ADVERTISEMENT. A S there is a Confirmation in feveral Churches of this Kingdom, and as I hope this will not be thought an improper Book to be put into the Hand of the young Confirmed, fo I thought this the most proper Time to fend it into the World; and the more fo, as I am credibly informed we have feveral already come, and more perfecuted Refugees are daily coming, over here: And to fuch as thefe, furely, to fhew the Pageantry and tinfy Gaudinefs in which that WHORE of Babylon, the Church of Rome, is dreffed, cannot but be grateful, whilft the Memory of her tyrannical Perfecutions are ftill fresh upon them. Not that I would here be understood in the leaft to favour the perfecuting Spirit: No! far be that from the Breaft of every Proteftant, Layman or Divine, whose Breafts should rather be replete with the allembracing Spirit of true CATHOLICISM, taught by that Redeemer who gave his Life a Ransom for All : And enforced by the Doctrines of that Saviour, who, whilft he concluded all under Sin, it was only that he might have Mercy upon ALL. |
