  To all persons that have any sense of the reality of vertue in the pursuit of my design to demonstrate, that the people called Quakers, deserve more favour from the Church of England, than any other sort of dissenters. I shall here recite some passages in the Book of common-prayer, to which they acknowledge, that it is their duty, and that in Christ they have a power, to conform themselves in the whole course of their lives. / By Edmund Elys.

Wherein is fully declared the designs, endeavours and attempts of these zealous Quakers, for the conversion of the great Turk and the pope. With a perfect account of the event and success of the business, and of all the most remarkable passages. Also a faithful relation of their private discourses and disputes which passed between these Quakers and the pope, the cardinal his cousin, and Cardinal Pool. Also of their voyage to Constantinople, and of their most barbarous cruel and bloody death by the special command of the chief governour the great Turk. Who caused their hands to be chop'd off, their tongues to be cut out, and their eyes bored out, and each man to have a wooden stake run in at his fundament quite through his body. / Faithfully and compendiously related by John Elias Esq; who was an eye-witness to a great part of these transactions in Constantinople.

  A controversy between the Quakers & bishops, occasioned by the bishops summoning them to their courts, and calling them in question for matters of religion: Contrary to the practice of Christ and the Apostles, who never forced any about religion and worship: and contrary to the Kings promises, speeches and declarations, which saith, no man shall be disquieted for different opinions in matters of religion, they living peaceably under the government; which the Quakers do, and no man can charge them to the contrary. Together with several religious reasons recorded concerning the conscientious non-conformity of the Quakers, to those things that are by the bishops courts imposed upon them.
