With some remarks (in the introduction) upon the New-Star-Chamber, or late course of the court of King's-Bench. Of the natur of a libel, and scandalum magnatum. And in the conclusion, hinting at some mathematical untruths and escapes in the common-prayer-book, both as to doctrine and discipline: and what bishops were, are, and should be; and concerning ordination.
