A93646 The guilty-covered clergy-man unvailed; in a plain and candid reply unto two bundles of wrath and confusion, wrapt up in one and twenty sheets of paper. The one written by Christopher Fowler and Simon Ford of Reading; the other by William Thomas of Ubley in Somersetshire. Wherein all their malicious slanders and false accusations, which they cast upon the truth, are clean wash'd off; their weapons with which they war against the Lamb, broken over their own heads; and they, with the rest of the tyth-exacting teachers, proved to be the great incendaries, and mis-leaders of these nations. In which also there is made a brief and sober application, to the magistrates, and other inhabitants, within the city of Bristol. / By Thomas Speed, a friend to all that tremble at the Word of the Lord; but an irreconcileable enemy to the mysterious deceit, and monstrous hypocrisie of those that do teach for hire, and divine for money. Speed, Thomas, b. 1622 or 3. 1657 (1657) Wing S4905; Thomason E893_1; ESTC R203614 61,807 87

the_o six_o 4._o last_o there_o be_v no_o clear_a demonstration_n that_o neither_o you_o nor_o he_o be_v minister_n of_o christ_n than_o this_o that_o you_o express_v such_o clamour_n about_o your_o
