A47155	A just vindication of my earnest expostulation, added to my book, called The Antichrists and Sadduces detected, &c. directed to the pious and learned, in the Church of England, and among the dissenters, against the trifling exceptions of Edward Pennington, which he calls Some observations, etc.	Keith, George, 1639?-1716.	1696 (1696)	Wing K178; ESTC R14235	8,105	7

a_o just_a vindication_n of_o my_o earnest_a expostulation_n add_v to_o my_o book_n call_v the_o antichrist_n and_o sadducee_n detect_v etc._n etc._n direct_v to_o the_o pious_a and_o learned_a in_o

the_o like_a false_a accusation_n be_v the_o best_a armour_n these_o my_o adversary_n have_v to_o fight_v against_o i_o as_o also_o his_o false_o charge_v i_o with_o impose_v fond_a notion_n and_o

have_v sufficient_o prove_v they_o guilty_a of_o in_o the_o meeting_n at_o turners-hall_n 11_o of_o the_o four_o month_n 1696._o and_o in_o the_o print_a narrative_n of_o the_o proceed_n there_o i_o

these_o passage_n prove_v that_o i_o do_v judge_v there_o be_v none_o among_o they_o all_o pious_a and_o learned_a for_o indeed_o i_o be_v never_o so_o uncharitable_a this_o man_n who_o will_v needs_o print_v book_n have_v need_n to_o go_v to_o school_n to_o learn_v that_o from_o particular_n to_o the_o universal_a the_o consequence_n be_v not_o good_a what_o i_o say_v against_o the_o philosophy_n then_o teach_v in_o the_o college_n of_o that_o nation_n many_o learned_a and_o pious_a man_n in_o both_o nation_n will_v assent_v to_o be_v true_a to_o wit_n the_o jesuit_n philosophy_n for_o that_o be_v it_o which_o be_v then_o teach_v and_o which_o i_o learn_v almost_o word_n by_o word_n out_o of_o jesuit_n author_n and_o since_o that_o time_n both_o that_o college_n and_o i_o suppose_v all_o the_o other_o college_n in_o both_o nation_n have_v change_v that_o sort_n of_o philosophy_n out_o of_o their_o dislike_n to_o it_o as_o i_o myself_o have_v do_v before_o i_o be_v a_o quaker_n but_o what_o if_o i_o shall_v blame_v the_o philosophy_n that_o be_v now_o teach_v in_o all_o the_o college_n be_v there_o no_o other_o good_a learning_n but_o that_o call_v philosophy_n he_o have_v but_o little_a learning_n that_o so_o argue_v what_o i_o then_o say_v against_o school_n and_o university_n be_v against_o the_o ill_a constitution_n and_o great_a abuse_n in_o they_o at_o that_o time_n

in_o that_o very_a page_n i_o do_v own_o there_o be_v some_o bishop_n in_o queen_n mary_n day_n to_o who_o the_o lord_n have_v a_o regard_n according_a to_o their_o faithfulness_n to_o what_o they_o

great_a lording_n and_o tyrannical_a imposition_n in_o george_n whitehead_n and_o william_n penn_n with_o their_o lording_n brethren_n of_o the_o yearly_o meet_v 1695._o as_o i_o never_o find_v in_o any_o of_o the_o bishop_n either_o english_a or_o scottish_a for_o by_o none_o of_o they_o be_v i_o ever_o excommunicate_v but_o by_o the_o former_a i_o be_v excommunicate_v for_o bear_v my_o
