Moderation and Power in Church, State, and Playhouses
A lengthy discourse argues for strong laws against vice and occasional conformity, citing John Calvin and critiquing penalties for dissenters who attend plays. It questions the impact on church unity, royal favor, and officer qualification, then catalogs political tracts and pamphlets on religion, loyalty, and public reform with prices and publishers.
