COFFEE-HOUSE (the) preachers; or
high-church divinity corrected. Being
a sermon preached before the Mayor
and Aldermen of Colchester, at the
election of a new mayor for that town,
to the exceeding reproof and correction
of a new high-church doctrine, lately
maintained there by sundry clergymen
of the church of England, to the eternal
Ishame and scandal of their morals:
viz. that 'tis lawful to swear by the
name of God in common discourse,
provided the thing be true we swear to.
With a prefatory introduction, declar-
ing the occasion of this horrid assertion,
and reciting a former sermon, preached
on the late thanksgiving, with the
treatment the author met with on that
occasion.
