For that which you mention of Mr. Vaughan's relation in the life, and death of Doctor Jackson, of the care which the Primate took, (being (as you say) a Mourner at his funeral) to have his writings very religiously preserved. First, I have viewed the place, and find some mistake in the words, which are only thus; viz. The Bishop of Armagh, (being at his funeral) much desired ⟨p. 372⟩his papers might be carefully preserved. But secondly, I do not believe the Primate meant, or approved those works of Doctor Jacksons, wherein he professeth himself to be for the Arminian way, as he doth in the Epistle Dedicatory of those Books which he dedicated to the Earle of Pembroke, and which were answered by Doctor Twice. Other works it may be, that ••arned man might have of other subjects, which might be useful to posterity, which the Primate might have a care of, but I do not believe they were any of that nature; and the rather because they must be meant of such works which were not extant at his death, and not of those which were already printed, as you seem to apply it. Besides, it ⟨p. 373⟩doth not appear, the Primate then understood what subjects they were of; And therefore, that which you have immediately added of your own; viz. That such inestimable [Greek or Hebrew] might not be wanting to posterity, but might perform their work of bringing religion into its wits, (which the Reader might possibly mistake, in apprehending them to have been the Primates words) and your somewhat severe application to him, from thence, and what Mr. Barlee had said of Doctor Jackson, seems to want a foundation here.
