A36289	A pick-tooth for swearers, or, A looking glass for atheists and prophane persons wherein the greatness of the party offended, the solemn giving of the law, together with the strickness and purity thereof, the unquestionable verity of the Holy Scriptures, and what fearfull sentence the wiked may expect in the great day are briefly touched.	Donaldson, James, fl. 1697-1713.	1698 (1698)	Wing D1854; ESTC R25002	12,163	24
