A31630	A rod for the fool's-back, or, Dr. Chamberlin and his proposal vindicated from the foul aspersions of a dirty, scurrilous scribler, who pretends to answer the paper of the comparison, between the doctor's proposal and Mr. Briscoe's.	Chamberlen, Hugh.	1694 (1694)	Wing C1887; ESTC R32614	12,126	17

when_o every_o treasurer_n or_o man_n in_o office_n do_v the_o same_o and_o that_o honest_o too_o i_o can_v tell_v but_o this_o impudent_a booby_n do_v not_o know_v what_o he_o will_v be_v at_o oh_o

what_o be_v they_o worse_o for_o it_o why_o may_v not_o they_o go_v to_o he_o as_o well_o as_o to_o any_o of_o the_o under_o officer_n of_o the_o exchequer_n i_o suppose_v they_o will_v not_o stand_v much_o on_o that_o who_o they_o go_v to_o so_o as_o they_o can_v receive_v their_o money_n whenever_o they_o go_v or_o send_v for_o it_o for_o therein_o lie_v the_o stress_n of_o the_o business_n but_o after_o all_o though_o the_o doctor_n have_v lay_v down_o such_o a_o method_n in_o his_o proposal_n for_o himself_o to_o be_v mr._n workman_n and_o to_o have_v the_o payment_n of_o the_o

to_o follow_v his_o rule_n any_o more_o than_o they_o be_v to_o do_v as_o mr._n briscoe_n do_v propose_v or_o to_o raise_v no_o more_o or_o less_o money_n than_o twenty_o million_o but_o it_o be_v leave_v to_o their_o discretion_n to_o alter_v what_o they_o please_v to_o make_v who_o they_o will_v treasurer_n and_o to_o give_v the_o doctor_n something_o or_o nothing_o in_o consideration_n of_o his_o proposal_n however_o it_o be_v convenient_a and_o necessary_a that_o some_o sort_n of_o a_o method_n shall_v be_v lay_v before_o they_o or_o else_o how_o shall_v they_o know_v what_o to_o do_v with_o any_o proposal_n well_o then_o since_o both_o the_o doctor_n and_o briscoe_n proposal_n be_v before_o the_o house_n you_o may_v ask_v a_o parliament_n man_n in_o case_n he_o be_v or_o be_v not_o in_o debt_n which_o he_o will_v rather_o choose_v the_o doctor_n that_o will_v supply_v he_o with_o 6000_o l._n or_o mr._n briscoes_n that_o can_v raise_v but_o 2000_o l._n on_o the_o same_o

of_o what_o have_v be_v say_v before_o and_o not_o worth_a a_o read_n only_o this_o be_v to_o be_v observe_v of_o he_o that_o billingsgate_n can_v hardly_o match_v his_o in_o ill_a language_n as_o for_o mr._n briscoe_n by_o what_o have_v be_v say_v i_o think_v his_o behaviour_n do_v real_o deserve_v a_o reproof_n which_o i_o shall_v give_v he_o in_o a_o latin_a sentence_n sat_n poenae_fw-la

another_o of_o mr._n impudence_n lybels_n which_o he_o have_v reprint_v with_o a_o impudent_a preamble_n on_o the_o top_n of_o it_o by_o which_o i_o perceive_v that_o mr._n briscoe_n and_o the_o

that_o the_o doctor_n be_v not_o that_o man_n of_o sense_n he_o will_v have_v the_o world_n believe_v he_o to_o be_v i_o desire_v he_o will_v be_v please_v to_o let_v this_o paper_n likewise_o lie_v
