in Grammer or in Logick let Divinity alone Rhetoricall arguments have no strength but as they may be reduced to Logick Surely if he have any such meanings in his arguments that Logick cannot finde out I may be mistaken in them and such is the sence of some of them for by rules of Logick they have no sense at all as I have made plainly appeare but let me tell Mr Tombes his generall charges be illegall and not allowable in any civill commerce and costs are justly awarded and losse of his cause against any that layeth onely generall charges in declaration against an adversary as your neighbour-Lawyers will tell you you are bound in common right to give me satisfaction and convict me of these mistakes when you tell the world that knowe not what Logicke Grammer and Divinity meaneth that my booke is nothingelse but such mistakes or else men of judgement must condemne Master Tombes for a senslesse ignorant rayler but let Master Tombes candidly shew any mistakes in Logicke or any of these on which the state of the question doth depend and I shall love him and thanke him for his labour Mr Tombes telleth me that I end with a challenge to him but he maketh more account of his time then to answer my wild notions truly it seemeth my notions are too wild for him to catch such as will cast their rider if he be an Antepaedobaptist If he had let them alone and not rayled at them he might have chosen whether he would have answered them or no but now he is bound in reason and charity to make his generall charges good in particular Answer them perhaps he will not because he cannot then better words would have becomm'd him He will not answer my challenge he dealeth very plainly with the world therein I challenged him not to answer my booke but to produce some argument from Scripture or sound reason that shall reasonably conclude from the words without any adding or substracting which may agree with the sense of the words produced This challenge he refuseth which in plaine termes is to affirme that he will never argue against Infant-baptisme either from Scripture or sound reason but he will adde or diminish something from them wherein if he be as good as his word he will keep his old custome He further telleth me that he will not answer my booke unlesse he have time to write a booke to make sport withall surely I did not write my booke with that levity of spirit to make Master Tombes sport but vindicate truth and to confute his errour but if he will needs dance I make no question but I shall make him dance naked wlthout any ragge of truth or reason to cover his shame from the view of all the world Last of all Master Tombes doth charme me to hold my peace and scoffeth at Divinity schooles which if Master Tombes and I had I confesse we should both write better but in the meane time I shall make a shift to write well enough to finde Master Tombes his vanities if he write no better then yet he hath done and as for holding my peace for Syons sake I cannot as long as any Antipaedobaptists dare so boldly out-face the truth Postscript HAving committed this answer to the presse I thought good to acquaint my Reader with some more confirmation that a participle may be rendred by First Scotus pag. 681. telleth us that the participle may be rendred by the gerund in do which is rendred in English by and the translatours of the English Bible have translated participles by Math. 6.27 which of you by taking care 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 and in Rom. 12.20 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 in so doing which is all one by so doing So gentle Reader if I be a foole for saying that the participle may be rendred by I am not so alone nor without rule and reason to walke by FINIS

represent to the common view without entring into the state of the question requiring it or considering the strength of the arguments that prove it or the Scriptures that evince it whatsoever I have affirmed in my booke that you have not answered I shall endevour to make good when I shall receive a just call so to do In the meane time I addresse my selfe to answer what Master Tombes further saith against me Having repeated sundry passages of my booke he falleth upon some small confutation his words are Nor doe I thinke the principall grounds of his new fancy will satisfie that Matth. 28.19 is thus to be expounded make Disciples by baptizing and teaching them whereas he himselfe sundry times readeth it better make Disciples of all Nations baptizing them and it is vainly alleadged that by is implyed in the participiall expression any more then 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 must be expounded he met them by saying or Math. 27.55 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 they followed by ministering unto him and I said justly Examen pag. 127. this conceipt is so absurd that I presume none that hath any Wit will entertain it though Master Hussey say pag. 6. I thinke if ever a man were out of his Wit it was here but I shall be willing the Assembly judge whether of us two need sayle to Anticyra to purge our braines After a long collection of many words here and there in my booke which he representeth as absurd whereas my new conceipts as he hath observed them are sundrie and have their severall grounds which he concealeth he saith the principall grounds of my conceipt is that the 28. of Math. 19. ought to be expounded make Disciples by baptizing them though I sundry times read it better I never read the words so but it is true in the stating the question I did take the liberty of an answerer to expound them so make Disciples baptizing them make Disciples by baptizing them which I said was implied in the participiall expression wherein I am confident the best Grammarians will beare me out Clenard medit Gracanic●… pag. 281.40 participium varie redditur nune adversum quiddam indicans nunc causam explicans preinde quae participiae Gracia efferuntur nos latiui●ate donavimus per ejusmedi conjunctionem quae commodissime facit ad sensum The participle ye see is variously rendred sometimes it doth declare the cause and if the participle do expresse the cause then the cause may be expounded by the word by and if in rendering Greeke into Latine we may expresse the Greeke participle by any conjunction that the sense will be are why may we not expresse it by a preposition that the sense will beare the word conjunction in some latitude of Language may be called a preposition a word joyned to fill up the sense which when the participle doth signifie the cause as here it may the formall cause of making Disciples why may it not be rendred by by scire est per causam scire I said it might signifie modum agendi this I have liberty to doe as an answerer to interpret Scriptute as I please if I doe it as the words will not beare Master Tombes hath his liberty to confute it by an argument but see how Master Tombes doth confute it by alleadging two places of Scripture where he conceiveth the participle may not conveniently be rendred by by now see the strength of this confutation participium saith Clenard varie redditur a participle is variously rendred the participle cannot be rendred by by in Mr Tombes his assigned places therefore no where therefore not in the place by me interpreted this is to take away Clenards rule and the variety of rendering participles if participles be variously rendred then in some places they are rendred one way in other places another or else there can be no variety Master Tombes therefore must finde out some better argument to prove that the participle may not be rendred by by besides that I said the participle might signifie modum agendi and even in the places alleadged by Mr Tombes the participles doe signifie the manner of doing Jesus met them saying all hayl doth not this saying all hail enter into the manner of the congresse if the meeting of any 2 persons should be historically related would not the history be lame if their conference were left out for that of Mat. 27.55 they followed him ministering unto him doth not this ministering unto him signifie the manner of their following him that they followed him not directing him that had been as guides or masters but ministering as friends or servants helping him to such things as he stood in need of 〈◊〉 doing such things fo● him as he required Masters doe use to follow their servants to looke to them in their worke and servants their masters to minister unto them and these followings doe differ modo agendi they are different followings but I am not so streightly tyed up that if in this place the participle do signifie by that it must so signifie in all places but Master Tombes saith that it was so feolish that none would entertaine it that hath any Wit to which I said in my book that Master Tomb●s notwithstanding he had sayd none would entertaine it that hath any Wit yet he proveth it no better then by saying if this were true they need onely baptize them and not teach them notwithstanding Christ commanded both to baptize them and teach them and for this I said if any were out of his Wit it was here and this willingly I referre to the Assembly whether any but he that were out of his Wit could affirme that if Christ command to baptize and teach it were sufficient to baptize or that they need onely baptize is a command conteining diverse things in conjunctive termes executed by performing one part alone and leaving the other part undone I hope the Assembly will doe us that right to judge which of us two are out of our Wit for one of us must needs be unadvised Master Tombes talketh of a purge to purge his braine certainly he is full of fowle matter for he vomiteth much bitternesse and blacke calumnies against me my booke is nothing but mistakes sure he is sicke he cannot speake sense he is light headed it is the strength of his disease he divideth my mistakes into mistakes in Logick Divinity and sometimes in Grammer but most of all of his meaning and scope of his words and strength of his arguments See here be foure kindes of mistakes Logicke Divinity and Grammer he meaneth sure English Grammer by the mistake of the Printer or haste in the businesse but the fowlest is in his meaning scope of his words force of his arguments it seemeth he hath a sense and his arguments have a force that neither Grammer Logick nor Divinity can finde cut what kinde of words and arguments be these that a man may misse in when he doth not misse either
