Containing a most terrible yet true relation of the many most fearefull personall examples (in these present times, since the yeere, 1640.) of Gods most evident and immediate wrath against our malevolent malignants.

Vicars, John, 1579 or 80-1652. 1643 (1643) Wing V317; Thomason E33_18; ESTC R19020 39,491 44
