The True cause of all our miseries, : discovered in their visible effects: as I find it (to my great satisfaction) most manifest, in The lay-man's religion, lately published. Licensed, Octob. 1, 1690. Which vindicates the doctrine of the Church of England, (above all others,) to allow liberty of conscience, according to the tenour of the Gospel. Unveils the undermining Jesuite, ... We find it impossible to prevent the sly and subtile whispers of designing hypocrites; who in secret do mis-represent the best of Their Majesties subjects, ...

And therefore I have singled out this sheet, as the best service I can do Their Majesties, and the government; heartily wishing it might be distributed throughout the whole kingdom
