Description

First edition, 71, [1]pp., contemporary signature on title, blank outer corners of title chipped, title browned, disbound. Platt, of Standish near Wigan, proposed himself as candidate for ordination at Chester but since he showed no sign of piety, Christian humility or any other virtue, his reasoning is not clear. He required a recommendation from the rector of Standish, which he apparently considered a tiresome formality; and he was profoundly hurt when Mr. Perryn said no, on the grounds that Platt ìhad made a buffoon of himself, standing on tables, talking about religion.î Apparently unrecorded, not found on JISC or OCLC.
