Note 750 — Chapter XII

I take this from extracts out of those sermons, contained in a Roman catholic pamphlet printed in 1687, and entitled "Good Advice to the Pulpits." The protestant divines did their cause no good by misrepresentation of their adversaries, and by their propensity to rudeness and scurrility. The former fault indeed existed in a much greater degree on the opposite side, but by no means the latter. See also a treatise by Barlow, published in 1679, entitled, "Popish Principles pernicious to Protestant Princes."
