Divers cases of conscience satisfactorily resolved. Severall controversies pithily discussed. Various common-places throughly handled. Sundry errors and heresies substantially confuted. Very many dark and obscure places of scripture, which occasionally occur, perspicuously opened. Being the substance of thirty years Wednesdayes lectures at Black-fryers London. By that holy and learned divine Wilia Gouge, ... Before which is prefixed a narrative of his life and death. Whereunto is added two alphabeticall tables. ...
