Plain-dealing with a traducing Anabaptist, or, Three letters writ upon occasion of some slanderous reflections given and promoted against William Penn by one John Morse published for common benefit that all impartial people may be better acquainted with the invective spirit of some so called, and their ungodly sly way of defaming such as dissents from them, especially in their restless indeavours against the poor Quakers / by W.P.

Reader,

THis is the very Truth of the matter, which I the rather add, that what Advantage he may think to have gain'd, and his Boast of it, may receive some Allay by a plain and true Relation of the whole, so far as could be remembred.

Of what force then her mistake is against the Light, is to be Learn'd from her own Ingenuous Confession; and if John Morse were Candid, he would have laid the blame where it was proper, and not have charg'd it upon the Light within.

And indeed, if we Consider, first, that Christ's coming in, the Doors being shut, is not mentioned in that Scripture, Luke 24.38, 39. as cited by him, but in Joh. 20.19, 26. 2ly, That he was not there with∣out his Spirit. 3ly, Were it not unjust to say, the Light in the Disciples grosly erred, when they supposed they had seen a Spirit? Luke 24.37. 4ly, That it was a Foolish and Unnecessary Question on his part. 5ly, That he took base Advantage of it. 6ly, That the Maid so particular∣ly Clear'd the Light from leading her into any, the least Mistake. 7ly, That I could ask him ten Questions for his one he put to her, of the like abstruse and obscure Matters, that I have cause to believe he is wholy ignorant of, & the Knowledge of them not necessary to Salvation, I say, consi∣dering these Particulars, and that all arose from her loving Invitation of him to a Meeting, I cannot see but he is far more Condemnable then the Maid; and I believe, the Light in every unprejudiced Conscience will say the same.
