- Doctor Flvdds Answer vnto M. Foster | Or, | The Sqveesing Of | Parson Fosters Sponge, ordained | by liim for the wiping away of the | Weapon-Salve. | Wherein the Sponge-bearers immodest carriage and | behauiour towards his bretheren is detected ; the bitter flames | of his slanderous reports, are b}^ the sharpe vinegar of Truth | corrected and quite extinguished : and lastly, the ver- | tuous validity of his Sponge, in wiping away of | the Weapon-Salue, is crushed out and I cleane abolished. | Psal. 92, 7. | Bilis acutissima aceto correcta acerrimo redditur dulcior. | Opera Dei, vir brutus & stultus non intelligit. | The Assei'tion of Parson Foster and his Faction or Cabale, | is this : [ The wonderfull manner of healing by the weapon- salue, is diaboli- | call, or affected onely by the inuention and power of the Deuill ; | But, the Royal Psalmist guided by the spirit of God, saith : | Psal. 71, 18, Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, wlio only worketh wonders : 1 Therefore, the Propliet pointeth thus, at these and such like enemies ! of tlie Truth. I Esa. 5, 20. Woe vnto them that speake good of euill. ami euill of good ; which | })ut darknesse for light, and light for darknesse ; that put bitter for sweet, and | sweet for bitter ; AVoe vnto them that are wise in their owne ejms, and prudent | in their own sight. |
