Oh read ouer D. Iohn Bridges / for it is a worthy worke: Or an epitome of the fyrste Booke / of that right Worshipfull volume / written against the Puritanes / in the defence of the noble cleargie / by as worshipfull a prieste / Iohn Bridges / Presbyter / Priest or elder / doctor of Diuillitie / and Deane of Sarum. Wherein the arguments of the puritans are wisely prevented / that when they come to answere M. Doctor / they must needes say something that hath bene spoken. Compiled for the behoofe and overthrow of the Parsous / Fyckers / and Currats / that have lernt their Catechismes / and are past grace: By the reverend and worthie Martin Marprelate gentleman / and dedicated to the Confocationhouse. The Epitome is not yet published / but it shall be when the Bishops are at conuenient leysure to view the same. In the meane time / let them be content with this learned Epistle. [The Epistle] (satire) October 1588

Wherein the arguments of the puritans are wisely prevented / that when they come to answere M.

In this Epitome / the foresaide Fickers / &c. are very insufficiently furnished / with notable inabilitie of most vincible reasons / to answere the cauill of the puritanes. And lest M.Doctor should thinke that no man can write without sence but his selfe / the senceles titles of the seueral pages / and the handling of the matter throughout the Epitome / shewe plainely / that beeetleheaded ignoraunce / must not liue and die with him alone. Printed on the other hand of some of the Priests. [The Epitome] (satire) November1588
