Leather. Condition: Very Good. First Edition, First Printing. 33p. A 17th-century pamphlet that has been bound in 3/4 navy blue leather with marbled boards. Very good condition, and attractively bound. Mild rubbing at the corners and at the tips of the spine. Corners of endpapers tanned along the edges. A few pages have lightly chipped top corners, not affecting the text. Early owner's notation at top of title page, and the same owner has hand-corrected a few errors in the pagination. Save for a few age-related blemishes and very faint underlining on page 4, the text is clean, and the binding is tight. Henry Care (1646-1688) was an English anti-Catholic propagandist who also criticized the Church of England for supposed "popish" sympathies.

Disbound. Condition: Good. None (illustrator). First edition. Two politically fuelled pamphlets regarding the fallout following James II's Penal Laws. These pamphlets directly relate to the Seven Bishops' petition. The Seven Bishops were members of the Church of England who were tried and acquitted for seditious libel. The bishops include William Sancroft, the Archbishop of Canterbury. The seven men opposed James II's 'Declaration of Indulgence' which was supposedly a step towards establishing religious freedom in the British Isles. Many suspected that it was to suit the Catholic King's own agenda. The first pamphlet to this set regards the petition and is stated as being written by 'A true member of the Church of England.' There were two versions of this work published in the same year, an eight page edition and an eleven. This is the eleven page edition. This work, addressed to the Archbishop of Canterbury and the other six men, tells them that they are disrespecting the King by protesting his divine right. The individual discusses the Act in detail and the author tells the Bishops that they have 'divided yourselves from a loyal, judicious and religious part of the church you profess yourselves members of'. ESTC Reference R4980. The second work to this set is 'an Answer to a Paper Importing a Petition of the Archbishop of Canterbury and Six Other Bishops to His Majesty' which has been attributed to Henry Care. Care was a Whig propagandist who wrote many anti-Catholic works. It is believed that he founded 'The English Liberties'. ESTC R35842. Both pamphlets collated, complete. Two contemporary sources regarding the religious and political problems during the seventeenth century and an interesting insight into contemporary opinion regarding the Seven Bishops. It was this event that contributed heavily to the anti-Catholic riots of 1688 and the Glorious Revolution. Disbound, as is usually called for. Externally, sound with minor chips to the extremities. Large loss to the front wrap of 'An Address'. Prior owner's inscriptions to the top corner of all leaves, as pagination from when they were originally bound. Internally, both pamphlets are generally firmly bound. Pages are slightly age toned with the odd handling marks and spots. Good. book.
