John Faldo's Vindication.
ONe would think that so thundering a Charge as W. P's, would have produced out of so many thousand passages as were in my Book, far greater crimes than these ten you have pitched on; some of which are about your meanings of words. And no man will doubt, but that you were re∣solved (in such a Piece as yours) to detect the worst of mine. Herein you highly commend my Book, whose Reports of my travels into your so unknown a Land, shall be guilty of no greater mistakes. Yet those you pretend to be such gross ones, will be proved none at all.
You your self call the understanding of such who are unregenerate (in your sense) a ravening Compre∣hendingBrain—fleshly Comprehensions. But who are your unregenerate persons? Verily all such as give not themselves up to the conduct of the Light with∣in; or in your words, who do not come into the daily obedience of the Light, and there rest contented to know only as they experience. Now unless you can prove, that no man's understanding, except a Qua∣kers or Enthusiasts, is sanctified, you intend their understandings to be fleshly understandings, which yet are really sanctified: For many have their un∣derstandings sanctified, who are neither Quakers nor Enthusiasts.
