A83961	Englands faiths defender vindicated: or, A word to clear a most foul, damnable and scandalous aspersion, which hath been cast upon that patient and suffering Prince, Charles II. By some villanous and seditious persons, that he should have renounced the Protestant religion, and Church of England, and have embraced Popery. Published out of Christian and loyal duty, by a person who hath been faithful ever since he could discern the light from darkness.		1660 (1660)	Wing E2964; Thomason E1017_17; ESTC R207999	5,484	8
