Excerpt from The Works of the Rev. Daniel Waterland, D.D, Vol. 3 of 6: Formerly Master of Magdalene College, Cambridge, Canon of Windsor, and Archdeacon of Middlesex, to Which Is Prefixed a Review of the Author's Life and Writings Waiting a while longer, there comes out another pamphlet, entitled, Observations, &c. And by the Author of the Reply to my First Defence, printed for James Knapton, &c. Which when I saw, I immediately concluded as I had some leisure upon my hands, that here was a call to me to set pen to paper once more. For however low an opinion I might have of the per formance, after reading it, yet the Author of the Reply, when he has any thing to say, and while our readers are not quite weary, may always command my more especial notice. Whether it be Dr. Clarke, or whether it be Mr. Jackson, (for though it be doubted which, all agree that it lies between them, ) they are both men whom I must attend to: one, as he is the principal in the cause; the other, as he is second, and had the first hand in committing my Queries to the press, engaging me ever after in the public service. Let but either of those two gentlemen stand accountable in the opinion of the world, (i mean no more, ) for any foul play on their Side, as I by setting my name am answer able for any on mine, and then I Shall think myself upon even terms with them in that respect: and as to any other, I humbly conceive, I have no reason to fear their gaining any advantage.
