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.

Assumption, though it concern Lots in general: and another to say, It proveth not Mr. Bs. Assumption, because it concerneth Lots in general. That is all that can be gathered out of ought that I affirm. But Mr. B. his earnest desire belike to have his Assumption confirmed, suggested this to him.
