of_o he_o because_o it_o be_v certain_a they_o be_v not_o write_v by_o he_o for_o how_o can_v he_o write_v when_o he_o be_v blind_a and_o if_o to_o this_o he_o shall_v answer_v as_o i_o suppose_v he_o will_v that_o they_o may_v however_o true_o and_o proper_o enough_o be_v say_v to_o be_v piece_n of_o milton_n because_o they_o be_v dictate_v although_o not_o write_v by_o himself_o i_o see_v no_o reason_n why_o our_o saviour_n sermon_n on_o the_o mount_n and_o his_o several_a other_o sermon_n and_o discourse_n which_o be_v utter_v and_o speak_v by_o himself_o though_o record_v by_o the_o evangelist_n may_v not_o be_v ascribe_v to_o he_o and_o be_v say_v in_o this_o author_n phrase_n to_o be_v piece_n under_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n so_o that_o if_o this_o be_v the_o only_a reason_n i_o have_v to_o think_v that_o when_o he_o mention_v piece_n under_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n and_o other_o great_a man_n he_o do_v not_o mean_v the_o book_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n i_o think_v that_o since_o there_o be_v no_o piece_n now_o extant_a that_o can_v in_o any_o sense_n be_v call_v piece_n under_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n the_o spuriousness_n whereof_o have_v not_o be_v discover_v except_o only_o those_o which_o make_v up_o the_o new_a testament_n i_o have_v much_o better_a reason_n to_o believe_v that_o he_o do_v mean_v these_o or_o some_o of_o these_o and_o in_o this_o opinion_n i_o be_v the_o more_o confirm_v because_o i_o never_o either_o before_o the_o 30_o of_o january_n or_o since_o have_v meet_v with_o so_o much_o as_o one_o single_a person_n that_o do_v not_o understand_v that_o passage_n in_o his_o book_n in_o the_o same_o sense_n that_o i_o do_v whether_o therefore_o i_o do_v mistake_v and_o misrepresent_v his_o mean_v be_v a_o question_n that_o none_o but_o he_o himself_o who_o best_o know_v his_o own_o mean_v can_v decide_v but_o whether_o i_o mistake_v it_o if_o indeed_o i_o do_v mistake_v it_o without_o sufficient_a ground_n from_o his_o own_o expression_n be_v another_o question_n which_o i_o can_v very_o willing_o leave_v to_o be_v decide_v by_o any_o indifferent_a person_n nay_o if_o i_o be_v to_o choose_v the_o judge_n and_o can_v be_v well_o assure_v that_o they_o will_v speak_v their_o mind_n free_o they_o shall_v be_v those_o very_a man_n that_o be_v his_o great_a admirer_n who_o i_o be_o persuade_v will_v all_o with_o one_o voice_n say_v that_o they_o understand_v he_o as_o i_o do_v and_o that_o they_o look_v upon_o that_o exposition_n which_o he_o have_v now_o give_v of_o that_o passage_n as_o little_o better_a than_o a_o retractation_n of_o that_o bold_a position_n which_o they_o think_v he_o have_v before_o advance_v and_o for_o the_o sake_n of_o which_o and_o of_o other_o such_o like_a impious_a insinuation_n in_o that_o and_o other_o book_n say_v to_o be_v write_a by_o the_o same_o author_n i_o fear_v it_o be_v that_o they_o do_v chief_o admire_v he_o but_o whether_o i_o do_v misunderstand_v he_o or_o no_o and_o whether_o i_o have_v good_a reason_n to_o understand_v he_o as_o i_o do_v or_o not_o be_v private_a question_n which_o only_o he_o and_o i_o be_v concern_v in_o and_o i_o think_v it_o foolish_a to_o trouble_v the_o rest_n of_o the_o world_n about_o they_o it_o be_v sufficient_a that_o now_o at_o last_o we_o be_v agree_v in_o the_o main_a question_n which_o be_v of_o more_o general_n concern_v for_o unless_o i_o misunderstand_v he_o now_o as_o much_o as_o he_o say_v i_o do_v before_o he_o now_o agree_v with_o i_o that_o the_o book_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n be_v genuine_a which_o be_v all_o i_o ever_o mean_v to_o contend_v for_o he_o therefore_o have_v declare_v 42._o that_o in_o the_o first_o member_n of_o that_o passage_n in_o milton_n '_o s_o life_n by_o the_o spurious_a book_n publish_v in_o the_o primitive_a time_n under_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n and_o

the_o ancient_n be_v not_o without_o convince_a reason_n receive_v by_o the_o modern_n i_o have_v now_o no_o further_o quarrel_v with_o he_o upon_o the_o account_n of_o this_o passage_n we_o be_v thus_o far_o full_o agree_v may_v he_o always_o continue_v in_o the_o good_a mind_n he_o seem_v now_o to_o be_v in_o only_o if_o i_o may_v be_v hear_v by_o he_o as_o a_o friend_n i_o will_v advise_v

lie_v upon_o i_o more_o than_o any_o one_o else_o to_o defend_v viz._n that_o speak_v of_o k._n charles_n i._o in_o my_o sermon_n i_o shall_v say_v the_o best_a of_o king_n and_o the_o best_a of_o

in_o i_o than_o it_o will_v be_v in_o another_o because_o i_o write_v myself_o chaplain_n to_o his_o majesty_n but_o the_o author_n i_o think_v do_v not_o say_v he_o himself_o be_v offend_v at_o this_o expression_n and_o i_o suppose_v those_o several_a if_o indeed_o there_o be_v any_o that_o upon_o this_o account_n only_o be_v angry_a at_o it_o be_v only_o such_o as_o not_o only_o have_v

manifest_o a_o invidious_a cavil_v i_o think_v needs_o no_o answer_n especial_o when_o in_o the_o sermon_n itself_o though_o i_o commend_v k._n charles_n i._o for_o his_o virtue_n i_o do_v allow_v that_o he_o have_v fault_n but_o the_o fault_n that_o be_v then_o and_o have_v since_o be_v charge_v upon_o he_o be_v only_o such_o as_o he_o may_v be_v and_o i_o believe_v be_v lead_v into_o by_o
