From R . Baxter to Ambrose Upton , concerning Shr Henry Vane .
fTVIE occasion of this letter will be X beat explained by a passage of Baxter ' s in his JAfe and Times . Speaking of Sir H , Vaae , be charges him with obscurity , and says , " This obscurity by some w ^ s iinputed to bW not understaTwUag himself $ hnl fey
others to design , because he could speak plain when he Jlsted ; the two courses iu which he had most success , a * id spake mqst j ^ ain , were , his earnest plea for universal liberty of conscience * and against the m ^^ istratj ^ s intermeddling ; with religion , and his teaching his followers to revile the ministry ,
calling them ordinarily blackcoats , priests and other names which then savoured of reproach ; ^ ad those gentlemen that adhered to the ministry , they said were priest-ridden *
" Of my own displeasing him this is the true ^ ecouat . It grieved me to see a podr kingdom thufc tost up and down in unqufetness , and the ministers made odious and ready to be cast ant , and the Reformation trodden under
foot , and parliaments and piety made a scorn , ajnd scarce ttnjr dcmbtedr but he was the principal spring of all . Therefore , being writing ag ^ net the Papist ^ , coming to vindicate pur religion against ti ^ em ^ wiiea X ^ &f impute to us the Wood of t \ & king , I * ttM / proved that i ^ e Pro testQ ^ ts , and jmrti cularly the Jpreabyteri ^ na , abhorred it , and suflfemf greatly far onppsing . it :
