Title
The pollution of universitie-learning, or, Sciences (falsly so called) whereby most of the youth are so infected, and both they and their parents so deceived, that when they come to age, they prove either unprofitable or hurtfull members to the Common-wealth, as now in these dangerous dayes all the truly godly have dolefull exeperience; as it was well observed almost threescore yeers agoe, by that faithfull martyr of Iesus Christ, Mr. Henry Barrow, in divers of his bookes for separate or independent churches. The evill of which kinde of learning so attained, with many others flowing from thence, may be remedied henceforth by the grave determination of the King and Parliament..
