A54199	Quakerism, a new nick-name for old Christianity being an answer to a book entituled Quakerism no Christianity, subscribed by J. Faldo : in which the rise, doctrine and practice of the abused Quakers are truly, briefly and fully declared and vindicated from the false charges ... made by that adversary with a key opening the true meaning of some of their doctrine ... / by one of them and a sufferer with them in all their sufferings, William Penn.

the_o ready_a nay_o the_o only_a right_a way_n to_o come_v to_o true_a faith_n in_o christ_n as_o he_o then_o appear_v and_o to_o receive_v any_o benefit_n by_o he_o and_o it_o be_v not_o another_o
