1613033211<p>London: Printed by John Pindley for Samuel Macham 1613 A fair copy of the extremely scarce 1st edition in newer half leather binding. Classed as 'fair' because 2 leaves are in facsimile and a further leaf has lost its side margin which may have had reference notes. Bishop Joseph Hall 1574-1656 held high positions in the English Church and was known for his scholarship and skills in debate. He became a Doctor of Divinity in 1612 and turned increasingly from writing to preaching. Henry Prince of Wales made Hall his Chaplain in 1608 and he was invited by James I to preach a sermon on the 19th anniversary of his accession. Contents: title blank verso; dedication 4pp; text 109pp; Finis. The title page has an elaborate archway design and there are decorative headpieces and initial capitals. The binding is in near fine clean condition with title label to spine and marbled boards. The endpapers are contemporary with the binding. Text paper is lightly toned but generally clean. Page edges are a little fragile and some corner tips are turned over. There are a few small ink annotations - one on the title page one scholarly - the rest not. Leaves 31/32 and 79/80 are in facsimile and 89/90 has lost the side edge. Please enquire if you would like to see additional images.</p> Printed by John Pindley for Samuel Macham hardcover

18255308Guadalajara: Imprinta del Ciudadano Mariano Rodriguez 1825. About very good. 2136pp. small quarto. Disbound. A scarce Guadalajara imprint that comprises a series of documents relating to a church-and-state kerfuffle between the local diocese and the government over the presence of a loyalty oath in the state constitution. The council of the diocese worried that having their clerics swear loyalty to the state would force them to ignore or abjure their vows to the church and therefore objected to the presence of the oath in the constitution. They also worry more broadly about the subjugation of church authority and finances to the power of the state should such an oath be administered to its members. OCLC locates only a small handful of copies. Imprinta del Ciudadano Mariano Rodriguez unknown
