Crashawe, Batchelour of Diuinitie, and preacher at the temple; iustified by the authour, both against Papist, and Brownist, to be the truth: wherein, this point is principally intended; that the religion of Rome, as now it stands established, is still as bad as euer it was	Crashaw, William, 1572-1626.	1609 (1609)	STC 6028; ESTC S118191	115,004	191
