A84947	Theios divine beames of glorious light. Shining from the sacred scriptures, which expell the fogges of error, that engender darknesse, in doubting soules, by mistaken thoughts, touching the diety, faith, and Christain ordinances.

Licensed and entered in the Stationeers Hall book.	Fry, John, 1609-1657, Attributed name.	1651 (1651)	Wing F2256; Thomason E625_10; ESTC R206458	8,705	15
