A defence of the Reformed Catholicke of M. W. Perkins, lately deceased, against the bastard counter-Catholicke of D. Bishop, seminary priest. The first part: for answere to his calumniations generally framed against the same, and against the whole religion and state of our Church, in his epistle dedicatory to the Kings most excellent Maiesty. Wherin is to bee seene the audatiousnesse and impudencie of these Romish bookes in their supplications and dedications to his Highnesse: their religion is dismasked of that antiquity which they pretend for it: the religion established in our Church by law is iustified to be no other but what was anciently receiued in the Church, and namely in the ancient Church of Rome.
