A77067	The labyrinth the kingdom's in: with a golden threed to bring it forth into light, liberty, and peace agen. Being a brief but impartial history of the good and evil of the former, later, and present power of the nation, as it relates to God and the people. The result is a plea for the restauration of all in Christ (the kingdoms rest,) who is expected to appear more in the present, then in any former power of the nation. / By R. Bacon, a lover of mankinde.	Bacon, Robert, M.A.	1649 (1649)	Wing B369; Thomason E541_26; ESTC R204342	33,585	52

against_o all_o it_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o all_o good_a man_n and_o government_n to_o give_v down_o like_o the_o sun_n in_o the_o firmament_n light_n &_o warmth_n as_o well_o to_o the_o benefit_n
