Description:
|
Wallington talks about writing his previous books 'in the yeere 1640 & 1641' before beginning 'Great marcys continued, or yet God is good to Israel' in 'this yeere 1645'. He laments the sinful state of the country in general and cites the plague epidemic of 1625 as an example of God's judgement. Catchword at the foot of the page.
