B08981	A sharp arrovv darted against the anabaptists, &c. being an apology, or defence of the visible church upon Earth, and an objection to all such persons as doe rebaptize men and women, and against being covered at the divine exercise of preaching the word of God to the people, as also against those that deny to say the Lords Prayer / David Edmonds.
