And such a deale of Trumpery, that my pen tyres before it come to the ••••adious Journies end of his invective speech; wherein, I have so much charity left to excuse him; in that, he personates some Mini∣sters, whom his malice conceives no better then fooles; Who, indeed, though they make no flourish, quoate no Fathers, repeate no sentences of Greek and Latine, and preach not themselves (as our learned Dr. doth) yet edifie the simpler sort of people more in two howers, then he with his neate Orations and quaint stile doth in five Sermons, ushered in by his Popish Lettany. These are those men who (in his last clause, he covertly saith) are admired by too many, and whose preaching lesse edifies then the superstitious Common-prayer book: Doctor, leave your gibeing, and presume not too much upon your learning and wit, which God hath given you, as a sharp knife to cut your own Throat, And deride not those whose Defects of learning are so bountifully sup∣plyed with Inspirations and Revelations of the spirit.
