Title
A gospel plea (interwoven with a rational and legal) for the lawfulness & continuance of the antient setled maintenance and tenths of the ministers of the Gospel: in two parts. Proving that there is a just, competent, comfortable maintenance due to all lawfull painfull preachers & ministers of the Gospel, by divine right, institution, & express texts, precepts of the Gospel: that glebes & tithes are such a maintenance, & due to ministers by divine right, law, gospel: that if subtracted or detained, they may lawfully be inforced by coercive laws and penalties: that tithes are no real burder nor grievance to the people; ... That the present opposition against tithes, proceeds not from any real grounds of conscience, but base covetousnesse, ... with a satisfactory answer to all cavils and material objections to the contrary. By William Prynne of Swainswick, Esquire, a Bencher of Lincolns Inne.
