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. Mr. Fennors book, from which these allegations be drawn, and from whence I learned that Lots may not be used in sport, doth prove that lusorious Lots are forbidden, and therefore not indifferent. What help then hath Mr. G. from Mr. Fennors grants?
I. B. Mr. Fennors booke, from which these allegations be drawne, and from whence I learned that Lots may not be vsed in sport, doth proue that lusorious Lots are forbidden, and therefore not indifferent. What helpe then hath Mr. G. from Mr. Fennors grants?
T. G. Much every way. For ano testimony is stronger than that that the adverse party giveth against himself. If the grounds granted by him that holdeth and laboureth to prove a lusorious Lot unlawful, be of sufficient validity to prove them lawful and allowable, it is a matter of no small moment. Else why doth Mr. B. himself in his Dialogue reason from Peter Martyrs grants against Peter Martyr?
