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.

1. My second motive Mr. B. here omitteth,1 and so also do I therefore. This that he saith is part of the third; part, I say; because I say more than so, and yet no more than I can make good neither, that those Arguments, the chief ⟨p. 36⟩of them, that are brought against the one kind, will, if they be sound, necessarily overthrow also the other.

2. What mine Exceptions may chance to do, is a matter merely contingent; and athere is of it therefore no certainty. But of the other that they have made many stagger, I am very certain; nor see I which way Mr. B. keeping to his own grounds will ever be able to settle them. If my Exceptions be such, as is here implied, it had been a good work to have removed them, for their sakes, that might chance else to stumble at them.
