Author
Title
Reasons for abrogating the test, imposed upon all members of Parliament anno 1678. Octob. 30. In these words, I A.B. do solemnly and sincerely, in the presence of God, profess, testifie, and declare, that I do believe that in the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper there is not any transubstantiation of the elements of bread and wine into the body and blood of Christ, at, or after the consecration thereof by any person whatsoever; and that the invocation or adoration of the Virgin Mary, or any other saint, and the sacrifice of the mass, as they are now used in the Church of Rome, are superstitious and idolatrous. First written for the author's own satisfaction; and now published for the benefit of all others whom it may concern.
