Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. First Edition. 1st ed. Edinburgh: King James his College, by George Anderson. Bound in later 1/4 calf over marbled boards. Small 4to. 48 pages. "And thou Britain especially Scotland, my dear country, the purest portion of Christ's Church in the world this day, assure thyself, and I assure thee, f…or I know it, that thy good people are as sheep in the midst of wolves." P. 17. A reformed (Early Presbyterian) anti-Catholic tract by a Scottish minister. In historical context, in 1638 during the year this tract was printed by Aberthany, King Charles Star Chamber sentenced other Puritan writers and pamphlet distributors to public flogging. The King raised an army to combat the Scottish Covenanters, but finding difficulty financing it was forced to call upon Parliament. In 1639m Parliament's refusal to adhere to Royal dictates created a constitutional crisis and piled the tinder for the English Civil War. Refs: Pollard & Redgrave 72; Hazlitt II, page 2. Abernethy.

Añadir al carritoHardcover. Condición: Very Good. First Edition. Black leather spine & corners over marbled paper-covered boards, binding probably 19th or early 20th century, 7-1/2" x 5-3/4"; [2], 46, + 48 pp. Different devices to each title page, page edges stained red & they appear to be untrimmed. Two anti-Catholic tracts: Ramsay's is theolog…ical, and Abernathie "sometime Jesuit, now penitent sinner" is more sensational, and more typical of converted-Catholic tracts. "I speak nothing of their brutish and Sodomistic life, worse than that of the Pagans, described by the Apostle, which although it be not universall thorow all the popes dominions; yet it is common and notorious in the privie chamber (that is Italie) ofthe Babylonish whoore, and to me by auricular confession. Neither touch I that superstitious and hypocriticall life in publick of their ghostly Fathers, and their odious licentious lives in their private cloisters and chambers.almsot hourely familiar conference with women of all conditions, both publickly and privately." Ramsay was sympathetic to King Charles I, and was deposed from his various positions twice for it.
