The pattern of wholesome words. Or a collection of such truths as are of necessity to be believed unto salvation separated out of the body of all theology made evident by infallible plain proofs of Scripture. And withal, the several uses such principles should be put to, are abundantly showed. A project much desired, and of singular use for all sorts of Christians. By N. Bifeild [sic], preacher of Gods word at Isleworth in Middlesex.The paterne of wholsome words.

For too much aptness to receive opinions, if they come from men they account godly, though they have no warrant from the word. There be traditions on the ⟨p. 23⟩right hand, as well as on the left.
