TheSeverityof his Sentence, I am far from juffifying ; but the Books mention'd by Mr. Neal, were not the Books, for which he was fentenc'd to . lofe his Ears. The Book for which he fuffer'd, was entitled, * Apologeticus ad Pr rfules Anglicanos, Criminum Ecclefiggicorum, in Curid Celfce Corn - m /Jionis, dutore Johanne Baffwick, M. D. &c. ìfnno 1636. Printed beyond Sea. Which appears very plain from his Anfwer to the Lords in the Star-Chamber: t ' The Lord-Keeper then repli- ed, Dr. Baflwick, do you acknowledge the Apo- ' logy ad PrcaJùles Anglicanos, and the Sentences read in it to be yourown ? My Lord, 1 acknow- ledge but part of it to be mine. For after it was out of my hands, and gone beyond the Seas, fome Man added fomething of his, which I will not father, amongft the which, is one of the Sen- tences alledg'd againil me : and I prefume, your Honours will not condemn me for another Man's Aft.'
