The Whole Treatise of the Cases of Conscience
The whole treatise of the cases of conscience distinguished into three books: the first whereof is revised and corrected in sundry places, and the other two annexed. Taught and delivered by M. W. Perkins in his holy-day lectures, carefully examined by his own briefs, and now published together for the common good, by T. Pickering Bachelor of Divinity. Whereunto is adjoined a twofold table: one of the heads and number of the questions propounded and resolved; another of the principal texts of Scripture which are either explained, or vindicated from corrupt interpretation.The whole treatise of the cases of conscience distinguished into three bookes: the first whereof is revised and corrected in sundrie places, and the other two annexed.

When the old world in the days of Noah, had grown to much impiety, and wickedness, the Lord appointed a certain space of 120. years, for their repentance and conversion; at the very end and term whereof, 1he brought the flood upon them, and not before. For if we compare the particular circumstances of time, noted in the 7. of Genesis, with that which S. Peter writeth, 1. Pet. 3. 20. Ye shall find, that the inundation of waters came upon the earth, at the very point of time before determined.
