Manuscript on paper, in a single hand, consisting of aphorisms, axioms, and pithy commentary on such subjects as "Wisdom, "Money," "Retalliation," and "Parliament." Concerning "Popery," the author writes, "We charge the prelaticall clergy with the popery to make them odious tho we know they are guilty of no such thing. Just as heretofore they called Images Mammetts and the adoration of Images Mammetry, that is Mahomet & Mahometry odious names, when all the world knows the Turks are forbidden Images by their Religion."
