A75315	The anatomie of the French and Spanish faction. With a full discovery of who they are; and what they have done, from before the beginning of King Iames his raigne unto this present. Declaring in particulars, how the many miseries and the calamities which we have, and do indure by blood, rapine, and many insupportable impositions, have proceeded directly from them, seconded by the ambitious spirits of the bishops. Wherein also all our grievances, and their subtle and horrible plots are instanced; to give a more full and ample satisfaction unto all. Published according to the order of Parliament.		1644 (1644)	Wing A3060; Thomason E35_29; ESTC R20722	7,562	16
