Genevensis[1] a Friend’s inconsistency blames
For running with Paul, and yet holding with James,
This as knavish he notes in a free-willing brother,
Saying one thing to us, and intending another:
But how often have we at their honesty wondred,
We cry MERCY for all, and mean One in an hundred!
[1] This epigram is in response to John Fletcher’s Logica Genevensis; or a Fourth Check to Antinomianism: In which St. James’s Pure Religion is defended against the charges, and established upon the Concessions of Mr. Richard and Mr. Rowland Hill, in a Series of Letters to those Gentlemen (Bristol: W. Pine, 1772).
