With the literature of Christian antiquity he had not, so far as his writings show, the slightest acquaintance; and his knowledge of Anglican divines Wake, and Cleaver, and Sherlock, and Horsley has a suspicious air of having been hastily acquired for the express purpose of confuting Bishop Marsh.
I had infinite satisfaction in hearing solid truth confuting vain subtilty. I thank God that I have got acquainted with Mr Johnson. He has done me infinite service. He has assisted me to obtain peace of mind; he has assisted me to become a rational Christian; I hope I shall ever remain so. Pleasantly all this would sound at home.
"Pardon me, but you're contradicting your own statement. You just said it was the whistle," he corrected her. "It's the whistle that gives me Check Number Seven. You haven't the least bit of responsibility. The whistle gets it all, just as you said." This was too much. Confuting her with her own words!

In the first volume of his Caledonia, he quotes the passage in Godscroft for the purpose of confuting it.
