A90244	The ordinance for tythes dismounted, from all Mosaicall, evangelicall, and true magesteriall right. By that valliant and most victorious champion, the great anti-clergy of our times, his superlative holyness, reverend young Martin Mar-Priest, sonne to old Martin the Metropolitane. Commended and presented to the petitioners of Hertford-shire, for their further encouragement, and for provocation of other counties to become petitionary with them against the unhallowed illegall exaction of tythes.	Overton, Richard, fl. 1646.	1645 (1645)	Wing O632; Thomason E313_27; ESTC R200481	33,415	43
