Poole, champion of literature, cannot accept Calef whose " faculties, as indicated by his writings appear to us to have been of an inferior order ;..." and his book " in our opinon, has a reputation much beyond its merits.

Poole refers to Calef as Mather's " personal enemy " and opens a line, " Without discussing the character and motives of Calef ..." and he does not follow up on this suggestiveness, to discuss any motive or reason to impune Calef's character.
