The miraculous child: or, Wonderful news from Manchester. : A most true and certain account, how one Charles Bennet, a child but three years old (on the 22. of June 1679.) doth speak Latine, Greek and Hebrew, though never taught those languages; and answers all questions relating to the Bible, &c. in a wonderful manner. And is now brought up to be presented to the King. Having all along on his journey, been visited at Coventry, and other places by most of the ministers and other learned men; to whom he gives such satisfaction, that they depart with wonder and amazement. If any question the certainty of this relation, let them repair to Mr. Nightingal's at the Bear Inn in West-Smithfield (where this child now resides) and they may be abundantly satisfied
