Were not Patrons at the first made choice of to defend the Ministers right against the fraud and injustice of the people ? And may not the wisdome of the Parliament finde out the same , or some such like course , whereby the Minister shall neither be ingaged in contentions with his people , nor troubled with avocations from his study thereby ? 13.

  A Warning-piece to all drunkards and health-drinkers faithfully collected from the works of English and foreign learned authors of good esteem, Mr. Samuel Ward and Mr. Samuel Clark, and others ...

summary:
  Soon after the imprisonment of this Thomas Savage , in Newgate ; upon the desire of one of his Friends , Mr. R. F. and T. V. went to him in the Prison , and had liberty , with much readiness from the Keepers to discourse with him : They asked him , if he were the person that had murthered the Maid ? He answered , that he was ; they did then open to him the hainous nature of that sin , endeavouring to set it home upon his Conscience , telling him of the express Law of God , Thou shalt not Kill , and the express threatnings , That whosoever sheddeth mans blood , by man shall his blood be shed . But laying all this aside , they say all these are Modes and Ceremonies in drinking ; and their meaning is no more , but only to pray for the Health and Prosperity of such and such ▪ Which is the reason they are at it in a posture of Prayer , standing up , standing bare , sometimes kneeling upon their knees , as Supplicants do to God Almighty : But will any rational man think these men at Prayers ? Are these praying postures ? Did God ever command , or his People ever apply to the Throne in this manner of Address ? Have men lived to this age , and cannot yet distinguish between drinking intemperately and praying fervently ? as if to Pray were to Drink , and to Drink were to Pray !
