A fragment from a debate contrasts the fable of the Wolf and the Lamb with a public quarrel over evangelical itinerants in destitute areas. It stages arguments between critics and itinerant preachers about preaching outside established churches and the motives of both sides, referencing church authority and loyalty to the state. The discussion touches on liberty of conscience, reform, and the conflict between parish ministers and independent evangelists.
