A81336	A collection of speeches made by Sir Edward Dering Knight and Baronet, in matter of religion. Some formerly printed, and divers more now added: all of them revised, for the vindication of his name, from weake and wilfull calumnie: and by the same Sir Edward Dering now subjected to publike view and censure, upon the urgent importunity of many, both gentlemen and divines.	Dering, Edward, Sir, 1598-1644.	1642 (1642)	Wing D1104; Thomason E197_1; ESTC R212668	73,941	173

these_o canon_n as_o i_o conceive_v be_v easy_o discoverable_a by_o one_o short_a question_n viz._n what_o do_v you_o call_v the_o meeting_n wherein_o they_o be_v make_v give_v it_o a_o name_n to_o

own_o what_o they_o be_v we_o may_v prosecute_v but_o hardly_o with_o concludent_fw-la argument_n yet_o i_o venture_v i_o have_v confer_v with_o some_o of_o the_o founder_n of_o these_o new_a canon_n

i_o will_v neither_o inveigh_v upon_o they_o as_o unnamed_a commissioner_n nor_o infirm_a they_o as_o the_o work_n of_o a_o dead_a convocation_n but_o will_v take_v they_o in_o the_o capacity_n of_o
