A shield of the truth: or, the truth of God cleared from scandalls and reproaches cast upon it by scandalous and reproachful tongues, which the Devil in all ages did make use of, whereby he blasphemed the truth of God, striving to present it odious in the eyes and eares of all people, that so he might uphold his owne kingdome: but the day hath made him manifest, and the Lord is come, and is coming to make war with him, and bind him, and cast him into the bottomless pit, and all who bears his image, and under his dominion is. Written from the spirit of the Lord, by one who suffers amongst the little flock of Christ, who goe under the name of Quakers, so called by the stock of Ishmael, who is knowne to the world by the name of James Parnel.
