The poor mechanick's plea, against the rich clergy's oppression. Shewing, tithes are no gospel-ministers maintenance in a brief and plain method, how that tithes (as now paid) are both inconsistent with the dispensation of the law, and dispensation of the Gospel. Also, how they were brought into the church many hundred years after Christ, and testified against by several ancient Christians and martyrs. With several sober reasons against the payment thereof.
