A very long : curious and extraordinary sermon, preached on Wednesday, March 14, 1732, at a noted chapel in Westminster, from these words of St. Luke, C.ii. V.1. And it came to pass in those days that a decree went out, that all the world should be taxed. With some practical observations and uses suited to the present times. By Robert Vyner, D.D. and rector of the said chapel. N.B. This pamphlet contains the genuine sermon, as advertised in the Craftsman, and is sold at so small a price as six-pence on account of another already published at the price of thirteen pence half-penny; and notwithstanding the Smallness of the Price of this genuine Pamphlet, there is an Addition of An Excise Hymn.
