A51289 A brief reply to a late answer to Dr. Henry More his Antidote against idolatry Shewing that there is nothing in the said answer that does any ways weaken his proofs of idolatry against the Church of Rome, and therefore all are bound to take heed how they enter into, or continue in the communion of that church as they tender their own salvation. More, Henry, 1614-1687. 1672 (1672) Wing M2645; ESTC R217965 188,285 386

there_o be_v not_o pass_v two_o or_o three_o that_o be_v a_o entreat_n of_o the_o saint_n to_o pray_v for_o we_o but_o to_o aid_v and_o succour_v we_o in_o such_o a_o way_n as_o the_o story_n of_o
