A64904	Unholsome henbane between two fragrant roses, or, Reasons and grounds proving the unlawfull and sinfull inserting of the corrupt and most erronious Apocrypha between the two most pure and sacred testaments together with a most humble vote and serious desire to our most reverend and religious assembly of divines, to be a means to the high and honorable Court of Parliament for the utter expunging of it out of the Holy-Bible.

unwholesome_a henbane_n between_o two_o fragrant_a rose_n or_o reason_n and_o ground_n prove_v the_o unlawful_a and_o sinful_a insert_n of_o the_o corrupt_a and_o most_o erroneous_a apocrypha_n

so_o hopeful_a halcyon-day_n of_o a_o most_o holy_a and_o happy_a reformation_n i_o have_v a_o long_a time_n take_v notice_n of_o one_o which_o i_o humble_o conceive_v to_o be_v none_o of_o the_o
