A visitation & warning is this unto all magistrates and law-makers temporal and spiritual to repent of persecution and to forsake the evil thereof that so they may obtain mercy and find a hiding-place in the day of God's wrath which is near to be revealed against all such : even from him that sitteth upon the throne and unto all his inferiour officers and people in England whatsover to him that openth and shutteth the prison-doors ... / persecution will undo this generation the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it in Humfry Wooldridge.
