The nonconformists advocate

for it is not usual nor slightly, that the Son of so great a man should need to turn serving-man. Well, notwithstanding he proffers his service to Tobit the Son, v. 6. And is entertained to wait upon him in his Travail; and so they went forth both and the young mans dog with him, ver. 16. And it is this Raphael, this servant which teaches his young Master those unheard of Rarities, and puts him upon the performing those wonderful exploits in the following Acts. Davus Omnia: Raphael is all in all, and young Tobit is nothing without him. Why therefore this necessary scene of introduction, should be left out and omitted, and this busy Davus and most extraordinary servant should abruptly and suddenly appear, none understanding from whence or how, is wholly beyond my apprehension. I would gladly know, whether Mr. Falkner, (unto whom you owe much) in any of his great labours, and learned Exercitations ⟨p. 69⟩about the Liturgy, has given us the true reason of this Chasm and Hiulcan leap in the Calendar?
