The clergy's plea for settled and forced maintenance from the quakers : By tithes, offerings, oblations, fees for marriages, baptism, alias rantism, burials, &c. Examined, and proved to be contrary to scripture, right reason, and the laws and canons of the church. And also inconsistent with their oaths against simony, and of canonical obedience; which, with pluralities and non-residence, are, and will continue to be, a very great scandal to the established church, until the legislature please to reform the same. By Philalethes.
