heretofore pittifully observed by Anonimus his Agent whom he patronizeth and which I answered and now but the same again And his Advertisements on the History of King Charls not more nor lesse than petty unnecessary Cavils the Composers Correctors or Printers escapes which an ordinary Reader may amend And by comparison we may observe the Errors of his petty Apendix which I have not heretofore noted viz. Querit for texit not for non of ore for in ore Midsomer last for Midsomer 1657 Arch-Bishop of Canterbury for Bishop of St. Davids Blesh for Bl●●soe anno 1627 for 1629 Nassantiae for Nassoniae but three for three Dudlyes at the Valley for the Battel of the first for his changing of the first design VVillam for Millain Proviso for promise Seas for Scales the first for the last the least for them last and many more his pages not half way figured and yet see how he bestrides me if my feet but slip and so I leave him I am therefore at a stand with my self if I shall need to trace him any farther in my pursute after his sent which leaves so foul a favour ere I overtake him in the end He being hereby brought and arraigned sufficiently enough I conceive or leave him to the Judgement of the wiser sort who have good cause to blame me for exercising their patience with these unnecessary Cavils the Remains are no other than such like which render him ridiculous to the Reader and may mark me for a fool if I follow him any farther for the present having some occasions of business that better concern me at this time Vnlesse for some satisfaction to the Reader it may be convenient for me to Anatomise his Preface only or short Survey twelve pages to his Advertisements on the History of King Charls And therein his grave censure of that whole History at a clap being no lesse than 1150 large Folioes So that sayes he no sense can be picked out of it but by circumstance and conjecture only which defects he tells us he had observed in the Histories of Queen Mary of Scotland and her Son King James published without the name of any Author but now laid claim to by the History of King Charls p. 34. His nonsense is thus to be understood viz. That he would have observed the same defects in the former Histories had he known them to be Sandersons but they were published without the name of any Author till now that they are laid claim to by the Author of the History of King Charls this he would seem to say But in earnest this his first Advertisement is so false as that I expected his craving pardon of the gentle Reader in his numerous Errata annexed to this his petty Pamphlet by which Errata he appeears to have conned over his Advertisements for to be published compleat and yet therein I find not this untruth amended A wonder to me that none could read to him the Authors name VVilliam Sanderson in words at length subscribed not only to the Title pages of those Histories but also to this of King Charls And then to confirm his bold Censure of the defects in the former of Queen Mary King Iames he refers us to a Learned Iudicious friend of his but shames to name him Nor is it ne●essary he being belike of the Doctors gang and may not be known And also he refers u● to the Observations upon Persons and Passages in the Histories of the Queen of Scots and King James p. 35. Indeed these Observations were published without a name or literal mark were sentenced of all the Readers to be mean and scur●ulous Yet the Author of those Histories VVilliam Sanderson by name vouchsafed to give Answer to that Libel And as concerning that Answer the Doctor meeting me in the street at London his own invitation and his guide conducted me into a Lane and through a narrow passage or Entry up to his Chamber where he begged of me my Answer to that Libel which I sent him and I professe to all the world I cannot of my self find out that place So then his Tale p. 41. of my finding him out at his Lodging and what he insists thereon is most untrue But hereby it appears that the Doctor could not be ignorant of the Author of that Answer and of those Histories and ever since the Libeller is not known and it is like he being consciencious of his Crime d●rst never reply thereto nor hath any Person owned it till now that Doctor Peter He●lin the Grand Examiner and Surveyor General takes upon him to be suspected that Libeller and quotes the Libel verbatim to strengthen his impertinent Advertisements with malitious calumnies to boot on the whole bodies of those Histories so that if the Doctor cannot cleer himself of being the Pa●er of that Libel he now appears plainly to be the Patron and yet I must remember what I mentioned before of him concerning those two Histories of the Queen of Scots and King Iames viz. I cannot herein sayes the Doctor find any malitious or dangerous untruths destructive to the Church of England or to the fame and honor of Prelates or the Regular Clergy Which Histories are divided into several volumes and according to the many years Reign of these Soveraigns and their times of Action must therefore necessarily be very large viz. that of the Queen of Scots and her Son c. 262 large Folioes the other of King Iames 338. Folioes and this of King Charls no lesse than 1150. Folioes Yet we find them in a word rubbed over by the Doctor with the stains of a p●●u●ent Censure and yet again this self same Doctor concludes in few words and to render himself reproachful for what he had spoken before or shall say hereafter he avers But to reduce these Items to a summa totalis as ●o the Histories considering their length there is much which deserves to be laid up in the Registers of succeeding ages p. 39. And as to the History of King Charls I cannot but acknowledg sayes he that he hath done more right to the King and the Church of England than could be expected in th●se times V●inam sic semper errasset p. 40. so saith Doctor Peter Heylin Testis Temporum the grand Examinor of all Scripturients by his Examen Historicum but as others have censured him Dr. Hackwell by name so say I The condition of the Man being such as his words hardly passe for a commendation or a slaunder his testimony as to the truth is not valuable for or against any Man or any writing And at the casting up of his Preface or Survey concerning himse●f an●●is engagi●g against me he sayes that I have beat him with the Spit and basted him all over with gall and vinegar the occasion of our quarrelling p. 42. ● but I answer that as to the truth of our difference I have before in my Post-haste Reply very faithfully and ingenuously set down the occasion to be otherwise and need not here to be repeated it being summ'● up to my hand in his writings viz. his own pragm●●icalnesse and love of revenge And this with modesty I may averr whatever his malice can imagine to the contrary that these Histories sell well holding up their first good price and thereby are valued in the commodious and profitable vent with the general acceptation of those that pay for them an argument sufficient against Dr. Heylins Censure But what occasion he intends forthwith to devise of quarreling with other Authors we must expect some formal reasons no doubt He being about as we are informed to Animadvertise on the large volumes and elaborate work of Mr. Fox his Books of Martyrs for the Doctor could never indure those stories And that being soon dispatched then we are to be assured of his Advertisements on Sir VValter Raughleys large History of the VVorld And afterwards he resolves to publish a set form of Apology in excuse of his own works And in fine as the best at last he will examine himself because as he saith of himself his former dayes have been evill which all good men wish to be amended And so Good Night Peter The End * Doctor Heylins desturbance of Doctor Prideaux * Informat ex Arti●ul 20. affi●m Informer Doctor Prideaux * Doctor Heylin Informer Docto● Prideaux 〈…〉 Doctor Prideaux Protestation * Such as proceeded Doctors under him of whom Doctor Heylin had been newly one Doctor Hackwells Character of Doctor Heylin 〈…〉 Append pa. 142.

from his name Metallanus where the Latin writers mention him and Maitland the Scotish writers call him and here the Riddle is resolved Yet another ten folioes before viz. fol. 139. Fol. 139. History of Queen Elizabeth writ by Martin he sayes Martin writ no farther than King Henry 8 the rest possibly is clapt too by the Publisher of that History being Camdens Annals of that Queen p. 6. If the Doctor be not mistaken in his possibly yet I am right to intitle the whole History to Martin whose name is to the Title page as the Author be the Publisher whomsoever the Doctor can find out Fol. 156. The Leaguers for some Justice in their Rebellion elect Cardinal Bourbon a degree nearer the Crown than Navarr No sayes the Doctor not so neer p. 6. and spends half a page to prove it when in truth the word as is wanting as a degree nearer that is the Rebels would have him to be so believed to countenance their siding with him Fol. 161. Sir Thomas Randolph bred a Civilian taken from Pembroke College in Oxon Not so sayes he how then say I That which is called Pembroke College was in that time called Broadgates p. 7. a pretty quibble Nay then the Doctor is out also for Sir Thomas Randolph was not bred a Civilian taken from Pembroke College in Oxon nor from Broadgates say I Tom Randolph was indeed but Sir Thomas Randolph was made Knight some yeers after at Whitehall Or thus Iulius Caesar came out of France into England Not so neither but came out of Gallia into Britanie Or thus Dr. Peter Heylin was a poor Scholar in Magdalene College in Oxon. Not so sayes he tell truth say I Peter Heylin indeed was but Dr. Peter Heylin was never a poor Scholar there O Sir I cry your Doctorship mercy the Iesuite that taught distinctions was but a Dunce to you Doctor Fol. 189. The other Title was of the Infant of Spain he sayes that I leave out the most material Title viz. that is to say from the Daughter of Iohn a Gaunt D●ke of Lancaster p. 7. dear Mr. Doctor how prove you this viz. that is to say the most material Titlo However I do not leave it out for speaking of the treasonable designs against the right succession of Queen Elizabeth and her lawful Heir mentioning several Titles in Dolemans Book devised by the Jesuite Parsons The other Title say I was of the Infant of Spain and therein they use their Catholike Doctrine to make it up with monstrous lies First from Constance daughter to the Conqueror c. though our Chronicles agree that she dyed without issue Secondly From Elynor daughter to Henry 2. maried to Alphonsus King of Castile Thirdly And descends from Blanch his daughter Fourthly From Beatrice daughter of Henry 3. of England Fifthly From the Portugal family of Iohn a Gaunt Duke of Lancaster Herein I expresse but what the Jesuite Parsons published falsely and mali●iously to the prejudice of Queen Elizabeth and her lawful descendent and the fifth Title from Iohn a Gaunt answers the Doctors Advertisement and is not left out but why Mr. Doctor should joyn with the Iesuite and assist him with one most material Title when none but Tray●ors could justly approve of any Material or lawful T●tle but that of King Iames of Scotland doth somewhat discover himself Fol. 191. Hawkins Drake Baskervile fire some Towns in the lsle of Dominica they fired sayes he some Towns in Hispaniola and that Town of Dominica but not on the Isle p. 7. You are misinformed Geographer that Town is named Do●i●go and not Dominica but I say again they fired Towns in the Isle of Dominica one of the Charybes and although you say that those Islands had enmity with the Spaniard it is no absolute reason but that they may deserve hostility and firing by ill usage of Strangers which they did to the English thinking them Pirates for so sayes the Pamphlet of that voyage published at their return an 1597. which I can produce How now Hook here look back about 40 Folioes it seems his Clerk Amanuensis overpassed this of great consequence another Misnomer Fol. 157. Carmardin for Carw●rdin p. 7 Nay then the Doctor must excuse me if I tell his mistake this Gentleman was neer Kinsman to my Father he discovered the Estate of the Customs to Queen Elizabeth he was conversant in my Fathers Family I have seen him sign his name very often and can produce his letters Carmardin Fol. 229. Sir Thomas Erskin created Earl of Kelly and by degrees Knight of the Garter No sayes he first of the Garter and then Earl p. 8. Fol. 238. Sir Iohn Danvers for Sir Cha●ls p. 8. O● Sir you are mistaken his name was Sir Iohn and not Sir Charls Fol. 293. The Lor● Norris for Sir Iohn Norris sayes he p. 8. Nay then we must be overtroubled with the Doctor for I said that the Deputy of Ireland erects Mount Norris there in memory of that gallant Iohn Lord Norris under w●om he first exercised Arms. 'T is true that when he first exxercised Arms the ot●er was but Sir Fol. 261. Queen Elizabeth gave up the Ghost to God on that day of her birth from whom she had it Not so sayes he for she was born on the Eve of the Nativity but died on the Eve of the Annunciation p. 9. But I say again that she was born and dyed on the Eves of the Annunciation of the Virgin Mary Another monstrous mistake and then the Doctor will have done as to this History but we must fetch a freak backward whither think you 253. folioes ev'n to fol. 8. which escaped his helpers but he will have it in Fol. 8. Queen Mary of Scotland left her Kingdome to her Son who was born a King Not so sayes he King Iames was born in Iune and crowned in July p. 9. 'T is true too He was born in Iune an 1566. and stiled King at his birth but because his Mother was compelled to quit the Regencie to her Sons Guardians and they to make her Resignation the more sure crowned him afterwards And we know that Coronation is but the ceremony of succession Kings successive are by birth so before Coronation And King Iames in one of his speeches tells the Parliament of England that he was not to be taught by them he being an old King as antient as his birth-day And these are all the mistakes and every one that this Doctor of Divinity can find out to Advertise And thus have we been harrased this History suffering under censure in terms possitive by his Preface but how prooved in his Examinations of 262 large folioes and how criminal we submit to the Readers judgement And truly in my own conscience I stand justified for a faithful Historian excusable in those particulars which he hath marked for grand Errors when in so great a body he is not able to find out any other blemish And yet these Histories have been
