4 The Challenge which M. Parsons made was that I should note but any one man of that profession, who might be found guilty of falshoods, by wilful abuse of his Authors. I therefore for my Aduersaries better satisfaction thought to single out Bellarmine, one of the tallest Firre-trees of their * 1.1 Libanon, which so ouershaddowed this Pamphleter that I could not see him; and now the shrub boasts that hee (for∣sooth) was therefore freed from all taxation of false dealing. Could this be one of the Three select Disputants, that argueth so absurdly? Before I end this Censure, he will know that it was not the syncerity of his dealing, but the obscurity of his place and person that made me omit him in that Reply: as may appeare both by his present vnconscionable chal∣linge of me, and also from his former dissolute and immode∣rate Answer vnto the booke of Discouery. In his present Pamphlet he signifieth first what he will not, and then what he will doe. Of the first.
The encounter against M. Parsons, by a revievv of his last sober reckoning, and his exceptions vrged in the treatise of his mitigation. Wherein moreouer is inserted: 1. A confession of some Romanists, both concerning the particular falsifications of principall Romanists, as namely, Bellarmine, Suarez, and others: as also concerning the generall fraude of that curch, in corrupting of authors. 2. A confutation of slaunders, which Bellarmine vrged against Protestants. 3. A performance of the challenge, which Mr. Parsons made, for the examining of sixtie Fathers, cited by Coccius for proofe of Purgatorie ... 4. A censure of a late pamphlet, intituled, The patterne of a Protestant, by one once termed the moderate answerer. 5. An handling of his question of mentall equiuocation (after his boldnesse with the L. Cooke) vpon occasion of the most memorable, and feyned Yorkeshire case of equiuocating; and of his raging against D. Kings sermon. Published by authoritie
