A38820 Discourses on the present state of the Protestant princes of Europe exhorting them to an union and league amongst themselves against all opposite interest, from the great endeavours of the court of France and Rome to influence all Roman Catholick princes, against the Protestant states and religion, and the advantage that our divisions give to their party : wherein the general scope of this horrid Popish Plot is laid down, and presented to publick view / by Edmund Everard ...

nature_n herein_o i_o believe_v it_o be_v necessary_a for_o their_o content_n by_o way_n of_o prelude_n thereto_o unanimous_o and_o in_o a_o public_a way_n to_o demand_v a_o session_n of_o the_o
