A66781	Speculum speculativum, or, A considering-glasse being an inspection into the present and late sad condition of these nations : with some cautional expressions made thereupon / by George Wither, immediately after His Majesties restauration, to preserve in himself and others a Christian obedience to God's various dispensations ; hereby also are some glimmerings discovered of what will probably ensue hereafter.
