A48289	Eyaggeloigrapha. Or, Some seasonable and modest thoughts, in order to the furtherance and promoting the affairs of religion, and the gospel, especially in Wales Mainly tending to the discovery of the evills of extreams, and the spirit of errour and dissention, that hinders the success, and the begetting of a due temper and moderation of judgement, with an universall love and peace amongst us. All, rationally, materially, and very moderately handled. By J.L. Esquire.	Lewis, John, Esquire.	1659 (1659)	Wing L1840A; ESTC R218109	32,748	45

caution_n 1._o that_o the_o able_a minister_n frequent_o mind_v they_o not_o to_o presume_v whole_o upon_o the_o strength_n of_o their_o gift_n and_o to_o endeavour_v to_o improve_v this_o by_o
