A second admonition to Mr. Edward Bagshaw written to call him to repentance for…

Sect. 63. E. B. p. 26. I am much confirmed in that judgement of your Book, since a person yet living, and one worthy of credit, acquainted me, that when the learned and judicious Mr. Herle had read that cried-up Book of yours, he told him, It had been happy for the Church of God if your friends had never sent you to School. Mr. Cawdry had the same opinion of it; And another person as knowing in the Mystery of Godliness as either of them told a friend of mine, that notwithstanding the noise about you, you would end in flesh and blood.

R. B. 1. A worthy question! What a Book is which you never read! I will help you out, and mend your cause. You dispraise it that never read it; and you name some that read it and dispraised it; ⟨p. 153⟩And I that wrote it am far from praising it. Therefore I hope you are gratified▪ and who will now contradict you? (Though I confess for my own part, I think I shall not think my self fit to tell the world in Print what any mans Book is, at the same time when I confess that I never read it: But you may possibly avoid that way because it is mine.)
