A64894	Former ages never heard of, and after ages will admire, or, A brief review of the most materiall parliamentary transactions, beginning, Nov. 3, 1640 wherein the remarkable passages both of their civil and martial affaires, are continued unto this present year published as a breviary, leading all along, successively, as they fell out in their severall years, so that if any man will be informed of any remarkable passage, he may turne to the year, and so see in some measure, in what moneth thereof it was accomplished : for information of such as are altogether ignorant of the rise and progresse of these times : a work worthy to be kept in record, and communicated to posterity.	Vicars, John, 1579 or 80-1652.; Jenner, Thomas, fl. 1631-1656.	1654 (1654)	Wing V305; ESTC R2983	53,959	61
