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.

I. B. What? Is Mr. G. afraid to put (The using of a Lot in game) into the Conclusion?
I. B. What? Is Mr. G. afraid to put (The vsing of a Lot in game) into the Conclusion?
T. G. ⟨p. 79⟩Mr. G. is not afraid to put it in; for he doth it in effect. But Mr. B. (who with all faithfulness, if you will believe him, relateth Mr. Gs. Arguments) cutteth it out himself in the relating of it, and then asketh Mr. G. why he putteth it not in. If this be not childish, I know not what is. It is like the Papists dealing with us, that clip the tongue of antiquity, and then ask us why we do not or dare not allege it.

I. B. Is not the Minor to be the Subject, and the Major to be the Predicate of the Conclusion? I will not question the figure of this pretended Argument, if Sub, prae, prima, will serve the turn. And though I find it in no mood, yet will I answer the two fore-pieces thereof.
