A just defence of certain passages in a former treatise concerning the nature and use of lots, against such exceptions and oppositions as have been made thereunto to Mr. I.B. Wherein the insufficiency of his answers given to the arguments brought in defence of a lusorious lot is manifested; the imbecility of his arguments produced against the same further discovered; and the point it self in controversy more fully cleared; by Thomas Gataker B. of D. and author of the former treatise.A iust defence of certaine passages in a former treatise concerning the nature and vse of lots, against such exceptions and oppositions as have beene made thereunto to Mr. I.B.

T. G. Mr. B. cannot (it seemeth) for his life relate1 any Argument of mine as he ought. For 1. Here in the Assumption he leaveth out that that ought not to have been omitted, to wit, of a Lot qualified and cautioned as before, without which mine Assumption were indeed very false. 2. He mangleth my Conclusion, leaving out the very principal part of it, to wit, Therefore the use of a Lot in such cases, &c. that he might find some matter of exception against it. But his exceptions to it follow.
