A Conversation between Mr. ROBERT SMITH and Mr. WILLIAM FLOWER, concerning the Crime with which the latter stood charged, of having struck and wounded a Popish Priest, while officiating before the Altar, at Westminster.
SMITH. FRIEND, forasmuch as I understand that you do profess the gospel, and also have done so a long season, I am bold to come unto you, and in the way of communication to demand and learn a truth at your own mouth, of certain things by you committed, to the astonishment not only of me, but of divers others that also profess the truth.
FLOWER. I praise God for his great goodness in showing me the light of his holy word: and I give you my hearty thanks for your visitation, intending by God's grace to declare all the truth that you shall demand lawfully of me, in all things.
FLOWER. I praise God for his great goodness in shewing me the light of his holy word: and I give you my hearty thanks for your visitation, intending by God's grace to declare all the truth that you shall demand lawfully of me, in all things.
