than Explications adapted to his Private Designs and his general one * Retrack p. 42. I submit all that I have at any time given forth in Word Writ or Print by way of Doctrine in Religious Matters to the Test Touch-stone and Rule of the Scriptures Renouncing Revoking Retracting Disowning and Denying whatever is contained in any of my former or latter Books that doth not perfectly agree with the Holy Scriptures is no more as I verily believe than any Quaker will readily do Had G. K. been really convinced he had acted the Part of a Sophister in defending the Quakers Opinion by putting false Glosses on the Scriptures or by using any inconclusive Arguments he should as I conceive have been as particular in his Retractations as he was in his Vindications of them and ingenuously have demonstrated wherein each particular Perversion of the Scriptures and every Numerical Sophism did consist Till this is done his former now the Quakers Arguments are as good a Defence for them against him or any other Adversary as formerly when he was one of them 'T is not enough in my Thoughts for G. K. when his own Arguments are urged against him in general to say I have Retracted I have Retracted them and that 't is great Impudence in any to object against me what I have long since Retracted We do not consider them now only as G. K's but as our own Reasons and might have used them had he never been known nor any of his Books seen by us and we may presume to use any or all the Arguments which he hath formerly Printed in our Defence let him mutter never so much till he or some of his Adherents shall shew their Inconclusiveness I am sensible Reader that many are perchance thou art also of opinion that G. K. hath discovered monstrous Errors amongst the Quakers that were never detected before and indeed he seems to insinuate as much in his Advertisement to his Fourth Narrative by saying It is my purpose to detect and discover Gross Errors and Antichristian Principles c. Whereby thou mightest be apt to inferr he was an Original and not a Transcriber To undeceive thee in this matter I shall subject to thy Consideration what one tho' I might what one Hundred of their Opposers said of them above Forty Years since conceiving thou canst discover Ex ungue Leonem And that thou may'st the more easily perceive the Harmony not to say Plagiasm of G. K. with one Jonathan Clapham who writ a Book stiled A Full Discovery and Confutation of the Wicked and Damnable Doctrines of the Quakers c. and dedicated it to Oliver Cromwel then Lord Protector Printed Anno 1656. I shall set Eight of G. K.'s Ten Calumnies as they are Printed in an Advertisement prefixed to his Fourth Narrative in a Column opposite to what J. C. also falsly affirmed that their Agreement may the easier be perceived J. C. in the abovesaid Book pretends to prove the Quakers guilty of 1. Being Enemies to the Holy Scriptures 2. Denying Christ come in the Flesh his Death Resurrection c. 3. Denying the Doctrine of the Trinity 4. Holding Equality with God and the Soul to be one Being with God 5. Corrupting the Doctrine of Justification 6. Denying the Resurrection of the Body last Judgment Heaven and Hell 7. Being Enemies to all the Ordinances of Jesus Christ 8. Being no Friends to the Lord's day making all days alike 9. Pretending to Miracles 10. Being no truly Mortified Persons notwithstanding Pretences thereunto and how Popish Monks have out-stripped them therein 11. Destroying the True Doctrine of Sanctification 12. Being the common Sink of all the Heresies of our Times and how they agree with former Hereticks in many Particulars and are Enemies to all Civility and good Manners and to avoid them as Pernicious Enemies to the Souls of Men and to have no Communion with them c. G. K. Insinuates that the Errors he intends to discover the Quakers guilty of * In his Advertisment to his 4th Narrative are 1. Concerning the Scriptures 2. Concerning Christ's Incarnation his Soul and Body and Blood his coming to Judgment at the last day 3. Concerning the Holy Trinity 4. Concerning the Soul 5. Concerning Justification 6. Concerning the Resurrection 7. Concerning Outward Baptism and the Supper 8. Concerning doing Servile Work on the Lord's day The Analogy that here is between the Contents of G. K's Fourth Narrative and J. Clapham's Book is so conspicuous that some may be induced to think he borrowed a great deal of his Darkness from this Book in composing his last Narrative But waving that 't is undeniable that the Principal Errors pretended which G. K. and others now advance against the Quakers are mostly contained in this Treatise of J. C. If so it consequentially follows that they were forged long before G. K. was a Quaker How then it should happen seeing these Objections were so publickly Printed that he should live as now he pretends Thirty Years in Ignorance of them is so surprising that it gains little Credit with me how much it doth with thee I shall not determine In fine It may be obvious to any that have the Opportunity of reading our old Adversary's Books that there is little now objected against the Quakers but what is a Reiteration of things falsly affirmed of them and answered by them Thirty or Forty Years since If G. K. who is by some thought to have made the greatest Discoveries of their Errors should have his Writings deplumed of all the Feathers which his Envious Predecessors have made use of against them his Circumstances would not be much unlike that of the Crow in the Fable and under the same Predicament may be comprehended most of the Modern Writers against them As can be demonstrated by thy Sincere Friend D. P. London Septemb. 4. 1700. Proteus Redivivus OR The TURNER of Turner's-Hall Truly Represented c. THAT Persons who have been Banished a Society whether Civil or Religious for their Irregularities should afterwards use their utmost Efforts to excite the Enemies of such a Communion to disturb its Peace is as History relates so natural to Exiles that I am subject to imagine few will be surprized either to hear or see G. K. so Sedulous in perverting the Quaker's Books violating their Sense and ridiculing their Persons when they have a true Idea of the real Motives which induced him to be so maliciously Clamorous against them It was not my Design to have concerned my self in this publick Controversie neither do I now intend to go much farther than I am actually concerned would G. K. have answered my Letter delivered to him or given me a Meeting as he promised or Personally acknowledged he was Mistaken and had not designedly mis-represented my Words But seeing this could not be obtained to undeceive his Reader I shall here expose to his view and consideration a brief Account of the Substance of the Discourse that passed between
