About this Item

John Philips' rejoinder to the Bishop of Oxford's plea for a sort of religious tolerance or 'repeal' of 'his most bitter Invectives against the Nonconformists'. Quarto size publication bound in quarter sheepskin over renewed marbled boards. The title page has been laid down, now facing the first page of text; some loss to lower inner corner, paper repair along gutter to verso. The text collates complete: ii, pp22; a couple of old creases to leaves and a couple of leaves trimmed close affecting page numbers. The author, John Philips, 1631-1706, is named in an early hand on the title page as 'Nephew to John Milton' for whom he also served as unofficial secretary for a period. This pamphlet dates from the moment of crisis at the end of James II's reign that prompted the revolutionary settlement which conferred the throne on William and Mary.
