A67879	The life and death of VVilliam Lawd, late Archbishop of Canterburie: beheaded on Tower-Hill, Friday the 10. of January. 1644. I. Here is a brief narration of his doings all his life long faithfully given-out, first, that his sayings at his death may not be a snare to the perdition of souls. II. His doings and sayings being compared and weighed together, his sayings are found infinitely too light; yet of weight sufficient to presse every man to make a threefold use from all, of infinite concernment to his eternall soul. By E.W. who was acquainted with his proceedings in Oxford; was an eye and eare witnesse of his doings and sayings in his courts here at London; and other places under his dominion.	Woodward, Ezekias, 1590-1675.; Waller, Edmund, 1606-1687, attributed name.; Marshall, William, fl. 1617-1650, engraver.	1645 (1645)	Wing W3496A; ESTC R6515	29,164	53
