A09106 A quiet and sober reckoning vvith M. Thomas Morton somewhat set in choler by his aduersary P.R. concerning certaine imputations of wilfull falsities obiected to the said T.M. in a treatise of P.R. intituled Of mitigation, some part wherof he hath lately attempted to answere in a large preamble to a more ample reioynder promised by him. But heere in the meane space the said imputations are iustified, and confirmed, & with much increase of new vntruthes on his part returned vpon him againe: so as finally the reconing being made, the verdict of the Angell, interpreted by Daniel, is verified of him. There is also adioyned a peece of a reckoning with Syr Edward Cooke, now L. Chief Iustice of the Co[m]mon Pleas, about a nihil dicit, & some other points vttered by him in two late preambles, to his sixt and seauenth partes of Reports. Parsons, Robert, 1546-1610. 1609 (1609) STC 19412; ESTC S114160 496,646 773

indeed_o speak_v a_o falsity_n but_o yet_o be_v it_o but_o a_o material_a falsity_n for_o that_o he_o think_v that_o he_o say_v truth_n but_o yet_o further_o do_v he_o false_o also_o equivocate_v in_o

to_o the_o second_o i_o say_v that_o a_o material_a false_a equivocation_n can_v never_o be_v lawful_a for_o that_o in_o charity_n the_o speaker_n be_v bind_v not_o to_o conceal_v the_o circumstance_n whereby_o his_o hearer_n be_v wrongful_o &_o injurious_o deceive_v as_o when_o the_o stranger_n demand_v whither_o he_o may_v go_v to_o hear_v catholic_a service_n and_o a_o protestant_a direct_v he_o to_o s._n paul_n church_n though_o the_o equivocation_n be_v but_o material_a in_o he_o in_o that_o he_o think_v
