- An enquiry into the nature, necessity, and evidence of Christian faith, in several essays. Part I [-II] of faith in general, and of the belief of a deity, John Cockburn, 1699 [or perhaps in the 1st edition of 1696], London : Printed for William Keblewhite at the Swan in St. Pauls's Churchyard as quoted in The Wisdom of God Manifested in the Works of the Creation in two parts, Viz. The Heavenly Bodies, Elements, Meteors, Fossils, Vegetables, Animals, (beasts, Birds, Fishes, and Insects) more particularly in the Body of the Earth, its Figure, Motion, and Consistency, and in the admirable Structure of the Bodies of Man, and other Animals, as also in their Generation, &c. With answers to some objections. By John Ray, Late Fellow of the Royal Society, 1704, London: printed by J.B. for Sam. Smith, and sold by Jeffrey Wale at the Angel in St. Paul's Church-Yard, 4th ed. London; hand (p.285); handwriting (p.284); [BKG Note: because SJ quoted extensively from this John Ray title, it is the likely Dict. source of the Cockburn citations. Ray cites p.71 of Cockburn Essays &c.; the Ray quotation was verified to start on p.71 of Part I of the 1699 edition of the Cockburn title above.]
