A NEW And cleer Discovery OF THE TRVE AND PROPER NATVRAL CAVSE OF THE EBBING AND FLOWING OF THE MAIN SEA Convincingly held forth both from Scripture and Reason So as any Rational man may easily apprehend the proper Cause of its fluent motion And that it is not the Moon as some have imagined and gone about to prove Written by ELLIS BRADSHAWE of the Parish of Boulton in the County of Lancaster Husbandman PSAL. 97.4 5. His Lightnings lightned the world the earth saw it and trembled The hils melted like wax at the presence of the Lord at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth All thy works praise thee oh Lord Therefore even I also will magnifie thy Name for it is holy Yea let the heavens and the earth praise him the seas and every thing that moveth therein Psal ●9 34 LONDON Printed by G●rtrude Dawson for Thomas Brewster at the Signe of the three Bibles under Mildreds Church in the Poultry 1649. THE Authors Apologie in Respect he is but an Husband-man and unlearned in the Tongues to excuse himselfe of Presumption herein to the Christian Reader CHRISTIAN READER If when thou hast read these few lines thou canst say as it is prophesied Isa 52.15 That that which hath not been told thee thou dost hereby see and that which thou hadst not heard thou dost now consider Let it stop thy mouth from speaking evill of the unworthy Instrument and thy heart from thinking him too presumpteous for appearing in Print and undertaking the discovery of such truths as neither thou nor others that are now living on the face of the earth for ought thou knowest have discovered before Refuse not knowledge because tendered unto thee by so unworthy an Instrument they are too squemish that refuse good meat because presented in an earthen vessell 2 Cor 4.7 for ought thou knowest it may be done of purpose that the excellency of power may be of God and not of man And they that are taught in the word should rather communicate unto him that teacheth them in all good things then despise and reproach him returning evill for good hatred for love this is bad requitall but not a little common now adayes But however thou judgest or requitest the Instrument yet give God the glory of what thou learnest else thou also despisest even the fountain of knowlege who is justly worthy of praise and honour yea and will have the glory as so the Instrument desires that both wholly and freely it might be ascribed for ever Amen But it may be objected that this is not the first of my appearing in Print but that I have also presumed to write a Book called An Husbandmans Harrow to pull down the Ridges of the Presbyteriall Government and to smooth a little the Independent c. And therefore an Apology to excuse my presumption might have been therein also held forth to the Reader as well as now considering that in the Title thereof I conclude so presumptuously as to call my arguments contained therein both new and unanswerable to that purpose and such as I have also proved to be like teeth of steel that will pull down the Ridges before they break or bend I answer that I intended that very Title to serve to excuse me instead of any further Apology For thus I thought that any rationall man might easily gather to wit That if in my apprehension I had any arguments to so good a purpose as the reconciling of such hot disputes and that betwixt Brethren That might truly and properly be called new having never yet been propos'd by others on either party I thought it might well excuse me For who is it but he will be content to hear yea and enquire of any man be he learned or unlearned that can tell him Newes and especially good Newes and such as may be usefull both to himself and others yea such as may possibly guide him into the right way when he is at a stand and knows not which way to ●urne in the dark night but may possibly be endangered to fall into some pit And if there be not such Arguments contained in that Book when any man sheweth me that they are old and needles having bin formerly proposd by such or such on either party then I shall confesse th●t I presumed too far Or when any man hath answ●red them from Scripture grounds I shall also confesse that I presumed too far in calling them una●swerable But they are not yet answered nor proved to be old nor uselesse and unprofitable and therefore I as yet think not any worse of them then is exprest in the Title But it is my desire that such who think me p●esumptuous would but suspend their censure till they be answered by way of contradiction from Scripture grounds and then let them censure as they find cause But they might doe well in the mean time to take the Apostles advice and judge nothing before the time F●r if I therein erred my errour as yet remaineth with me Iob 19.4 And if they know wherein they might doe well to let me k●ow mine errour as Iob 6.24 Yea let them teach me I shall hold my tongue and cause me to underst●nd wherein I have erred Yea I shall also thank them for their just rebuke I shall love them better then if they hold their peace and smother my faults which they plainly see And however they deem yet this is the truth that if I had not thought those Scripturall Arguments both new and unanswerable I had not presumed to appear in Print Neither doe I purpose through the grace of God to presume to appeare any further in Print concerning any subject but wherein I am confident that I hold forth something of speciall use to such a purpose that no man else hath published in print or held forth before nor it may be considered or thought so far in that respect but that all that read it may in something or other be instructed thereby if they will consider as they ought to doe without prejudicate conceits And yet I purpose God willing to appear in Pri●t concerning divers subjects the Lord assisting me as I hope he will And therefore doe but give the glory to the God of Truth of every truth thou learnest though it be by never so weak an instrument as so thou oughtest to doe And let me beare the shame of what I write presumptuously and without a cause and ground from Scripture as so I justly deserve And in the mean time accept me as thy loving friend and brother in the Lord Ellis Bradshaw A new and clear discovery of the true and proper and natural cause of the ebbing and flowing of the maine Sea THE great Lord of Heaven and Earth that hath made all things for his own sake requireth praise and will have glory from all his works Psal 148.
