Printed in the Year 1673 THis Narrative is for the Unbyassed Minds to look into whether Baptists or others in which short Narrative by all such may be seen the Rice and Root of the Baptists in Kent And the Face of an Envious spirit ruling in Richard Hobbs Pastor of the Baptists in Dover as he pretends himself to be with all concerned with him in it except he has beguil'd any to set their Names to an Envious Story of one Charles Bayley Ten Years by past to which Story there is Nine Names but five of them dead for several Years and C.B. of whom the Story is was by the Quakers deny'd ten Years since and so is to this Day as in this Narrative will appear to the Authors shame because they have known he was deny'd for several years as their own Consciences will testifie against them This they joyn'd to another like it self at the Re-printing of it which before was sufficiently Answered and the Forgery therein detected to all unbyassed Minds READER I Hearing of and this day seeing a Scandalous Narrative from the Baptist-People of Dover at the reading of which I could not but very much strange that men should so much lose their Reason as men that as soon as they have a little Liberty given them to abuse it so as to imploy themselves in such dirty work once and again of Nine and Ten Years by past and so to make themselves a Scorn to Fools and the innocent Principle of the Quakers the Worlds Talk whom they hate as Ahab did Micaiah and therefore is their work like themselves whose Envy destroys their Reason which is the Cause they Print such things as are filled with Mischiefs and no good to any though such as envy and hate the Light of Jesus and perfect Way of the Lord and so bring not their deeds to it may rejoyce thereat The tendency of which Narrative was of C.

B. was added in the Reprinting of the same as the Baptists in subtilty thought or might think Therefore it was something upon me to give forth a true Relation according to my knowledge of C.B. and his being denyed long since by us and so not to be by Wise Men accounted of us And also for the Truth 's sake to make a sure Discovery of the Rice of the Baptists in the County of Kent who shew what spirit they are of by their works in Print that they should not be lifted up and glory in the flesh above their sphere and so preach and affirm they know not what unto the people which are more simple some of them and cleaner in heart and mind before they are Dipped then ever they come to be again after once they are proselited into their Yoak of Bondage and therefore is this plain Discourse for the Simple sake given forth The 9th day of the 5th Moneth called July 1672 L.
