A90395 Severall fresh inward openings, (concerning severall things) which the day will declare of what nature they are, to which judgment they appeal for justice, being contented either to stand or fall by it: and being likewise ready to kiss that condemnation, which they are likely to meet with in the mean time, from all sorts of men, whom they finde ready to deal hardly with them. / Through Isaac Penington, (junior) Esq; Penington, Isaac, 1616-1679. 1650 (1650) Wing P1189; Thomason E608_2; ESTC R205900 38,872 56
