Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Strictures on the Letter of J. K. L: Entitled a Vindication of the Religious and Civil Principles of the Irish Catholics
Permit me then, my Lord, to solicit the honour of your attention to a few strictures on the Letter of your corres pondent. If I wrest his language, if I draw unfounded consequences, if I conjure up ghosts and goblins to alarm the timid, dismiss me from your presence as a visionary. I do not mean, my Lord, to exhaust your patience, and write a dissertation on every point of controversy by the publication before me. Every part of the pam deserves indeed full discussion, and I am convinced have it but let it be my' part to draw the attention of Excellency and the public to the mode of reasoning played in this extraordinary pamphlet. This appears to unsound, and, in no ordinary degree, sophistical. Hear my Lord, whilst I establish this charge.
Even in the very title of the work we have a spec dexterous management. Is it in the compass of that your Excellency' s correspondent proposes a defence of the religious and civil principles of the Roman Catholics? Such a production could scarcely afford room for the titles of the points in controversy; The religious principles of his sect which he attempts to vindicate are a very few indeed. But this pompous title will serve a'purpose. It will suffice to many for a real defence of the whole principles of Roman Catholic Church.
