the nonjurors of the seventeenth century and the Oxford Movement of the nineteenth. Writings Among his publications were: The Theology and Philosophy of Cicero's Somnium Scipionis 1751, a satirical pamphlet. (With William Jones) A full answer to the Essay on Spirit by Bishop R. Clayton, with a particular explanation of the Hermetic, Pythagorean, and Platonic Trinities, 1752. Against the views of Robert Clayton. A Fair, Candid, and Impartial Statement of the Case between Sir Isaac Newton and Mr. Hutchinson (anon.) 1753. An Apology for certain Gentlemen in the University of Oxford, aspersed in a late anonymous pamphlet 1756. The anonymous pamphlet was called 'A Word to the Hutchinsonians'.

A View of Mr. Kennicott's Method of Correcting the Hebrew Text 1760.
