The Isle of Man. Or, The legal proceeding in Man-Shire against sin. Wherein, by way of a continued allegory, the chief malefactors disturbing both church and commonwealth, are detected and attached; with their arraignment and judicial tryal, according to the laws of England. To which is added, the contents of the book for spiritual use; with an apology for the manner of handling, most necessary to be first read, for direction in the right use of the allegory throughout. By Richard Bernard, Rector of Batcomb in Somersetshire.
