A90669	Mock-majesty: or, the siege of Munster. Being a true story of those fine things, wherewith King Iohn Becock, at first a botcher of Leiden by profession, and his companions the Anabaptists, pleased themselves after they were become masters of that city. You shall here likewise have the issue of the whole mock-show. Imprimatur, James Cranford.	Phillippson, J.	1645 (1645)	Wing P2120; Thomason E270_20; ESTC R212338	27,128	34
