ANIMAD. upon Sect. 8.
I shall say little upon this Section, having already given notice how untruly and unchristianly he calls the Letter here specified, an insulting Letter. Yet to say, that it was written to him for such an end as here he chargeth it with, viz. To tell him that after he was dead something should be published against him, &c. as if this had been either the only or the principal drift of the Letter, is much more dis-ingenuous. I presume there is no man that shall please ⟨p. 44⟩to read this Letter (being since printed) but will acknowledge the drift and scope of it to have been honourable and Christian, and not unworthy the best and dearest Friend M. Love had.
