A51058	A moderate and most proper reply to a declaration, printed and published under His Maiesties name, December 8 intended against an ordinance of Parliament for assessing, but indeed animating and encouraging the malignants, and delinquents, in their violent courses, for the maintenance of themselves, and their malignant army.	Prynne, William, 1600-1669.	1642 (1642)	Wing M2320A; ESTC R41506	9,253	8
