A41160	Janus Alexandrus Ferrarius, an Augustine friar, his epistles to the two brethern of Wallenburgh, concerning the usefulness and necessity of the Roman Catholick faith wherein the ambition and avarice of the Church of Rome are lively demonstrated in a mathematical method, by a continued series of connexed propositions / from the original Latine.	Fabricius, Johann Ludwig, 1632-1697.; Fabricius, Joannes Ludovicus.	1673 (1673)	Wing F73; ESTC R32018	52,870	158

out_o of_o his_o quickness_n of_o spirit_n he_o perceive_v how_o much_o the_o christian_a religion_n be_v averse_a to_o his_o purpose_n as_o divert_v man_n from_o seek_v after_o present_a felicity_n

fierceness_n service_n instead_o of_o freedom_n and_o prayer_n and_o tear_n instead_o of_o arm_n though_o he_o believe_v it_o utter_o pernicious_a and_o averse_a to_o his_o design_n yet_o he_o judge_v
