Her sins, her judgements. With some plain queries further to discover her, and some considerations to help out of her suburbs, that her inward building may lye the more open to the breath and spirit of the Lord, from which it is to receiv [sic] its consumption and overthrow. Also, an exhortation to the powers of the earth. By Isaac Penington, the younger. Penington, Isaac, 1616-1679. 1659 (1659) Wing P1153; Thomason E770_2; ESTC R203128 52,975 64
