A58365 The dovvnfall of Babilon: or The mistery of iniquity opened Wherein is declared the grounds and reasons of our departing from Rome, and that we had just cause to separate from her, and that in departing from her, we have not departed from the Church of Christ, but returned to it; also that to heare a false and unlawfull minister in the execution of his office, is unlawfull, and a breach of every one of the ten Commandements.
