Iames Turner, which he imparted to an intimate friend a little before his execution : to which is added his deportment and discourses in prison, the manner of his execution and burial : with other occurrences never yet made publique, and now published as a seasonable warning for others to avoid such strange miscarriages. 1663 (1663) Wing T2293; ESTC R26328 19,398 34
