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

to_o stand_v up_o and_o to_o show_v i_o teach_v i_o how_o i_o may_v prove_v that_o ever_o there_o be_v a_o alexander_n of_o macedon_n or_o a_o julius_n caesar_n or_o a_o william_n the_o conqueror_n
