Sir, I own the words you quote,1 and am bold to challenge the most envious Eye that shall read those lines, to show me the least repugnancy betwixt what I said there, and what I have said in my Vindiciae Legis, &c. p. 9. of the Prolegomena, and p. 61. of that Book. You show your good-will to make an advantageous thrust; but your Weapon is too short, and can draw no blood. But leaving these weak and impertinent Cavils, let us come to your Solution of my Arguments, p. 98. by which I proved the Conditionality of the New Covenant. My first Argument was this.
