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
