Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Testimony to the Truth of God, as Held by the People Called Quakers: Being a Short Vindication of Them From the Abuses and Misrepresentations Often Put Upon Them, &C., 1698
The Editor has ventured to introduce in an Appendix some extracts from several of our approved writings, in further illustration of some of the subjects of doctrine touched upon by W. Penn. In selecting these, it has been his endeavour to take such passages as combined deep instruction with doctrinal elucidation. Many others might have been added of equal or superior excellency, from the rich store of religious testimony which our early works present to us: indeed, the difficulty with the Editor was, where to begin and where to stop, in making any selection: but conciseness has been an object very much in his view.
