A monitor for the children of the covenant. A brief essay on that case, What will be an acceptable method & manner of, laying hold on the covenant of God? An instrument of piety, to be lodged in the hands of those, who seeking baptism for themselves or theirs, make a public profession of the baptismal covenant; that so this important action, may be religiously and profitably performed in our churches. [One line from Psalms]
