Lightly rubbed, marked, and scored, spines sunned. Marbled endpapers, recent bookplate of Robert J. Hayhurst to FEP of first mentioned volume, scattered foxing. Attractively bound first editions of two anti-Catholic polemics by Anglican clergyman, and scholar of dissenting Protestant Churches, Edward Stillingfleet (1635-1699). The works were written in part as a response to Roman Catholic controversialist Thomas Godden's (1622- 1688) continued refutation of Stillingfleet's charge that all Catholics were idolators and their doctrines recent inventions; a notion which sparked a lengthy published argument between the two (and later involved other prominent Anglicans who had converted to Rome) beginning with the printing of Stillingfleet's A Discourse Concerning the Idolatry Practised in the Church of Rome (1671).
