A90123	Fratres in Malo, or The matchles couple, represented in the writings of Mr. Edward Bagshaw, and Mr. Henry Hickman; by way of answer to a scandalous letter, bearing the name of Mr. Bagshaw; and to a slanderous libel, fictitiously subscribed by Theophilus Churchman, but proved to be written by Henry Hickman. To which is added a Latine essay, very briefly and plainly reconciling God's præscience with the free-will of man, which Mr. Bagshaw thought irreconcileable. All in vindication of Dr. Heylin and Mr. Pierce. By one of the meanest of their admirers M.O. Bachelour of Arts.	Ogilvy, Michael, d. 1666.	1660 (1660)	Wing O186; Thomason E1044_12; ESTC R7136	26,823	40

Scribler a poor Fellow Dr. Taylor Socinian and Pelagain Dr. Martin the Licencer of a scurrilous Pamphlet c. You boast of contributing to the relief of Sequestred men ib. And yet you swallowed no less then three Benefices at once although you had no right to any of them viz. The Vicarage of Brackley belonging to learned Dr. Sibthorp the Parsonage so St. Aules worth 150. pounds per An. and a Fellowship of Madg. Coll. enough for any single man who is not a greedy Puritanical Robber Before you were made to quit Brackley you pocketed up the profits of all three at once without the least right to so much as one You say that Dr. H. H. a most eminent Scholar affirmed concerning Dr. Heylin that he was an unhappy writer and marred every thing he medled with p. 1. A slander so great that if you do not recant it or name some Author you will be as proverbial for your own invention as you are already for slily filching other mens I have learnt upon enquiry of which I have made a great deal that Dr. H. H. can belong to none but Dr. Hammond and Dr. Hentchman who are both the friends of Dr. Heylin as I am certified by some who are friends to both and great applauders of his workes and disclaim the having so much as given occasion to any slander And therefore down upon you knees and ask forgiveness of the Doctor before the world or else I will make you as famous for something else as you have been for the Tooth-ach to which you pretended even ex tempore upon the coming forth of the new Discoverer Discovered You also say that he was checkt by Dr. Prideaux for going a little to neer the Papist p. 31. that he would fain have brought some of his brood into the Colledge p. 22. And you tell a large story of a check he received from the Marquesse of Hartford p. 35. All which with the rest of what you have vented against the Dr. are at least as ungrounded and home-bread lyes as the Father of lies hath ever framed But t is no more to his disgrace that he suffers as his Saviour hath done before him than it can be to your glory that you have used Gods servants as the Puritan Pharisees did his Son If now with your slanders and other lies I shall abstract from your work as we ought to do all your old ends of stuff which are impertinent to the businesse as well as stolne your over many and long tales and if besides I shall expunge as I ought also to do your world of Libellous and railing speeches there will be nothing remaining throughout the whole composition which doth any way relate to the controversie in hand but what is abundantly confuted in the Certamen Epistolare and in effect by your own Confession Your confession is this p. 40. That if you thought the Church of England had embraced ☞ or but connived at Doctrines so pernicious as Mr. Pierce represents the Calvinistical to be you should account her the worst of all Churches not indeed worthy the name of a Church From hence it follows undeniablely and even your favourers cannot deny it that as far as you believe that the Church of England is not the worst of Churches so far you grant that the Calvinistical cannot be possibly her Doctrines Mark now my reason Those Doctrines are Calvinistical which are publickly taught by Mr. Calvin and the most eminent of his Followers But Mr. Pierce hath made it manifest from the words of Calvin and his followers exactly cited from their Books that they have commonly taught God to be the Author of sin and that in all manner of termes in which that Blasphemy can be expressed see variety of examples produced by Mr. Peirce in his 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Chap. 1. p. 8. but especially Ch. 3. p. 140 141. which no one Calvinist hath ever attempted to gainsay Therefore you grant the whole thing for the proving of which Dr. Heylin wrote viz. that the Doctrines of the Calvinists cannot be possibly embrace'd by the Church of England Which you cannot yet deny unlesse by saying shee deserves not the name of a Church which are your own words in the place above cited Nor is it strange since in your scandalous Latine Sermon of whose faults I could send you a vast accompt if I had time you rail as bitterly as a Jesuit at the Church of England For could a Jesuit say worse than that * Concio dé Haeres orig p. 7. The Church of England alone hath brought forth Monsters of opinions at which a mad Aegyptian would stand amaz'd yet this is nothing but the English of your Latine in that printed Sermon p. 7. l. 11 12 13 14. As for your saying that by One Dr. Overal you meant not two when 't was spoken so plainly by way of scorn and for the work you make with Typographical Errata which are so clearly typographical that they make arrant Nonsense which could never have fall'n from Dr. Heylin it is so much to your shame that you could catch at such flies as I need not wish you a greater punishment Now I come to your Letter to Dr. Heylin printed together with your Book And first I begin with your wilfull Lyes For though you had promis'd in the Title-page a Reply to Mr Pierce yet you and all your Readers know there is not any such thing in all the Pamphlet You should have said in the Title-page A sneaking away from Mr. Pierce For 1. whereas he proved from your words citing your pages and very lines that you had printed many Blasphemies as that the hating of God is Gods own Creature c. and as many self-contradictions also you durst not return so much as a syllable to the one or the other but by answering nothing you implied his proofs to be unanswerable because you promised an answer to them which had you been able you would have readily performed And 2. whereas he had charg'd you with no less than an hundred and nine stealths there are but two of so vast a number which you endeavour to excuse And how do you endeavour it even by such enormous Lies as will make you an example to all posterity First you say you never read Dr. Heylins Antidotum Lincolniense p. 170. And yet you stole from him diverse times together word for word Once more look upon the * See Mr. Pierce's Letter p. 280. parallel and say if it is possible that you never read Dr. Heylins Book Dr. Heylin Mr. Hickman Only I will make bold to deal with you as Alexander did with his horse Bucephalus take you a little by the bridle and turn you towards the Sun that other men may see how you lay about you though your self do not Antid Lincoln ch 1. p. 5. l. 3 4 c.

Mr. Bagshaw   P. 8. The passage and application of the Stoick in Lucian his outery supplying his want of Argument crying 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 is visibly stolne from Mr. Chillingworth his Epistle Dedicatory to the King p. 3. These particulars are many many even to admiration considering the shortness of your Exercitation with which your Printer was not able to fill up three little leaves notwithstanding the largeness of his Character as well as his many and great breaks And now pray to what purpose is the little all that you have said The Latine Exercitation Epitomized you onely tell us as well as you can that is very improperly what every childe could have told you That the Stoicks held one thing and the Platonicks quite another and that if any one has a minde to examine the matter of Free-will he may read Bp. Bramhal affirming and Thomas Hobbs more then Stoically denying what the Scripture you say affirmeth The Free-will of man After which you conclude that you believe it for your own part as being taught it out of the Scripture although you see no reason for it and cannot conceive how it should be yea that it can as * Non dubitaverim affirmare nihil esse quod minus probari posse putem p. 19. little be proved to be as whatsoever it is which is most impossible And yet you say in the close of all † Cum nemo non experiatur se quando velit non actionem modò sed voluntatem immutare posse nemo vereatur asserere sibi cam cujus vim quotidiè sentit actionem exerit c. p. 20. That every man proves by his own experience that he can change his action yea and his will too when he pleaseth And therefore you forbid him to deny Free-will whose operation and force he daily feeleth within himself O brave Usher That is impossible to be proved which is daily proved by experience It is the fullest of Difficulties although the clearest and plainest thing and the most undeniable to be imagined Go thy wayes without a Peer both as a Disputant and a Divine I will not swinge you for your * p. 16. l. vit p. 17. l. 1. usque ad l. 7. false Latine False Latin pardoned in writing a period of no lesse then eight lines without a principal Verb to make it sense nor for your Ignorance in the use of the words † p. 17. l. 5.

Nor for saying 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 is the very Greek for wretched implying that you knew not the just Importance of the word nor yet for diverse other things which I have promised you not to mention but onely ask you why you say That no man hitherto hath been able to explain how humane liberty can consist with Divine prescience Salvo utriusque jure p. 20. Dare you write your self a Student without having studied so much as one of those many who have often and clearly performed that task which you say was never performed by any Not to speake of Latin writers Mr. Thorndike in English hath done it largely and Mr. Pierce long before had done it often If you have read his several Books why do you write against your knowledge If you never read them which is most likely since you never cited a Line from them but onely railed at them in general why raile you at that which you never read your meaning is that you your self are not able to conceive much lesse to explain how humane Liberty can consist with Gods Prescience Whereby you virtually confess that it cannot consist with Gods absolute Decrees of Election and Reprobation And so you must deny those decrees to be absolute because you hold the Free-will of man And again you must deny the Free-will of man because you hold those Decrees to be Absolute Well Sir Because the thing which you call a Latine Exercitation amounts to no more in effect then a Declaration of your ignorance how Free-will and Prescience are reconcileable this in God and that in man I will enlighten your understanding as Mr. Pierce his Books have enlightned mine And in order to this end I will not steal but fairely and thankfully onely borrow some of his Light All I shall do shall be to explain it to you in Latine that so in every respect I may fit my Remedy to your Disease If it chance toeffect the cure you will acknowledge me to be of all the men in the world Your surest friend in time of need M.

so to find out the meaning of Theophilus Churchman The taking up of citations at second hand of which I told your Brother Bagshaw is a generous fault in comparison of stealing the wit of other men with their very words too More than an hundred of such crimes you are already convicted of And therefore the fewer shall serve my Turne to shew the affinity of this second Pamphlet with your first But if you think otherwise I will convict you hereafter with many more The greatest Robberies are again committed upon that Learned Gentleman Mr. Morice but reserving those to the later end of the Indictment I begin with the sufferings of other men Mr. John Goodwin's Triumviri Theophilus Church-man The young Bear who intending to do his Master being asleep in the fields a courtesie by mauling a poor flie that troubled his rest strook her paw or talons into his head and slew him pag. 225. l. 26.

Secondly you say you read this passage in the English Translation of Plutarch's Lives p. 167. where by the way I observe that you read Greek Authors as women do and yet you know it is impossible that half the passage should be there for Plutarch told the naked story and did not apply it to the Bishop of Lincoln That you had from Dr. Heylin unless you can prove you are a witch 3. you say you know not if Doctor Heylin did quote it out of the same Author p. 170. And yet you know he quotes Plutarchs Greek in his margin which you could not but see when you stole the passage 4. you deny your having stoln another passage from Dr. White But look again on the * Mr. Pierce's Letter p. 288. parallel and then do you and the world judge Dr. White Mr. Hickman Memnon when a certein mercenary Souldier did with many bold and impure reproaches exclaim against Great Alexander lent him a blow with his Launce saying that he had hired him to fight against Alexander and not to rail Epist to Read bot of p.

Now Sir if your case is so deplorable in these very particulars which you chose to clear your self from amidst 109. what can you say in your behalf for having stoln no less than * Ibid. p. 286. twenty good lines together and many more than so too not by lines but whole pages yet Fifthly you plead not guilty p. 168. though but few lines before you pleaded guilty p. 167. your words being these that they may be well reckon'd amongst the impertinences and Errata of the Book Nay you call it a Peccadillo p. 163. pretty expressions of the thing So when Achan stole the wedge 't was but an Impertinency and when Rachel robbed Laban it was an Erratum And 109. Thests amount to no more than a Peccadillo It is a very good Jest to find you boasting in the Title-page of a Reply to Mr. Pierce and yet confessing afterwards that you never read Mr. Pierce's Book nor ever would read it p. 162. If you had you could not have called yours a Reply to it Nor is' t a wonder you gave your Pupils so strict a charge not to read it for so they might have been ashamed of having owned you for a Tutor You say Mr. Pierce by accusing you of theft did bear false witness p. 163. though he caught you in the Act no less than one hundred and nine times And you implicitly confess grent store was stolne by saying that some passages are not any ones else but Mr. Hickmans own p. 167. I suppose you mean the most stupid and railing passages which yet you may seem to have stolne from Billingsgate and then no part of the Book was yours though by patching up all materials you became Cobler unto the whole One part of your Dilemma p 163. is very true that Mr. Barlee had very falsely you should have said slanderously accused Mr. Pierce of being beholding to Fur Praedestinatus for some of his citations For Mr. P. did immediately shew the madness of that Invention in ten respects See Divine Philanth defend ch 3. p. 139. to p. 143. and Mr. Barlee hath since repented of it Whereupon he is return'd into the favour of Mr. P. as you may do I presume upon the very same Termes Never was there a writer more exact than Mr. Pierce in citing the Authors which he useth insomuch that many have thought him too punctual punctual even to superstition When first he quoted some of the Fathers as he found them quoted by famous Vossius he was careful to tell the Reader that he found them in Vossius first before he found the Truth of them in the Fathers themselves see and imitate Correct Copy p. 25. which yet he needed not have done but that his Christian simplicity was very great because the reading of those Fathers belonged to him as well as Vossius and considering his years I believe he had read them as much as Vossius The implicit excuse which you make for your self that having been accustom'd in the dayes of your minority to deal in Sentences Apothegmes and fragments you could not forbear it when you came to maturity p. 165 166. is no more to your advantage than it would be to a Cutpurse to tell the Judge he could not help his thievery having from a Child been inured to it Sins are never the better but the worse for being habitual and inveterate And that your Book is like Herodotus his head void of brains but fill'd with hony-combes you well confess by your application p. 167. 'T is strange you should confess you having stolne some things out of Canterburies Doom p. 168. in the very same page where you plead not guilty and therefore who will believe you when you deny your having rifled Mr. Prins Antiarminianisme Though you say you have witnesses you name not one and in such a negative you cannot possibly have any Dr. H. and Mr. P. beside my additional instances have proved what you have done But what you have not done besides as often as you have slept none can tell so well as you and they that watch you whilst you were sleeping 'T is very well that now at last having been taught by Mr. P. you acknowledge it is the odisse Deum the hating of God that is an action p. 172. But you know you were so ignorant when you writ your first Fardel as to call hatred an action p. 95. which a Fellow of Magd. Coll. should have known to be a Quality But from you who were so absolutely a stranger to Scholarship as to write extasis for ecstasis and 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 for 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 in a couple of passages which you filch'd from Master Goodwin we must not expect any skill in Legick therefore here I shall advise you only to cut off your Beard and return again to the Grammar School You end agreeably to the rest with an ill-made excuse For all the Reason which you render why you stole diverse things from Dr. Davenant Dr. Twisse is your being sometimes absent from the Vniversity As if you could not be honest in other places as well as Oxford which yet is known to be the usual place of your abode since the Time that you thought stolne Bread to be the sweetest I will therefore conclude with a memento that you were taught in the Church Catechisme to keep your hands from Picking and Stealing and your Tongue from evil speaking But so far have you been from the first that what you have read in Mr. Morice and other English Writers you have presently had at your fingers ends as if you were really an Adamite and thought all yours that you could lay your hands on And so far from the Second that your Tongue may be reckoned the most unruly member in all your Body Sir To tell you freely of your Estate is the greatest favour that man can do you To sooth you up in your course is to betray you to your self and act for Satan You cannot say I have been your Flatterer and therefore I hope you will take my plain dealing for a token that I am Your Friend M.
