Book Details
First Sentence
"Mooved by the sundry exclamations of many seditious sectists in this age, who, in the fatnes and ranknes of a peacable common-wealth, grow up like unsavery tufts of grasse, which, though outwardly greene and fresh to the eye, yet are they both unpleasant and unprofitable, beeing too sower for food, and too ranke for fodder; these men, like the ancient Germans, affecting no fashion but their owne, would draw other nations to bee slovens like them-selves, and, undertaking to purifie and reforme the sacred bodies of the church and common-weale (in the trew use of both which they are altogether ignorant), would but like artlesse phisitions, for experiment sake, rather minister pils to poyson the whole body, then cordials to preserve any, or the least part."
