For your Respondent, whom you mainly mean here, (witness these words of yours to me, viz. Sir, These short Collections of the Ashford disputation had slept long enough, if your own private letters had not awakned them by a too much sleighting your opponents, and their Arguments) not without a just occasion from a friend of yours presented in a letter called a spade a spade, and represented your Doo back again in no worse wise then it deserved, Asserting that your plea∣ding of Infant-sprinkling from that non-entity of Infant-believing was shamefull and childish pedling, and that the miserable rawness and rudeness of some, then and there ingag'd in Syllogisticall dispute did avor as little of the Scholar, as that of the Christian; all which and what more is there related was no other then the Truth when I pen'd it, and I find nothing to the contrary yet in your Account: Howbeit 'twas so disgracefull and loadsome, that you Disputers immediately became Scribes, and posted out a piece of Print on a sleeveles errand, i. e. the Recovery of your Retrograde Repute, being afraid (not more hen hurt) that if this man of war do not (what is not to be done) maintain your Infant-sprinkling (which premi haud suprimi potest, the more you tread the more you spread) your credit may grow so crazy upon't as to die indeed, as indeed it doth, and that daily, for as zealous as you are to unlade your selves in your Romish wayes of disgraces, yet what grace (unless you have the Grace to Repent) in this juncture, wherein the Lord is about to fill the earth with the knowledge of himself, and that glorious truth which you have darkned, and to bring shamefull spuing upon all your Ghostly glory?
