1. Our full and faithful Vindication by a Beneficed Minister, and a Regular son of the Church, Called A Compassionate Consideration of the Case of the Nonconformists: I am not so happy as to know the Author, but he confirmeth my former Judgment, that a great part of the Passive Conformists are moderate worthy men, with whom we should earnestly endeavour as near and fast a coalition as is possible to be had by lawful means.
2. And either the same hand, or such another Conformist, hath written Reflections on Doctor Stillingfleet, in which the like candour and charity appeareth, though with some excess of kindness to me.

V. With this Defence against Doctor Stillingfleet, I at once publish in another Volume, An Apology for the Nonconformists Preaching, with an Answer to a multitude of their Accusers, and Reasons to prove that it is the Bishops and Conformists great Duty and Interest to seek their Restoration. Which is the most material part of the Confutation of Doctor Stillingfleet, who would persuade us that our Preaching is a sin, and make us guilty of silencing our selves.
