A13299	A Christian reprofe against contention Wherin is declared and manifested a just defence of the Church against such slanderes and reproches which Sabine Staresmore hath layd vpon vs in his two bookes, the first being 16 questions, called a louing tender. The second is his preface and postscript befor and behind Mr. Answorths last sermon, and making a pretence by that to sett it out as a loue token, hee breetheth out his malice against vs: and lastly her is an answer to a letter written by Mr. Robinson, and sent to vs with the consent of his Church, which now Mr. Staresmore hath published to the world. To these things an answer is giuen by A.T.	A. T., fl. 1631.; Thatcher, Anthony, attributed name.	1631 (1631)	STC 23605; ESTC S103240	40,101	48

for_o the_o matter_n of_o his_o cast_v out_o i_o have_v before_o show_v and_o for_o the_o manner_n of_o his_o cast_v out_o how_o can_v he_o term_v it_o a_o cast_n out_o at_o the_o window_n see_v it_o

to_o cast_v they_o forth_o and_o then_o their_o own_o alliance_n have_v not_o to_o speak_v for_o they_o therefore_o if_o his_o cause_n have_v be_v good_a against_o the_o church_n as_o it_o be_v not_o
