The plain mans path-way to heaven
The plain mans path-way to heaven wherein every man may clearly see whether he shall be saved or damned. / Set forth dialogue-wise for the better understanding of the simple, by Arthur Dent, preacher of the word of God at South-Shoobery in Essex.
London: printed by Ja. Young for G. Lathum, 1643

As if a man should join unto the head of a Lion, the neck of a Bear, the body of a Wolfe, and the legs of a For, were it not a monstrous thing? would it not make a monstrous creature? Even such a thing they go about, which would have swearers, drunkards, whoremongers, and such like, to be the members of Christ, and to have life and salvation by him. But sith you do so much presume on Christ, I pray you let me ask you a question.
