The Act of the vi. Articles.
The Acte of the vi. Articles.
In which Parliament Synod, or convocation, certain Articles, matters and questions, touching religion, were decreed by certain prelates,1 to the number especially of 6. commonly called the 6. Articles (or the whip with 6. strings) to be had & received among the kings subjects in pretence of unity.

Henry, & of Queen Mary, can so well declare, as I pray God, never the like be felt hereafter.
