Wherein is examined and refuted a certaine booke written upon the same subject, by P. Studley, entituled the Looking glasse of schisme. Also an appendix in further defence of this relation, wherein are examined the most material passages added in the second edition of the said Looking-glasse, wherby the author, vainely sheweth his desire to maintaine and excuse his erroneous reports in the former edition of his booke. By Richar [sic] More Esquire. Printed by order of a committee of the Honourable House of Commons now assembled in Parliament. More, Richard, d. 1643. 1641 (1641) Wing M2685; ESTC R214234 36,623 178
