A87593 Hosannah to the Son of David: or A testimony to the Lord's Christ. Offering it self, indifferently, to all persons; though more especially intended for the people, who pass under the name of Quakers. Wherein not so much the detecting of their persons, as the reclaiming the tender-hearted among them from the error of their way, is modestly endevoured, by a sober and moderate discourse, touching the Light and law in every man; referring to what is held forth by them in their several books and papers, herein examined and discussed. By a lover of truth and peace Jackson, John, fl. 1651-1657. 1657 (1657) Wing J78; Thomason E927_5; ESTC R202615 156,564 177

the_o apostle_n make_v james_n 1.23_o 24_o 25._o allude_v to_o the_o natural_a man_n behold_v his_o natural_a face_n in_o a_o glass_n retain_v the_o figure_n if_o he_o abide_v but_o if_o he_o go_v
