A peaceable resolution of conscience touching our present impositions. Wherein loyalty & obedience are proposed, and settled upon their true foundation in Scripture, reason, and the constitution of this kingdom, against all resistance of the present powers: and for complyance with the laws, so far as may be in order to union. With a draught, or speciment of a bill for accomodation.
