Bishops Can be Judges in Capital Cases [Womock, Laurence (1612-1685)]. An Answer to the Gentleman's Letter to his Friend: Shewing that Bishops May be Judges in Causes Capital. London: Printed by Tho. Braddyll for Robert Clavell, 1680. [ii], 21, [1] pp. Folio (12" x 7-1/2"). Disbound. Light toning, light foxing and soiling to a few leaves, early manuscript correction to p. 5. $75. * Issued as part of Two Treatises (London, 1680) and not published separately. A reply to Denzil Hollis's Letter of a Gentleman to His Friend (1679), which argued that bishops sitting as members of the House of Lords should not be allowed to take part in capital cases because they would not be allowed to apply the death penalty if they were judges in ecclesiastical courts. Womock disagrees and advocates for the authority of the bishops. English Short-Title Catalogue R34097.
